THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM



  • When we breathe in, air enters the body through the nose or mouth.
  • Then it travels down a long tube called the trachea.
  • It continues through two pipes called the bronchi to the lungs.
  • The lungs are the most important organs of the respiratory system. Here, oxygen passes from the air into the blood.
  • Finally, we breathe out to expel carbon dioxide.
