The Respiratory system is a system that controls your intake of oxygen and your output of carbon dioxide. It consists of the mouth, nose, epiglottis, larynx, trachea, bronchi, diaphragm and the most important organ ; the lungs. These organs all function together to make sure that your breathing is steady and properly working.
The respiratory system is a vital part of the body. It is most commonly known for it's ability to supply oxygen. But, the respiratory system can also do so much more; a few of the other things the respiratory system does; disposes of the body's used oxygen, otherwise known as carbon dioxide. Your red blood cells also play an important part in this operation. They first carry oxygen to wherever the body requires, they then collect carbon dioxide and carry it back to your lungs where it's to be exhaled. Failure in the respiratory system can lead to hypoxia, a decrease in the body's oxygen flow. Or can lead to anoxia, a complete lack of oxygen flow. There are several other functions of the respiratory system for example; participation in the acid-base balance of the body, the production of speech sounds, and metabolism.
