  1. Respiratory System By: Jayden, Fred, Mackenzie

  2. Respiratory System The function of respiratory system is to provide oxygen to blood and the blood will deliver oxygen around the parts of our body. The other and important function of this system is to breath oxygen (O2) into our body and release the carbon dioxide out (CO2). This exchange of gases let oxygen go in the blood.

  3. What are the major organs that make up your system. The major organs that make up the respiratory system are Trachea, Larynx, Lungs, Epiglottisand The diaphragm.

  4. Function of Major Organs The Trachea allows to travel in and out of the lungs. The Larynx is a structure made of muscle and cartilage that holds the vocal cords in place. The Lungs job is to bring oxgyen in to our body and remove carbon dioxide. The Epiglottis prevents food and water from falling down the airway. The Diaphargm controls the flow of air into the lungs.

  5. How organs in Respiratory System work When you breath in the oxygen first go in by passing our nose or mouth. It went through the larynx and into the trachea which will enter the chest cavity. In the chest cavity, the trachea then split into two bronchi and each of them divide again in bronchial tubes. These tubes then lead right to our lung where it connect to alveoli (tiny sacs). Oxygen in alveoli will be diffuses through the capillaries and into the bloodstream. Meanwhile, the waste-rich blood in our veins release its carbon dioxide out the way oxygen come in. The diaphragm helped to pull in oxygen and pump out carbon dioxide. It stay at the bottom of our chest cavity; and when it contracts, oxygen pull into our lung, and when it relax, carbon dioxide get pump out.

  6. Respiratory System and Digestive System They both share the same space in a human body. The digestive system break down the food that we eat into smaller substance (nutrients) and deliver it to the respiratory system (also all other parts in human body). This helps the lungs to have nutrients. The respiratory system helps the digestive system back by providing oxygen to it.

  7. Respiratory System and Skeletal System The skeletal system provide a very protected framework for the respiratory system (like the cell wall and plant cell). It also have ribs to protect the lung from wound or even blow. These ribs also help breathing because when the ribs cage expand it let the air in and when it return to it normal size, it push the air out. The bone cell also need oxygen to live so respiratory system transfer oxygen in the bloodstream and the bloodstream then caries oxygen in the bone cell.

  8. The Lung

  9. Two common diseases and disorders that effect Respiratory System • Tuberculosis: A bacteria infection that cause by the growth of tubercles in the Respiratory system. • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Cause by cigarette, smoke and other pollutant that damage your trachea and air sacs.

  10. Cure and Treatment for diseases and disorder of Respiratory System • Tuberculosis: The treatment for this disease is you must take your anti-tuberculosis medicine regularly. When you cough or sneeze you should cover your hand; and when you spit on a paper you must throw it to a closed trash can or flush in a toilet so the disease won’t spread for other people around. Stay away from alcohol and smoking (even people that are smoking) because it’ll hurt your lung and make the disease worse. Your activities and works have to follow doctor’s advice. • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): To cure or treat this disease, you need to quit smoking and reduce as much as possible the time you breathe in pollution air to slow down this disease. You can also join the pulmonary rehability program, in there, they help you with exercise and ways to manage your disease. If you want to cure it fast you will have to choose lung volume reduction surgery which the doctor will remove the most damage part of your lung.

  11. How can you maintain a healthy system To maintain a healthy respiratory system there is more to it than just no smoking, you can do a few other things like: Exercise on a daily basis one hour five days a week; eat nutrients such as vitamin A,C and E and the minerals zinc, potassium, selenium, magnesium and zinc; drink lots of water to help thin mucus; wash you hands on a regular basis and get vaccines to help prevent getting a flu and try and exercise in clean environments away from cites so your not breathing harmful fumes.

  12. How can you maintain a healthy system • Exercising helps lungs by helping control of your lungs and the quicker you run out of breath, when you do cardio such as running you will run out of breath quicker but if you run five days week you should feel a difference the 15-20th time.

  13. Profession of the Respiratory System Pulmonologist:They are specializer who are there to treat the diseases and disorders that are the respiratory system. This profession must first, research the symptom, then work with other profession to test out the treatment or cure and if it right and safe, they can apply it to patient. Pulmonologist are highly skilled with patient chronic disease (condition) and the complication of respiratory failure. Respiratory Therapist: Their work mostly include of helping human to breath. They support the babies that have trouble breathing, help with CPR, provide hyperbaric oxygen treatment. They do test to measure our lung function if it’s normal. The respiratory therapist also provide respiratory care, education to patients and other respiratory profession. To help with their jobs, they spent time in lab to research and create new treatments, cure for diseases in this system.

  14. Where do they work? • A Pulmonologist: The pulmonologist work at general hospitals, emergency care centers or work private for someone. • Respiratory Therapist: The respiratory therapist work at hospitals, urgent care centers, clinics, rehabilitation facilities and some go to patient home.

  15. Five Fun Facts • The hairs in our nostrils are help to clean the air while we breathe in. • If we place our the capillaries in our lungs extended end to end, the length of it will be 1,600 km. • We use half a liter of water in our bodies just for breathing a day. You can see the water vapor if we breath on anything that is glass. • The breathing rate of child and women are faster than men. • The highest record of “sneeze speed” in the world is 165 km/hour.
