  1. The respiratory system and respiration By Hannah Davenport8LG5

  2. Equation for respiration • Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy • C6H12O6+6O2=6CO2+6H2O+Energy

  3. Equation for photosythesis • Carbon Dioxide + Water = Glucose + Oxygen • 6CO2+6H2OLight ...........=ChlorophyllC • I is a genius man

  4. THIS IS A DIAGRAM OF A LUNG

  5. DIAGRAM OF A HEART

  6. Diagram of the Circulatory system

  7. My explanation The primary function of the respiratory system is the supply of oxygen to the blood so this in turn delivers oxygen to all parts of the body. The respiratory system does this while breathing is taking place. During the process of breathing we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases takes place at the alveoli. The average adult's lungs contain about 600 million of these spongy, air-filled sacs that are surrounded by capillaries. The inhaled oxygen passes into the alveoli and then diffuses through the capillaries into the arterial blood. Meanwhile, the waste-rich blood from the veins releases its carbon dioxide into the alveoli. The carbon dioxide follows the same path out of the lungs when you exhale. To put it simply, the principle functions of the respiratory system are: Ventilate the lungs Extract oxygen from the air and transfer it to the bloodstream Excrete carbon dioxide and water vapour Maintain the acid base of the blood

  8. Interesting facts • We breathe 13 pints of air a minute • The body requires about 88 pounds of oxygen daily • We take approximately 21,600 breaths of air each day • Horses cannot breathe through their mouths! • Laid end-to-end, the arteries, capillaries and veins would stretch for about 60,000 miles in the average child and would be about 100,000 miles in an adult - enough to wrap around the world nearly four times. • The heart beats around 3 billion times in the average person's life.
