What to Focus On

  • Respiration means the whole chain from inhalation to use of oxygen in cells.
  • Respiration is a catabolic process.
  • Food gives energy only after it is broken down in respiration.
  • Lavoisier and Priestley studied gases in the 18th century.
  • Respiration was understood as a slow form of combustion.
  • Fixed air means carbon dioxide.
  • Air passes nostrils → nasal cavity → pharynx → larynx → trachea → bronchi → bronchioles → alveoli.
  • The nasal cavity filters, warms, and moistens air.
  • The epiglottis prevents food from entering the windpipe.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
