Nose
What body part of the respiratory system is this, "Oxygen is inhaled into the body, and carbon dioxide is exhaled, a process known as respiration."
Left and right lungs
When you are breathing out, what waste are you getting rid of?
Carbon dioxide
Oxygen is entered into the body because of the respiratory system and the body is able to maintain oxygen levels.
long-term condition where the airways in the lungs get swollen, tighten, and make extra mucus, making it hard to breathe when triggered by things like dust or smoke.
Asthma
larynx
Voice box
This part of the respiratory system allows air to enter the body by inhaling. It is warmed up through the process.
Nasal Cavity (nose) and The mouth
When breathing in, what are you bringing into your lungs and body?
Oxygen/air
What do the body cells require for respiration?
Oxygen

Whooping cough
Pharynx
Part of the thoat connecting to the mouth and nose to the trachea.
The body part of this system is a sheet of muscle which facilitates inhalation and exhalation. It contracts and moves downwards during inhalation, then relaxes and moves upwards during exhalation. What is this?
The Diaphragm
What are 5 vital signs?
When the air and oxygen is in your lungs, where does it go next?

disease where cells in the lungs grow out of control, forming tumors that can block airways and make it hard to breathe. It often starts because of smoking or exposure to harmful chemicals
Lung cancer

The bronchus
What moves air in and out of your lungs like it filters and keeps the air moist?
Bronchi
How is oxygen carried through the body?
Blood
lung disease caused by inhaling tiny silica dust particles, which scar the lungs over time, making it hard to breathe and often affecting workers in mining, construction, and stone industries.
Silicosis
Trachea
Windpipe behind your throat
This part of the system routes air coming in your nose and mouth down to your larynx (voice box), which moves air to your trachea and lungs. What part of the body is this?
The pharynx
How many times do we breathe each day? (Guessing for extra points!)
Around 22,000 times a day
where is the oxygen going to after passing through the lungs?
Cells
This is an infection in the lungs. This causes air sacs to get filled with fluid or pus, causing difficulty breathing. This can also cause a fever, chest pain and this disease/infection is caused by viruses, fungi and bacteria. What disease/infection is this?
Pneumonia
