37 -3 The Respiratory System What Is Respiration? In biology, respiration means different things. Cellular respiration is the release of energy from the breakdown of food in the presence of oxygen (occurs in the? ? ? ) At the organism level, respiration is the process of gas exchange—the release of carbon dioxide and the uptake of oxygen that occurs between RBCs and alveoli Breathing is the actual mechanical intake of air Slide 4 of 37 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show

37 -3 The Respiratory System Breathing BREATHING Lungs are sealed in pleural membranes inside

37 -3 The Respiratory System Breathing BREATHING Lungs are sealed in pleural membranes inside the chest cavity. At the bottom of the cavity is a large, flat muscle known as the diaphragm. Slide 5 of 37 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show

37 -3 The Respiratory System Breathing During inhalation, the diaphragm contracts and the rib cage rises up. This expands the volume of the chest cavity. The chest cavity is sealed, so this creates a partial vacuum inside the cavity. Atmospheric pressure fills the lungs as air rushes into the breathing passages.

37 -3 The Respiratory System Often exhaling is a passive event. Breathing Air Exhaled

37 -3 The Respiratory System Often exhaling is a passive event. Breathing Air Exhaled When the rib cage lowers and the diaphragm relaxes, pressure in the chest cavity is greater than atmospheric pressure. Rib cage lowers Air is pushed out of the lungs. Exhalation Slide 7 of 37 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show

37 -3 The Respiratory System How Breathing Is Controlled Breathing is controlled by the

37 -3 The Respiratory System How Breathing Is Controlled Breathing is controlled by the medulla oblongata. The medulla oblongata monitors carbon dioxide in the blood. As carbon dioxide increases, nerve impulses make the diaphragm contract, bringing air into the lungs. The higher the carbon dioxide level, the stronger the impulses.
