,Introduction

In this assignment I am going to research on respiratory system and
cardiovascular system functions, organs and diseases. I am also going to add
pictures after each definition. I will assess the role of the nervous system in
coordinating the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. I will also research and
write information about nervous system with a flow chart and explain with a
definition.

Anatomy for respiratory system

 Anatomically, respiratory tract is divided into upper (organ outside
thorax - nose, pharynx and larynx) and lower respiratory tract (organ
within thorax - trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveolar duct and alveoli).
The discussion is mainly concentrated on the lower respiratory tract
and the related physiology.

Functions of respiratory system:

 Oversees gas exchanges (oxygen and carbon dioxide) between the blood
and external environment.
 Exchange of gases takes place within the lungs in the alveoli (only site of
gas exchange, other structures passageways.
 Passageways to the lungs purify, warm and humidify the incoming air.

 Shares responsibility with cardiovascular system.

, Organs of the respiratory system

The upper respiratory tract:
 Nose
 It is the only external part of the respiratory system.
 Air enters the nose through the external nostrils.
 The interior of the nose consists of a nasal cavity divided by a nasal septum.

 Anatomy of the nasal cavity
 Factory receptors are located in the mucosa on the superior surface.
 The rest of the cavity is lined with respiratory mucosa
 Moistens air
 Traps incoming foreign particles
 Lateral walls have projections called conchae
 Increases surface area
