Organ that belongs to the respiratory system, where the gas exchange takes place directly with blood vessels.

• lungs

• alveoli

• bronchial tubes

• arteries

Gas exchange takes place in these two sites:

• Pharynx and Larynx

• Nose and trachea

• lungs and cells of the body

Muscles that participate in the process of ventilation.

• Intercostal and diaphragm

• Diaphragm and cardiac

• Conective and transversal

• Trapeze and triceps

Apart from respiration, mention other functions of the respiratory system.

• Ventilation and Respiration

• Provide the organism with the nutrients needed

• Regultate the body pressure

• Warm air according to body temperature, talk, protect from pathogens and smell

When you inhale, the oxygen travel from your nose, nassal cavities,____, ____,_____, bronchial tubes and get to the alveolis.

• pharynx/Larynx/esophagus

• larynx/pharynx/trachea

• trachea/esophagus/lungs

• pharunx/larunx/trachea

When you breathe you take in____ and remove_____.

• air/oxygen

• oxygen/carbondioxide

• oxygen/waste

• waste/air

Select the correct one according to the levels of organization

• 1. Atom/Organells/Cell/tissue/organ/organ system/organism
