The key takeaways are that the respiratory system brings oxygen into the body and removes carbon dioxide. It discusses the major organs involved like the lungs, trachea, bronchi and their functions.

The main parts of the respiratory system are the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs. The nose and mouth allow air to enter. The pharynx and larynx help direct air. The trachea branches into bronchi which lead to the lungs where gas exchange occurs in alveoli.

Respiration is the process by which organisms obtain oxygen and release carbon dioxide. During inhalation, air enters through the nose/mouth and passes through the airways to the lungs. In the lungs, oxygen diffuses into blood in the alveoli and carbon dioxide diffuses out.

Preview Visuals Before you read the lesson, look at the visual called The Heart. In the left
column of the chart, complete the list of the heart’s largest structures. As you read, fill in the right
column with the function of each structure.

Structure Function
aorta carries oxygen-rich blood to the body

superior vena cava brings oxygen-poor blood from the upper body
to the right atrium
valves prevent blood from flowing backward

right atrium Where oxygen-poor blood from the body


enter the heart.
right ventricle Pumps oxygen poor blood to the lungs.
inferior vena cava brings oxygen-poor blood from the lower body
to the right atrium
Left atruim
accepts oxygen-rich blood from the lungs

left ventricle Pumps oxygen rich blood to the body.

septum separates the two sides of the heart

The Heart
Heart Structure The human heart
has four chambers: right atrium,
right ventricle, left atrium, and left
ventricle. Blood flows from the body
into the right atrium.
Follow the directions.
1. Color the left atrium orange.
2. Color the left ventricle red.
3. Color the right atrium yellow.
4. Color the right ventricle blue.

Answer the questions. Circle the correct answer.


5. Where does oxygen-rich blood from the lungs enter the heart?
left atrium left ventricle
6. What part of the heart pumps oxygen-poor blood to the lungs?
right atrium right ventricle

The Heart
Circulation The human circulatory system moves blood through two primary pathways. One
connects the heart and lungs. The other connects the heart and the rest of the body. The diagram
below shows the main parts of the circulatory system.
Follow the directions.
1. Draw arrows to show how blood moves through the circulatory system.

Answer the questions. Circle the correct answer.


2. Through which blood vessel does blood return to the heart from the head and arms?
inferior vena cava superior vena cava
3. Which pulmonary blood vessel carries oxygen-rich blood?
pulmonary artery pulmonary vein

Structures of the Respiratory System


Air enters the body through the mouth and nose. It passes through air passages and fills the lungs.
In the lungs, oxygen enters the bloodstream while carbon dioxide leaves.
Follow the directions.

Gas Exchange and Transport
Look at the diagram below. In the lungs, gas exchange takes place in millions of tiny air sacs
called alveoli. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli through the capillary walls into the blood. Carbon
dioxide diffuses in the opposite direction.
Follow the directions.
1. Use blue to color the areas containing oxygen-poor blood.
2. Use red to color the areas containing oxygen-rich blood.
3. Use purple to color the areas in which gas exchange takes place.

Circle the correct answer.


4. What diffuses from the red blood cells into the alveoli?
carbon dioxide oxygen
5. Air you inhale contains oxygen than air you exhale.
more less
Complete the sentence.
6. Air you exhale contains more carbon dioxide than air you inhale.
