When we inhale air,it passes through our nostrils into the nasal cavity. from the nasal cavity,the air reaches our lungs through the wind pipe.lungs are present in the chest cavity.this cavity is sorrounded by ribs.a large muscular sheet called diaphram forms the floor of the chest cavity.breathing involves the movement of the diaphram and the rib cage.during inhalation,ribs moves up and outwards and diaphram moves down.this movement increases space in our chest cavity and air rushes into the lungs.the lungs get filled with air.during exhalation,ribs move down and inwards while diaphram moves up to its former position.this redues the size of the chest cavity and air is pushed out of the lungs

The primary organs of the respiratory system are the lungs, which function to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide as we breathe. The gas exchange process is performed by the lungs and respiratory system. Air, a mix of oxygen and other gases, is inhaled.
