The respiratory system
Respiratory system
•The mechanism of respiration is the
process by which living cells of the body
receive a constant supply of oxygen, and
remove carbon dioxide.
•All cells require oxygen to function
•Also plays a role in regulating the body’s
acid-base balance

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
The respiratory system STRUCTURE
Respiratory system consists of
• Nose
• Naso-pharynx
Task
• Pharynx
Use resources and
• Larynx
labels on whiteboard
• Trachea
• Bronchi
• Lungs
– bronchioles
– alveoli
Complete Worksheet
to label the respiratory
system

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
The Respiratory System STRUCTURE
• Air is drawn through the _____________
and sometimes the _________________
and passes through the respiratory tract to
reach the _____________.
• The RT can be subdivided into the Upper
and Lower Respiratory Tracts.

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
Respiratory Tracts STRUCTURE
TASK
•
Read through your handout on the upper
and lower respiratory tracts.
•
Describe each with 3-4 key points

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
The Lungs STRUCTURE
An A4 Task
• Your A4 handout has some information on
the lungs
• Use this information to draw and label a
very simple diagram of the lungs.

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
The Mechanics of Breathing. FUNCTIONS
• Breathing is the process by which air is
transported into and out of the lungs.
• Two distinct phases
• It is regulated by the respiratory centres in
the brain and stretch receptors in the air
passage and lungs.
• The thorax increases in size to let air in
and decreases to force air out.

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
The Mechanics of Breathing. FUNCTIONS
Two distinct phases are:
• Inspiration
– Intercostal muscles contract to lift ribs upwards and
outwards
– Diaphragm is forced downwards
– Sternum is forced outwards
– This expansion leads to a drop in pressure (below
atmospheric pressure), so air floods into the lungs.
– O2 exchanged for CO2.

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
The Mechanics of Breathing. FUNCTIONS
Two distinct phases are:
• Expiration
– Intercostal muscles relax so that the ribs and
sternum collapse
– Diaphragm extends upwards
– Pressure is increased and air is expelled.
• During exercise there is an increased
demand for oxygen. Therefore, there is
greater work for the muscles and diaphragm

Gaseous exchange: FUNCTIONS
Gaseous exchange in the alveoli …
Oxygen in:
• Oxygen breathed in, enters lungs into
alveoli
• Passes through alveoli walls into
capillaries
• Blood carries oxygen to body cells
BTEC NATIONAL Sport
UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
Gaseous exchange: FUNCTIONS
Gaseous exchange in the alveoli …
Carbon dioxide out:
• Blood carries waste carbon dioxide from body
cells to alveoli along capillaries
• Carbon dioxide passes through capillary walls
into alveoli
• Carbon dioxide travels out of lungs up windpipe
Task: Complete diagram of Gaseous exchange in
the alveoli.

Respiratory Rates and Lung Volumes: FUNCTIONS
How much air you breathe
• Tidal volume – volume of air breathed in
with each breath
• Respiratory rate – number of breaths
taken per minute
• Minute volume – volume of air breathed
per minute
BTEC NATIONAL Sport
UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
Respiratory Rates and Lung Volumes: FUNCTIONS
Key point
• Minute volume = Tidal volume X
Respiratory rate
• Task: Complete Worksheet 53 (2,3,4) and
Worksheet 54 (1)

EVC expiratory vital capacity
IVC inspiratory vital capacity
TLC total lung capacity

UNIT 5 THE BODY IN ACTION
Respiratory Rates and Lung Volumes: FUNCTIONS
How big are the lungs?
• Vital capacity = maximum amount of air
you can breathe out, after breathing in as
deeply as you can (usually 4.5–5 litres)
• Residual volume = amount of air left in
lungs after you breathe out as hard as you
can (usually 1–1.5 litres)
