1.1

Respiratory System

The human respiratory system provides an area for gas exchange between the blood and the environment. It allows oxygen acquisition and carbon dioxide elimination.

The gas exchange in lungs is called breathing (external respiration). This exchange involves inhalation and exhalation. Inhalation (taking in of air) allows us to take in oxygen to be used by the body cells. Exhalation (letting out of air) allows us to get rid of carbon dioxide from our body.

Structure of the human respiratory system The air enters the respiratory system through the nasal cavity. As the air passes the nasal cavity, it is warmed and moistened. Dust is trapped by the hair on the nasal cavity. After the air leaves the nasal cavity, it enters the trachea.

The wall of the trachea contains C-shaped rings of cartilage which give it support and prevent it from collapsing during inhalation.

The trachea branches into two bronchi (singular:bronchus) One bronchus enters the right lung, the other enters the left lung. Each bronchus branches into smaller tubes called bronchioles. The bronchioles end in millions of tiny air sacs called alveoli (singular: alveolus).

The human respiratory system

The lungs are made up of alveoli, bronchioles and blood capillaries. The lungs are located in a space called the thoracic cavity. The lungs are protected by the ribcage which consists of ribs and intercostal muscles. A sheet of muscle called the diaphragm separates the thoracic cavity from the abdomen.

Adaptation of the alveoli for efficient gas exchange The alveoli are adapted to make gas exchange in th lungs happen easily and efficiently. Here are the features of the alveoli that allow them to do so: Large surface area The lungs have millions of alveoli to provide a large surface area for gas exchange.

Visit this website for more information on the human respiratory system.

Very thin walls The wall of each alveolus is one cell thick to provide a very short distance for the diffusion of gases.

Moist inner surface The inner surface of each alveolus is moist so that oxygen can dissolve in the moisture before diffusing across the alveolar wall.

Surrounded by numerous blood capillaries The blood capillaries help to transport gases to and from the alveoli quickly.

Exit of blood Alveolar cavity

Thin layer of moisture Red blood cell Capillary

Detailed structure of an alveolus

In the alveoli, oxygen diffuses from the air in the alveolar cavity into the blood and carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveolar cavity.

Do not confuse breathing with respiration. Breathing is the process of getting oxygen into the lungs and carbon dioxide out of the lungs. Respiration is the release of energy from the reaction of glucose.

Mechanism of human breathing The breathing mechanism consists of two phases. The taking in of air is called inhalation. The letting out of air is called exhalation.

During breathing, the lungs expand and return to their normal size to pump air into and out of them.

Gas exchange The diffusion of oxygen from the alveoli into the blood capillaries During inhalation, air is taken into the lungs through the nasal cavity, passing through the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and finally alveoli.

Air that reaches the alveoli is called alveolar air. It is rich in oxygen and poor in carbon dioxide. Blood that reaches the capillaries surrounding the alveoli is poor in oxygen and rich in carbon dioxide.

Gas exchange takes place in the lungs by diffusion. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the red blood cells in the capillaries. At the same time, the red blood cells in the capillaries release carbon dioxide which diffuses into the alveoli.

The transport of oxygen by blood The red blood cells contain the oxygen-carrying pigment called hemoglobin. Oxygen combines with hemoglobin to form oxyhemoglobin. The blood cells are transported around the body.

The diffusion of oxygen from the blood capillaries into the body cells Gas exchange also takes place between the capillaries and the body cells. Oxygen has a higher concentration in the capillaries than in the body cells. Carbon dioxide has a higher concentration in the body cells than in the capillaries.

Oxyhemoglobin releases oxygen which diffuses into the body cells. Carbon dioxide diffuses into the blood at the same time.

Taking care of our respiratory system Our respiratory system is responsible for obtaining oxygen and getting rid of carbon dioxide and aiding in speech production and in sensing odors. There are some factors that can affect the health of our respiratory system and cause respiratory problems. (a) Harmful substances The air we breathe in may contain substances that are harmful to our respiratory system.

These substances may come from air pollutants such as cigarette smoke, gases from factories, exhaust fumes from vehicles and haze. The table below shows the types of harmful substances and their effects on our respiratory system.

Harmful substances

Sources

Effects

Nicotine

Cigarette smoke

• Causes addiction • Constricts blood vessels, increases blood pressure and stimulates the heart, and raises the blood fat levels

Tar

Cigarette smoke

• Contains several cancer-causing chemicals (carcinogen) • Irritates the respiratory tract, causing ‘smoker’s cough’

Sulphur dioxide

Cigarette smoke Gases from factories

• Irritates the respiratory tract • Causes temporary and permanent damages to the lungs

Carbon monoxide

Cigarette smoke Gases from factories Fumes from vehicles

• Reduces the ability of the blood to carry oxygen as it combines with the hemoglobin in the red blood cells faster than oxygen • Can be fatal in high concentration

Dust

Haze

• Irritates the respiratory tract • Causes difficult breathing in old and sick patients

(b) Diseases of the respiratory system Asthma is a chronic disorder of the lungs in which the airways are prone to constrict. This may due to the patient’s sensitivity to air pollutants.

