Today you will have part one of your respiratory test

This part is a group test. You may work by yourself or with two partners  but not use notes or phone.  You can only talk to the partner you are working with.  Take a moment to copy out the questions below and then put away the phone.

Use blank paper which your teacher might get from the photocopy room and make a booklet on the following topics, in colour and writing clearly in pen.  Give your book a name, like "Respiration for dummies" or   " RESPIRATION, the essential guide".  State who the authors are.  Staple your booklet together.

Your table of contents ought to look like this:


1.  A diagram of the lung and labeling all the parts. How does each part condition the air as the air goes in?
2.   How does breathing in and out happen? What muscles are involved? how does your body create a seal? What nerves are involved?
3.   Carbon dioxide is a gas and it must travel through the body to get to the lungs.  What is the Equilibrium equation and, using cartoons, explain how the equilibrium of carbonic acid turns carbon dioxide into the correct phase for travel through the body.  What is happening to equilibrium in at the body cells?  At the lungs?
4.  What are the three forms of hemoglobin?
5.   What happens to the saturation of oxygen to hemoglobin under warm, acid conditions?  What about colder, alkaline conditions?
6.   How does the control of your breathing rate happen?  talk about how the muscles, the brain and the nerves and the blood send signals and work together to speed up or slow down breathing rate
7.  Write about your own topic

USE ILLUSTRATIONS AND CLEAR WRITING TO MAKE YOUR POINTS.

  22. The blood volume problem experienced in question 24 could also lead to a blood pressure problem. (a) What could happen to their blood pressure? Why? (b) How would your excretory system react to this?

Respiration notes




The picture link below shows a journey through the respiratory system



Notes are here and please get the diagram notes from me. Plus detailed notes here


Key questions are


Control of respiration
CO2 and H+ Levels
As monitored by the carotid and aortic bodies.  If these levels increase, they send a message to the  medulla oblongata Carotid bodies send the message through VAGUS NERVE.  Aortic bodies send the message through the GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL NERVE.  Medulla oblongata stimulates the rib cage and the diaphragm to move faster.

Acidosis:  pH < 7.35         too much carbon dioxide
Alkadosis: pHB> 7.45       not enough carbon dioxide (sometimes caused by hyperventilation)

Carbon monoxide:   hemoglobin has a higher affinity for CO than for O2 how would CO affect internal and external respiration?
