  2. Breathing through the straws • Before breathing through the large straw, I felt fine and relaxed. • After breathing through the straw, it felt strange because I am used to breathing through both passage ways. • Breathing through the small straw is when I felt like I was being invaded. • Running around, then putting the straw in my mouth, I lasted 15 seconds • I do believe there is a difference between the city and the country because in the city there is a lot more pollution in the city then there is in the country. In the country there is more plants and trees which give off oxygen which helps us have cleaner breathe.

  3. How do people cope with Asthma? • People with asthma have a lot of stuff to look over. The biggest thing that people with asthma need is an inhaler. An in hailer is a medicine that is a medicine in the oxygen that clears the passage ways. Doctors do not prefer liquid medicines. They may irritate your passage ways. Staying fit.
