3) Breathing is a process of inhalation and exhalation of air through the respiratory system.
4) Internal respiration is the oxidation 氧化 of organic molecules (glucose) to release the chemical energy
stored within these molecules. It involves a series of reactions controlled by enzymes.
9) Air enters the respiratory system through the nose/ mouth. Air that is inhaled through the nostrils is
filtered by the hair in the nasal cavity.
10) Then, the filtered air enters the trachea. Trachea is the organ that is connected to the lungs.
11) Trachea consists of rings of cartilage. The trachea splits into two bronchi. Each bronchus is connected
to one side of the lungs.

12) Lungs are organs that are soft 柔软 like a sponge 海绵 and pale red 淡红 in colour because they are
rich 丰富 in blood.
13) Each bronchus splits to form a network 网状 of fine tubes 管 which are called bronchioles.
14) Each bronchiole ends 尾端 with air sacs which are called the alveoli. Each alveolus is covered 覆盖
with a network of blood capillaries 细微血管.

2. The following table shows the differences between inhalation and exhalation.

Inhalation / Inspiration Exhalation / Expiration
1. The external intercostals muscles 外肋间肌 The internal intercostals muscles 肋间内肌
contract 收缩 while the internal intercostals contract while the external intercostals muscles
muscles relax 放松. As a result, the ribs 肋骨 and relax. As a result, the ribs and the sternum move
the sternum 胸骨 move upwards 向上 and downwards 向下 and inwards 向内
outwards 向外
2. The diaphragm muscles contract and the The diaphragm muscles relax and the diaphragm
diaphragm flattens 压平 arches upwards 向上拱起
3. The volume of the thoracic cavity 胸腔 increase The volume of the thoracic cavity decreases
3. The pressure inside the thoracic cavity decrease The pressure inside the thoracic cavity increases
until it is less than the atmospheric pressure 气压 until it is greater than the atmospheric pressure
4. Air is drawn into the lungs Air is forced out of the lungs
2. When the rubber sheet (diaphragm) is pushed upwards, the volume inside the jar decreases. This
causes the air pressure inside the jar to increase. Therefore, air is pushed out of the balloons. The
balloons deflate. 泄气/缩小
Conclusion 结论
1. During inhalation, air is pushed into the lungs.
2. During exhalation, air is pushed out of the lungs.

Exchange 交换 of Gases 气体
1. Exchange of gases occurs 发生 at the alveolus through a process called diffusion. 渗透/扩散
2. Air inside the alveolus is separated from the blood in the blood capillaries by a thin wall of the
capillaries and a thin wall of the alveolus.
3. Diagram below summarizes the pathway of gas exchange.
1 ) Oxygen dissolves in 溶 入 the moisture 水 分 found on the inner 内 部 surface of the alveolus. The
concentration 浓度 of oxygen in the alveolus becomes higher than in the blood.
2)Oxygen diffuses into the blood capillaries 毛细血管 through the thin wall 薄壁 of alveolus.
3)The oxygen combines 结合 with haemoglobin 血红蛋白 in red blood cell to form oxyhaemoglobin 氧化
血红素. The blood carrying oxyhaemoglobin is called oxygenated blood 带氧的血.
5)The heart 心脏 pumps the oxygenated blood to other parts of the body. Once 一旦 it reaches 到达 the
cells, the oxyhaemoglobin in the blood breaks down 分解 and oxygen is released 释放.
Oxyhaemoglobin Oxygen + haemoglobin
The oxygen diffuses into the body cells and is used 用来 in cell respiration 细胞呼吸.
4
Glucose + oxygen Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy
6)Carbon dioxide 二氧化碳 and water vapour 水蒸汽 diffuse out of the blood into the alveolus through
经过 the blood capillaries.
7)Carbon dioxide and water vapour are exhaled out 呼出 of the lungs.

7. The effects 效果 of other toxic substances to our
respiratory system:
(a) Carcinogenic substances 致癌物 stimulate the
formation of cancerous cells 癌细胞
(b) Phenols can speed up 加速 the reaction of the
carcinogens 致癌物
(c) Dissolved nitrogen dioxide forms nitric acid 硝
酸, which corrodes 腐蚀 the wall of the alveolus
(d) Hydrogen cyanide prevents 组 织 the
production 生产 of energy during respiration
(e) Carbon monoxide combines with haemoglobin
to reduces 减少 the capacity 容量 of blood to carry
oxygen
Observation
After a few hours, the:
1. temperature in the U-tube increases
2. colour of the cotton changes from white to yellowish brown 黄褐色
3. colour of the hydrogen carbonate indicator 指示剂 changes from red to yellow
Conclusion
The cigarette smoke causes the:
1. temperature in the respiratory system to increase
2. contamination 污染 of the respiratory system
3. corrosion 腐蚀 of the walls of the respiratory organs 呼吸器官 due to 由于 its acidity 酸性

1. Amphibians 两栖动物 like frogs are organisms
that can live on land 陆地 and in water. The frog
has a moist external skin, other than lungs for
gaseous exchange to occur.
2. Features of the frog skin that adapts 适应 for gas
exchange:
• frog skin is thin and extremely 极易 permeable to
gas 透气,
• frog skin is moist as it is covered by a layer of
mucus 粘液 to enable the respiratory gas to dissolve
and diffuse 渗透 easily and
• the compact 紧密 network 网络 of capillaries 血管
below the layer of its skin increases the gas
diffusion rate.
Gills 鱼鳃
1 Fish breathe using gills.
2 Gills absorb dissolved oxygen from the water
3 Each gill is made up of thin filaments. 细丝
• Numerous filaments provide a large surface area for the rapid diffusion of respiratory gases.
• The thin membranes of the filaments facilitate 促进 the diffusion of respiratory gases into the blood
capillaries.
• Filaments have many blood capillaries to facilitate the transport 运输 and exchange of respiratory gases.
• The gill filaments are always surrounded 包围 by water so that respiratory gases can easily dissolve in
them.

4. Gaseous exchange occurs when:
• The concentration of oxygen in the
water is higher than the concentration of
oxygen in the blood. The difference in
concentration
causes oxygen to diffuse from the water
into the blood.
4. Anaemic 贫血 patients
• lack 缺乏 of iron causes a drop in haemoglobin 血红蛋白
formation
• anaemia is caused by a lack of haemoglobin.
• therefore, less oxygen is transported to the body cells.
• the patient looks pale 苍白, lacks energy and can faint 晕倒
easily.

• The difference in concentration between the cells and the space 空间 between the cells caused the
dissolve carbon dioxide on the moist surface of the cell to diffuse into the cells.
• This causes the concentration of carbon dioxide in the space between the cells to become lower
compared to the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air outside the stoma. The difference in this
concentration enables carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to diffuse into the space between cells through
the stoma.

2) Glucose content inside the guard cells Glucose content decreases as they are converted

3) Water diffuses into the guard cells by osmosis. Water diffuses out from the guard cells by

4) As a result, the guard cells swell up and As a result, the guard cells become flaccid
