CNN) -- John Prestwich was diagnosed
with polio at the age of 17 in 1955,
which made him paralyzed from the
chin down. He has spent 50 years on
an artificial ventilator, including seven
in an iron lung.
Iron lungs work on negative pressure. In
other words the iron lung is sealed and
attached to bellows, which lower the air
pressure inside the iron lung to create a
negative pressure

PURPOSE OF RESPIRATION
If you were to design an

what would the

What would a machine need to
do?
Collect new air
Get rid of old air
Hold/store air
Connect to body via transportation system
(circulatory system)
FUNCTION:
• move oxygen from the outside
environment into the body
• remove carbon dioxide from the
body
RESPIRATORY
SYSTEM
1.External respiration
2.Internal respiration
RESPIRATION
External= breathing
Between environment
and lungs
Internal
Between blood and cell

AKA- BREATHING

Bronchioles
TRACHEA
DIAPHRAGM
Dome-shaped
muscle
attached to
rib cage that
contracts&
flattens out
during
breathing
Observe what happens
to the diaphragm.
Breathing – The Lungs

Pay attention to the role of the
ribcage and the diaphragm and how
these creates a pressure difference
so breathing can take place.

BREATHING
Breathing in - inhaling
• Rib cage
– expands
• Diaphragm
– moves downward
• Pressure
– reduces inside lung
• Result – air is drawn into the lungs
Breathing out - exhaling
• Rib cage
– contracts
• Diaphragm
– moves upward / inward
• Pressure
– increases inside lung
• Result – air is pushed out of the lung

Inhaled air

Others - 0.96%
Exhaled air
Nitrogen N2 – 79%
Oxygen O2 – 16%
CO2 – 4%
Others - 1%
INTERNAL RESPIRATION
AKA CELLULAR RESPIRATION
Between blood and cell
Breathing – The Alveoli
• Diffusion
– The movement of gas from an area of
high concentration to an area of low
concentration.

Respiration
•Be able to label the mains parts of the respiratory system.
•Know the gases in the air.
•Know the percentages of the gases in inhaled air.
•Know the percentages of the gases in exhaled air.
•Know where gas exchange takes place
•Understand the term diffusion
•Understand the role of diffusion in the exchange of gases
in the lungs
