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 Vessels- Takes air from your lungs and
  takes it to the rest of your body.

How the organs work together!!

• 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)
8
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

Therere 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.
