Document Summary
Also, describe the structure of hemoglobin: explain the effects of po2, pco2, ph, and temperature on the oxyhemoglobin curve, describe the transport of co2 in the blood, describe the origin and regulation of respiration through central and peripheral. Section 10. 2 introduction: the functions of the respiratory system include the following: The transport of oxygen from the air into the blood. The removal of carbon dioxide from the blood into the air. Forming a line of defense to airborne particles. This sound is then modified by the lips and tongue to produce the final vocal noises: trachea: aka the wind pipe, large conducting airway of the respiratory system. It has wings of cartilage that help to hold it open so air can move in and out with ease. Trachea branches into the left and right primary bronchi: right (right main bronchus) and left bronchi: there are two primary bronchi; one in each lobe of the lung.
