    Study Notes

    Respiratory System Components

    • Mouth and nose are openings that allow air from outside the body to enter the respiratory system
    • Sinuses are hollow areas in the head bones that regulate the temperature and humidity of inhaled air
    • Pharynx (throat) is a tube that directs air from the mouth and nose to the trachea (windpipe)
    • Trachea is a passage connecting the throat and lungs, enabling air flow between them
    • Bronchial tubes are tubes at the bottom of the windpipe that branch into each lung
    • Lungs are the two organs responsible for extracting oxygen from the air and transferring it to the bloodstream
