• diffusion

• ventilation

• metabolism

NGSS.HS-LS1-7

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

What do red blood cells do?

• Carry oxygen from the lungs to the body cells and transport carbon dioxide from the cells back to the lungs

• Collects blood from the capillaries and drain it into the veins

• Keeps blood flowing in one direction to the heart and prevent blood from flowing backwards

• Bring nutrients to the cells and carries away waste materials

The ______ system's function is gas exchange. It brings oxygen in and exhales carbon dioxide with the lungs, trachea, and diaphragm

• endocrine

• excretory

• circulatory

• respiratory

What is Anatomy?

• The study of the structure of the human body

• The study of body function

• The study of insects 

• The study of plants
