C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

What are capillaries?

Capillaries are the exchange vessels. They are microscopic and allow substances to pass through quickly.

The sheath of muscle, located beneath the lungs, that contracts & relaxes to facilitate the breathing process is called...

Diaphragm

How do the ribs move during exhalation?

Ribs move downward and inward

During inhalation, how do the ribs move?

What body part is responsible for having air travel into the body

The diaphragm

During which process, inhalation or exhalation, does the diaphragm contract & move downward?

The diaphragm does this during inhalation, to help take in air.

How is C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP different from C6H12O6 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O + ATP

The first equation is balanced so on either side of the --> it has the same number of atoms. The 2nd equation is just showing the substances in celllular respiration

What is the tube that connects the pharynx with the lungs called?

Trachea

When does the volume of the chest cavity increase?

Volume does this during Inhalation

How does the volume of the chest cavity change during Exhalation?

Volume of chest cavity decreases

What are the nosehairs that trap pollution, dust, dirt, & other particles from the air as it enters the body as well as help to warm the air called?

cilia

What are the muscles, located between the ribs called?

intercostal muscles

What is the sticky substance in nose that helps trap particles from entering the body called?

mucus

What is the bronchus?

one of the two tubes that connect the lungs with the trachea

What is cellular respiration?

process that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen

What part is responsible for having oxygen travel into the body & carbon dioxide out of the body

the aveoli

What is the job of the intercostal muscles?

they help expand and shrink the ribs which increases and decreases the size of the chest cavity

What is a weakness of using models?

they may not show EXACTLY how the real thing works; may not look like the real thing, being made from different materials

What are bronchioles?

Airways in the lungs that lead from the bronchi to the alveoli.

Why is carbon dioxide important?

It is the gas that our body creates during cellular respiration and gets rid of with each breath. It is part of gas exchange.
