Respiratory System

about 1000 times a day

Breathing...........Breathing...........and Humping

okay that was a lie, but if you are still wondering what the third main function of the respiratory system refer to my other two functions.

well since your repiratory system is your breathing body parts there is really not a food that can benefit your respiratory system

blocks blood flow.

Penicillin can be used to treat upper respiratory infections for cats so long as it is prescribed by a vet. Use the medication as directed and be sure to finish it, even if your car appears to be better.

a pulmonologist is a physician who deals specifically with the health of the respiratory system, generally concerned with the medical treatment of conditions involving the tracheobronchial tree from below the level of the vocal chords.

Air should be inhaled through the nose so that it can be warmed up to body temperature before entering the lungs. Despite this, it is perfectly possible to breathe in through the mouth, as the airways are linked to both the nasal passage and the buccal cavity (posh name for the mouth).

Yes; any process or movement at all uses energy.

But, the oxygen taken in, allows for far greater production of energy than anything one might use in simple respiration.

It is like a business investment, but one which is absolutely certain of the far greater returns for the small effort invested.

A metabolic acidosis will have a low HCO3(less than 22) and a low base access( less than-2) there may be a compensatory low CO2 (less than 4,7kPa. But in respiratory acidosis the CO2 is high( more than 6.0k,Pa) and the O2 may be low

That organ does not breath - the question is meaningless.

it is a kind of upper respiratory tract infection...ear infection, laryngitis, pharyngitis etc, are other upper respiratory tract infections

The tars and smoke in tobacco, after a long time of using, destroy the tiny hairs called cilia that line the respiratory tract. Their job is to move the mucous that your tract makes. The mucous gets embedded with these particles. The cilia then moves the mucous and particles up and out. You swallow these and your stomach acids destroy all of it. The cilia are like a janitor who always sweeps up the messes. If these are destroyed, the whole thing comes to a halt and you then have to try to cough and pull up this now thickened mess.

It doesn't.

The respiratory system is the most vulnerable one in the body because it is the one place that blood is closest to the external environment. So, the respiratory system is constantly fighting off bacteria and pollutants.

Insect respiratory system uses a system of internal tubes and sacs through which gases either diffuse or are actively pumped, delivering oxygen directly to tissues that need it via their trachea.

Unconscious people, whether they are asleep, knocked out, or anesthetized, continue to breathe. A person who is not breathing will be dead in not more than 5 minutes under normal circumstances (not counting the use of such things as hyperbaric oxygen chambers, and other special circumstances).

It is carbon dioxide, a metabolic waste. But remember, most of it is retain in the body to adjust the pH.

Functionally both the respiratory and digestive system are tasked with the extraction of the requirements of metabolism (energy in the form of food, oxygen from the air). On a more superficial level there are certain morphological similarities. Both the digestive system and the lungs have invaginations or folding of the epithelial surfaces in order to maximize surface area.

"Asthma"

The organs that make up the respiratory system are the mouth, nose, Trachea, Lungs and bronchial tubes.

Lung capacity is measured by a spirometer giving you this measurement.
Total Lung Capacity = vital capacity + reserve volume = approximately 6 L.

Any less than the normal volume will cause a loss of gas exchange. It may not seem much at first but if it progresses, it can lead to the what might be called suffocation. You can not get enough oxygen in the lungs for cell metabolism and it will finally lead to death.

Diffusion take place in these systems.
