    The document summarizes the respiratory and circulatory systems. The respiratory system takes in oxygen and expels carbon dioxide through the nose, nasal passageway, pharynx, larynx, trachea, lungs, bronchi, and alveoli. Inhaling involves oxygen entering and the ribs and diaphragm expanding, while exhaling involves carbon dioxide leaving and the ribs and diaphragm contracting. The circulatory system nourishes cells by pumping blood through the heart, blood vessels including arteries, veins and capillaries, and returns it via pulmonary, coronary and systemic circulation involving the four chambers and valves of the heart.

    Respiratory and Circulatory System

    Respiratory system - This organ system is responsible for taking oxygen and expelling carbon
    dioxide.

    Parts of the Respiratory System:


    Nose and Mouth - The entrance of oxygen
    Nasal passageway - The air passing this part is warm, damp, and clean.
    Pharynx - Throat
    Larynx -.Voicebox
    Trachea - Empty tube that serves as passageway of air into the lungs.
    Lungs - Main organ of the respiratory system.
    Bronchi - The two branching tubes that connect the trachea to the lungs.
    Bronchioles - The hairlike tubes that connect to the alveoli.
    Alveoli - These are the air sacs that allow gas exchange in the lungs.

    INHALING:
    - Oxygen enters our body.
    - Ribs move out and chest space increases or larger.
    - Diaphragm muscle contracts.
    EXHALING:
    - Carbon dioxide exits our body.
    - Ribs move in and chest space decreases or smaller.
    - Diaphragm muscle relaxes.

    Circulatory system - This system is the life support structure that nourishes our cell.
    - It functions other body systems to deliver different materials in the body.

    Part of the Circulatory System:


    Heart - It pumps the blood throughout the body.
    - The main organ of the circulatory system.
    Blood Vessel - It carries the blood throughout the body.

    3 parts of Blood Vessel:


    1. Arteries - Carry blood away from the heart.
    2. Veins - Carry blood towards the heart.
    3. Capillaries - The smallest vessel in the body.

    Blood: - It carries the materials throughout the body.


    Types of Circulation:
    1. Pulmonary circulation - Movement of blood from the heart to the lungs and back to the
    heart.
    2. Coronary circulation - Movement of blood through the tissues of the heart.
    3. Systemic circulation - Movement of blood from the heart to the rest of the body
    excluding the lungs.

    Four Chambers of the Heart:


    - The two atria are the receiving chambers of the heart, accepting blood from the body
    and from the lungs
    - The two ventricles are the pumping chambers, moving blood to the lungs and into the
    body.

    Valve - The valves are like one-way doors that keep the blood from moving in only one
    direction.
