THE RESPIRAT ORY SYSTEM

ANATOMY ANDFUNCTION OF THEHUMAN RESPIRATORYSYSTEMOur respiratorymachine offers us withthe fundamentalpotential to breathe: toinhale and exhale airfrom our lungs.Breathing, orrespiration, isfundamental tosurvival, and thoughwe own the ability toconsciously control therate of our breathing,it's far otherwise anautomated process,going on without ourhaving to consider it.Yet, as easy as it's farfor us to inhale andexhale, supporting thismethod are a numberof complicatedmovements that occur within our bodies.These movesencompass now notbest muscularmovements howeveradditionally mobile andchemical processes.The breathinggadget consists ofdivisions: higherairways and lowerairways. The transitionamong those divisionsis placed where thepathways of therespiratory anddigestive structurescross, just at thepinnacle of the larynx(or voice box). Theupper airway systemincorporates the noseand the paranasalcavities (or sinuses),the pharynx (orthroat), and a part ofthe oral hollow space.The lower airway gadget consists of thelarynx, the trachea, thestem bronchi, and allof the airlines thatbranch extensively inthe lungs, including theintrapulmonarybronchi, thebronchioles, and thealveolar ducts.
