30 paź 2023 · The main function of the respiratory system is pulmonary ventilation, which is the movement of air between the atmosphere and the lung by inspiration and expiration driven by the respiratory muscles. The respiratory system works as a whole to extract the oxygen from the inhaled air and eliminate the carbon dioxide from the body by exhalation.
How does the respiratory system protect itself from potentially harmful substances in the air? Explain how the rate of breathing is controlled. Why does the respiratory system need the cardiovascular system to help it perform its main function of gas exchange?
The major organs of the respiratory system function primarily to provide oxygen to body tissues for cellular respiration, remove the waste product carbon dioxide, and help to maintain acid-base balance.
31 lip 2023 · The respiratory system includes the organs, tissues, and muscles that help you breathe. It helps distribute oxygen throughout your body while filtering out carbon dioxide and other waste...
