The Respiratory System

The Respiratory System is a compilation of the Trachea, Lungs and The Diaphragm.
When you are reading this story you are breathing in lots of Oxygen.

That Oxygen that you breath in is going down and through your Trachea.
This first part is all the beginning of the Respiratory System.

When you breath in through your nose some of the dust that you might breathe in dosent go in and through you trachea because the nose hair keep most of the dust out.

From your Trachea it goes into your Lungs, there's round about 30,000 little Bronchioles that are attached to your Trachea which lead into to your Lungs.The Lungs puff and go bigger as you breath in, and that's when your Diaphragm Drops.

In the first part of this process you were breathing in oxygen, now when you Breathe out you are breathing out carbon dioxide which is the used Oxygen from when you breathed in before.You Breathe out when the Diaphragm comes back up and the lungs aren't puffed and they're ready for the next fresh oxygen that comes from the sky.


The Respiratory System is important because its all about breathing and you wouldn't be alive if you didn't breathe because you heart will stop and the process will stop and the Oxygen wouldn't be able to go through your body.
