What does the Respiratory System Do? When you breathe in, your body gets oxygen. When you breathe out, you breathe out carbon dioxide- waste from the body.

The Respiratory System Your body uses its respiratory system to get oxygen from the air. The major parts of your respiratory system include: nose and mouth, your trachea, your two lungs,

The Respiratory System • Air enters the body through the nose and mouth then travels down the trachea (the “windpipe, ” or what connects your pharynx to your lungs) • The trachea branches into two tubes called bronchi, which lead to the lungs. • At the end of the bronchi are tiny tubes called alveoli, small air sacs. • Carbon dioxide and oxygen are exchanged in the alveoli and the oxygen rich blood enters the body through the pulmonary veins.

The Diaphragm • The diaphragm is the muscle that causes you to breathe. When you breathe in, your diaphragm expands (like a balloon). When you breathe out, your diaphragm contracts, or deflates. • hiccups are involuntary contractions of the diaphragm
