The parts of the respiratory system
that are in charge of supplying

breathing
oxygen are the nose, nasal
passageways, windpipe, lungs, and
diaphragm.

System Trachea
Also called windpipe; a hollow tube
that serves passageway of air into the lungs
Bronchi
Also called as bronchial tubes; two
branching tubes that connect the trachea
to the lungs

Bronchioles
The finer subdivisions of the
bronchi; hair like tubes that connect to the
alveoli

Alveoli The circulatory system is the life support

Also called air sacs; allow the gas
exchange in the lungs
Nose
The organ through which the air
enters and is filtered
Nasal passages
Serve as channel for airflow
through the nose in which the air is
warmed, cleaned, and moistened
When you breathe in, or inhale, the
diaphragm muscle contracts. Inhaling
moves the diaphragm down and expands
the chest cavity. Simultaneously, the ribs
move up and increase the size of the chest
cavity. There is now more space and less air
pressure inside the lungs. Air pushes in
from the outside where there is a higher air
pressure. It pushes into the lungs where
there is a lower air pressure. When you
breathe out, or exhale, the diaphragm
muscle relaxes. The diaphragm and ribs
return to their original place. The chest
cavity returns to its original size. There is
now less space and greater air pressure
inside the lungs. It pushes the air outside
where there is lower air pressure.
structure that nourishes your cells with
nutrients from the food you eat and
oxygen from the air you breathe. The
circulatory system functions with other
body systems to deliver different materials
in the body. It circulates vital elements
such as oxygen and nutrients. At the same
time, it also transports wastes away from
the body.
Three major parts of
the circulatory
system
Heart
Pumps the blood throughout the
body
Blood Vessel
Carries the blood throughout the
body
 arteries
- carry oxygenated blood away
from the heart to the cells,
tissues and organs of the body
 veins
 - carry deoxygenated blood to
the heart
 capillaries
- the smallest blood vessels in
the body, connecting the
smallest arteries to the
smallest veins
- the actual site where gases
and nutrients are exchanged
Blood
Carries the materials throughout
the body
Circulation
Pulmonary Circulation
Movement of blood from the
heart, to the lungs, and back to the heart
Coronary Circulation
Movement of blood through the
tissues of the heart
Systemic Circulation
Movement of blood from the heart
to the rest of the body, excluding the
lungs
The heart is a hollow muscular organ, about
the size of your fist, which is located in the
center of your chest between the lungs. It
is a double pump that pumps on the left
and right sides. Every side is divided into
two chambers, the atrium and the
ventricle, each of which has left and right
portion, totalling to four chambers
altogether. The top chamber is the atrium
(plural: atria). The bottom chamber is called
the ventricle. The valve acts as a one way
door, allowing blood to flow either forward
into the next chamber, or out of the heart.
Each time your heart beats, it delivers
oxygen-rich blood to your body, which
allows it to function properly. Your heart
rate or pulse is the number of times your
heart beats in a minute (BPM or beats per
minute). Shorter time intervals may be
used in taking the pulse as long as it comes
to 60 seconds upon multiplying with a
factor. When you are resting, your heart
rate slows down, as your body does not
need as much blood as it does when you
exercise.
Smoking
o harms nearly every organ in our
body
o there are so many negative effects
of smoking on respiratory and
circulatory system
o having a healthy lifestyle is the key
 general. The negative effects of smoking on
circulatory system include increased heart rate and
blood pressure, coronary heart disease,
arteriosclerosis, and vascular diseases. The
respiratory diseases caused by smoking are chronic
bronchitis, emphysema, asthma, cough, colds,
Illustration of the gas tuberculosis, lung cancer, and other respiratory
exchange activity infections.

KEY CONCEPTS
The best way to prevent diseases in the respiratory
and circulatory systems is to have a healthy
lifestyle, which includes balanced diet, regular
exercise, adequate rest, proper hygiene, and
avoiding vices such as cigarette smoking and
alcohol drinking. Circulatory and respiratory
disease can easily be detected with regular health
check-up and physical screening.