The patient may suffer wheezing, chest tightness, coughing, and breathlessness that range in severity from mild to life-threatening.

Bronchitis is the inflammation of the bronchi. This may due to the infection by bacteria or viruses, or chemicals such as those in the cigarette smoke.

Someone with chronic bronchitis has a chronic cough and most of the symptoms of acute bronchitis, such as shortness of breath and chest tightness almost every day for months or years.

We should consult a doctor if we have a cough that persists for a week or more.

Chapter 1

Emphysema is a condition due to the loss of air sacs within the lungs. This reduces the surface area for gas exchange, leaving the person constantly short of breath. Smoking is the leading cause of this disease.

Lung cancer is caused by uncontrolled growth of cells in the lungs. Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer. There is usually no clear symptom at the early stages, but once detected the cancer cells may have spread from the lungs to other organs.

We must keep our respiratory system healthy in order for it to function properly. We must practice good habits that help improve the quality of air we breathe in. We can (a) avoid smoking (b) avoid being a second-hand smoker (c) minimize the use of air conditioners (d) keep floor and carpet dust-free (e) make sure a supply of fresh air (f) avoid open burning (g) turn off our vehicle if we are waiting for more than a minute (h) practice the 3Rs (i) implement laws and regulations to control air pollution

Q1. (a) Name the muscles that are used for breathing. (b) Explain how the muscles mentioned in (a) are involved in inhalation.

Q2. If there is a hole in the chest wall, a person may not be able to breathe even though his lungs are not damaged. Explain.

1.2 Secretion is a form of excretion.

Secretion is not a form of excretion because secretion produces useful substances from cells.

The addition of digestive juices to food materials is an example of secretion.

Excretory System

Metabolism refers to all the chemical processes that take place in the body. Metabolism may result in the production of waste products which are often toxic.

The elimination of the metabolic waste products from the body is called excretion. This is done by the excretory organs.

Defecation is not excretion because feces contain undigested food which has not been absorbed into the cells or taken part in metabolism.

The importance of excretion (a) Disposal of toxic or poisonous wastes. For examples, urea and carbon dioxide. (b) Disposal of excess substances. For examples, salts and water.

The main excretory organs in humans are the skin, lungs and kidney.

Skin

Not all mammals sweat.

Dogs, for example, have sweat glands only on the pads of their paws and they cool themselves mainly by panting. When a dog pants, water evaporates from the mouth and tongue.

The skin not only protects our body, but also acts as an excretory organ. The skin has many sweat glands which produce sweat when the body is hot. Each sweat gland is a long coiled tube.

The sweat gland leads to a sweat duct which opens on the skin surface as a sweat pore. Sweat is extracted from the blood capillaries surrounding the sweat glands. Sweat contains water, mineral salts and urea weat pore

During cellular respiration, the cells produce carbon dioxide and water as waste products. Carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood capillaries into the alveoli. Carbon dioxide and water vapor are expelled from the lungs by exhalation.

Kidneys Kidneys are the main organs in the excretory system. Humans have two kidneys found in the abdomen just above the waist. The main function of the kidneys is to filter waste products and excess water from the blood and excrete them from the body as urine.

Urine is a yellowish liquid that contains water, mineral salts and urea.

The urine from the kidney enters the ureters to the urinary bladder. The bladder stores urine. When the bladder is full, the urine flows through the urethra to the exterior.

The pathway from the formation of urine to the excretion of urine is shown below: Kidney

We should take good care of our kidneys as they help to filter the blood. They remove toxic waste materials from our body and regulate the balance of fluid and mineral salts in our body. Humans can still lead a healthy life with only one healthy kidney. However, if both kidneys fail, the patient may die if he does not go for treatment.

We must drink plenty of plain water to help flush out the waste materials. We should avoid salty food. We should exercise more and eat more fruits and vegetables.

1.3

Circulatory System

All the cells in our body need nutrients, oxygen and water. Meanwhile, carbon dioxide and other waste materials produced by the cells must be removed.

An internal transport system is needed to deliver useful materials to the body cells and remove the waste materials from them. The internal transport system is called the circulatory system because useful materials as well as waste materials circulate the body.

A circulatory system has four basic characteristics: (a) i tin i The circulating fluid is called blood. Blood transports useful and waste materials. (b) Pumping device The pumping device is the heart. Blood is moved through the body by muscular contractions of the heart. (c) Blood vessels A complex network of blood vessels carries materials to the tissues and back to the heart. There are three main types of blood vessels, namely arteries, veins and capillaries. (d) Valves Valves are present in some blood vessels to prevent backflow and ensure that blood flows in one direction only.

Blood supply to the brain Arteries and veins in the arm

Heart Blood supply to the lungs

Large arteries supply blood to the legs.

The heart and some major blood vessels

The human circulatory system is a double circulatory system. This means that in each complete circuit of the body, the blood must flow through the heart twice.

The human double circulatory system consists of (a) the pulmonary circulation which transports blood between the heart and the lungs, and (b) the systemic circulation which transports blood between the heart and all other parts of the body.
