Respiratory System!!
• The respiratory
system is a very
important system
in the body. It
allows you to
breath and survive.
A major function of
this system is gas
exchange.

What organs are in the
Respiratory system!!
• Lungs – Breathing
organ that collects
oxygen.
• Windpipe - Carries
oxygen from the throat
to the lungs.
• Blood Vessels- A tube
that blood circulates
through.

What the organs do!!
• Lungs- these allow
you to breath and
store oxygen.
•Windpipe- Allows you
to suck air down into
your lungs.
•Blood VesselsTakes air from your
lungs and takes it to
the rest of your
body.

How the organs work
together!!
http://www.sirinet.net/~jgjohnso/respiratory.html
• The windpipe sucks
air down into the
lungs then the blood
vessels inside the
lungs allow the
oxygen to pass
through the rest of the
body. Then when you
breath out your lungs
let out Carbon
Dioxide.
How two systems work!!
(Respiratory & Circulatory Systems)
(Respiratory) Oxygen is taken in
through the windpipe taken down
to the lungs and (Circulatory)
blood vessels in the lungs take
the oxygen to the rest of the
body.
Tissues!!
• Epithelial Tissue
A major characteristic of this tissue is
that the cells are arranged together.
• Nerve Tissue
The tissue help us to make
connections to our environment by
sensing stimuli. ( like a hand on the
stove)
Tissues!!
• Connective Tissue
Connective tissue is like the glue of the
body it holds the body together as one
organism. It protects and repairs, feeds the
cells and takes away waste also it helps us
grow.
•
Muscle Tissue
There’re three major kinds of muscle
tissues smooth, cardiac & skeletal. All of
them work together to make up 40 to 50
% of your body mass.
Did You Know??
• Some people who play wind instruments
have a special way of breathing.
• During your lifetime an average person
takes about 600 million breaths of air.
• When you are asleep your
breathing rate slows down. You
breathe about 12 times a minute
when your asleep and about 18
times a minute when your
awake.

Activities!!
• Take a deep breath
and blow in the
balloon until you run
out of air.
•Keep hold of the neck
of the balloon to stop
the air from getting out.
The air in your
balloon is only half of
what you inhaled.
