Respiration 1.

A group of students built a model of the human respiratory system to investigate the mechanism of breathing in and breathing out.

Which of the following pairs is correct? A B C D Model of respiratory system .Balloon .Rubber sheet .Bell jar .Rubber sheet .Air space inside bell jar .Balloon .Rubber sheet .Balloon .Bell jar .Balloon .Air space inside bell jar .Rubber Sheet Human respiratory system .Lungs .Diaphragm .Thoracic cavity .Diaphragm .Thoracic cavity .Lungs .Lungs .Diaphragm .Thoracic cavity .Thoracic cavity .Rib cage .Diaphragm (PMR 2004) 2. The diagram shows part of the human respiratory system.

What will happen when structure x contracts and becomes flattened? A B C D Air from outside enters the lungs The rib cage goes down inwards The volume of the thorax cavity decreases Air pressure inside the thorax cavity increases (PMR 2005)

Paper 2 1. a) When the rubber sheet is pulled down, the pressure inside the bell jar decreases. Air from outside the bell jar decreases. Air from outside enter the ballons and the ballons inflates. b)

c) The inhaled oxygen taken into the alveolus wall diffuse into the blood capillaries. The oxygen will combine with the haemoglobin to form oxyhaemoglobin. which is carried to the heart from the lungs to the whole body. Later it decomposes to release oxygen and diffuses into cells. d) Smoking can damage the lungs/ Smoking can cause cancer.
