in the heart
Describe the function of the respiratory system.
The system responsible for the exchange of gases between the external environment and the blood.
Describe the function of white blood cells.
To fight off foreign invaders and pathogens.
Describe exhalation. Using the words
1. Diaphragm
2. lung capacity
3. relax
The diaphragm relaxes (moves up) and inter-coastal muscles relax (come in), lung capacity decreases and air moves out of the lungs.

Describe the function of platelets and red blood cells.
Platelets - responsible for forming blood clots to stop your body from bleeding out.
Red Blood Cells - carry oxygen around the body.
Describe inhalation. Use the words
1. contracts
2. lung capacity
3. diaphragm
The diaphragm contracts (moves down) and inter-coastal muscles relax (go out), lung capacity increases and air moves into the lungs.
What is the function of a thrombocyte?
help form blood clots to slow or stop bleeding and to help wounds heal.
What are alveoli and what is their function?
Alveoli are tiny sacs at the end of the bronchioles where gas exchange occurs. It allows oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs and the bloodstream.
