LESSON 2:
PROCESS OF RESPIRATION
SESSION 2
Objectives:
At the end of the disussion, you should be able
to:
1.distinguish the processes involved in
respiration;
2.differentiate the parts involved in inhalation
and exhalation
WHAT IS
BREATHING?
BREATHING
It is a physical process of getting air in (inhalation) and out
(exhalation) of the lungs.
TWO PROCESSES
Inspiration (Inhalation)
It is the movement of air from the external environment, through
the airways, and into the alveoli
Expiration (Exhalation)
It is the movement of air out of the lungs and into the external environment
Inspiration (Inhalation) Expiration (Exhalation)
Inspiration (Inhalation) Expiration (Exhalation)
Activity 1.3
Bottled Balloons
Q1. What do you think does each part of the constructed lung model represent?
2-liter plastic bottle = chest cavity
Two straws = bronchi
Two balloons = lungs
Larger balloon = diaphragm
Q2. What happens as you pull down the balloon at the bottom of the model?
Answer: The two balloons expand
Detailed Explanation: The air pressure inside the bottle is lowered by increasing the
space inside the bottle. The outside air then enters through the tube, which makes the
two balloons inside the bottle 'chest' expand.
Q3. What happens as you push up the balloon?
Answer: The two balloons loosen up and return to their original size.
Detailed Explanation: The air pressure inside the bottle is increased by decreasing the
space inside the bottle. The inside air then exits through the tube, which makes the two
balloons inside the bottle return to their original size.

Bottled Balloons
Q4. How does the movement of the diaphragm cause the air to go in and out of the lungs?
The movement of the diaphragm affects the air pressure inside the chest cavity by
either decreasing or increasing the space, thus allowing air to go in and out of the
lungs.
External respiration is the exchange of gases between the air and the blood.
Internal respiration is the exchange of gases between the blood and the cells.
Pathway of Air in the Respiratory System
Air enters the nose or mouth
PHARYNX
Air enters the body through the nasal and oral cavity
and reaches the pharynx. It then passes to the
larynx and trachea. From the trachea, it reaches LARYNX
both the lungs through the left and right bronchi and
then to bronchioles. The gaseous exchange takes
place between the alveoli and pulmonary capillaries.
