  1. Alveoli : These little sacs are where carbon dioxide leaves the blood and oxygen enters it.
  2. Diaphragm : This large muscle helps you fill and empty your lungs.
  3. Nasal Passages : You inhale air through these about 20 times a minute.
  4. Lungs : Two large, and very important, organs inside your chest cavity.
  5. Trachea : This is the tube that carries air to the lungs.
  6. Bronchi : The tubes inside the lungs that lead to the alveoli.

Alveoli

  • Balloon-shaped tiny air sacs.
  • Smallest structures of the respiratory system.
  • Are the end points of respiratory system.

Diaphragm

  • Dome shaped thin skeletal muscle.
  • Located just below the lungs, separates abdomen from the chest.
  • When we breathe in or inhale, it contacts and flattens.
  • When we breathe out or exhale, it relaxes.

Nasal Passages

  • A channel through the nose.
  • Coated with mucus (tiny hair like cells).
  • Bacteria, dust, and other particles are trapped from the inhaled air by the mucus.

Lungs

  • Located on both left and right side of chest.
  • Two air filled spongy sac like structures.
  • The most important organ for respiration process.
  • The major gaseous exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen takes place inside the lungs.

Trachea

  • Also known as the windpipe.
  • A long tube-like structure connecting the nose to the lungs.
  • It catches microbes and debris from the air and also moisturizes and warms it.

Bronchi

  • Branched into smaller and smaller structures.
  • Are the passages that lead trachea into lungs.
