🌬️The respiratory system is responsible for the exchange of gases, delivering oxygen to cells and removing carbon dioxide.
💨The respiratory system works closely with the circulatory system to transport oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.
🫁The respiratory system consists of several components, including the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs.
🌡️The respiratory system warms, humidifies, and filters the air we breathe before it reaches the lungs.
🏠The respiratory system helps maintain homeostasis by regulating the pH of the blood through the control of carbon dioxide levels.
