Respiration & Breathing Flashcards
Anaerobic respiration
Doesn’t use oxygen to release energy from food
How does oxygen get to our cells
Carried by the haemoglobin on red blood cells to other cells of the body
Alveolus
Gas exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide
Bronchus
Carries air between windpipe to lung
Bronchioles
Carries air to and from the air sacs or alveoli
Diaphragm
Forms the base of the chest
Mouth
cuts and grinds food, breath out
Windpipe
Lets air travel from the throat to the lungs, held open by rings of cartilage
Voicebox
Allows us to make sounds
Nose
Allows us to breath in
Production of carbon dioxide+water vapour
Respiration in each body cell
Carbon dioxide turns limewater
Milky
When does cobalt chloride turn pink
Presence of water
Why does exercise increase breathing rate
Supply extra oxygen
Removes extra waste formed in increased respiration
Blowing bubbles in limewater is trying to prove
To demonstrate that carbon dioxide is a product of respiration
