Respiration & Breathing
Respiration
What is respiration?
It is the release of energy from food
substances in living cells.
respiration
 Sugar is oxidised to release energy, carbon
dioxide and water are formed.
 Equation:
 sugar + oxygen




energy + carbon dioxide + water
(i) sugar comes from food
(ii) oxygen comes from air
(iii) carbon dioxide is excreted thru’ lungs
(iv) energy is used for life processes or lost
as heat (keeps body warm).
Breathing system
To move air in and out of lungs for
gaseous exchange.
Gaseous exchange
Diffusion of oxygen from lungs into blood.
Movement of carbon dioxide from blood
into lungs.
Respiration- Wee SC
Breathing System - Nasal Passage
nasal cavity
epiglottis
voice box
windpipe
Path taken by air to lungs.
1 Air passes through nasal passages, wind
pipes and alveoli.*
2 Wind pipes are kept open by cartilage
rings.*
3 Gaseous exchange takes place in alveoli.*
Air Sacs - Alveoli
How air enters and leaves the lungs
The Rib cage
Breathing
1 Chest expands to inhale
2 Chest contracts to exhale
Is breathing voluntary?

Energy
What is energy needed for?
• Animals - for movement, sending messages
through nerves, transport of food, keeping warm.
• Plants - for taking up minerals from soil, opening
and closing of stomata, and transport of food.
• All organisms - for growth, cell division, and
moving molecules against a concentration gradient

Gills of fish
 Fish breathe with gills.
Gill
cover
 Gills are feather-like
structures with a rich
supply of blood vessels.
 Gills are found under the
gill covers of fish.

Oxygen passes through the walls
of the blood vessels and into the blood.
How a fish breathes out …
Carbon dioxide passes
through the walls
of the blood vessels
and dissolves in the water.

Water with dissolved
carbon dioxide flows out
from under the gill
cover.
Dolphins and whales breathe …

… through special
nostrils called
blowholes on top of
their heads.

How do different animals breathe?
 Lungs
eg. Man, whale, seal, bat, snake, dog, cow
 Moist skin
eg. Frogs, toads, salamander, earthworm
 Gills
eg. Fish, tadpole, mudskipper
 Breathing tube
eg. Wriggler, water stick insect
 Breathing holes
eg. Ant, dragonfly
Respiratory System in Plants

• Plants exchange
gases with their
surroundings
through the stoma.
