Your airways, lungs, and blood arteries are all part of it. The respiratory system includes the muscles that power your lungs. These organs work together to transport oxygen throughout the body while also removing waste gases such as carbon dioxide.
-
ALVEOLI – where the lungs and the blood exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide during the process of breathing in and breathing out. -
TRACHEA – serves as the main passageway through which air passes from the upper respiratory tract to the lungs. -
EPIGLOTTIS – a cartilaginous, leaf-shaped flap, functions as a lid to the larynx and, during the act of swallowing, controls the traffic of air and food. -
