Lesson
The Respiratory
1 System
Take a deep breath. Observe where the air goes as it enters your nose
to the lungs. Breathing process involves different organs in the respiratory
system as we take in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. The respiratory
system is responsible for the exchange of these gases in the bloodstream, the
body cells, and the atmosphere.

What’s In

Respiratory system consists of organs that take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide
from the body. Encircle all the parts of the respiratory system from words inside the
box.

stomach alveoli nostrils

lungs small intestine trachea

epiglottis large intestine anus

What’s New

Directions: Guess the concept being described in each item. Unscramble the
letters of the highlighted word to come up with the correct answer. Write your
answers in your Science journal.
1.I am the gas that is given off during exhalation. ONBCAR EDDIOXI
2.I go through the air sacs and into the blood. XYGONE__________
3.I am a long tube connecting your mouth to your lung .
RATHCAE _____________

4.I serve as a passageway for both food and air. NXAPHRY ________
5.I am made of body parts that help you breathe in oxygen and breathe out
carbon dioxide. PISERAROTYRMETSYS _________

What is It

The respiratory system is a system that enables the respiration process in all
living things. Breathing process is essential to both human and animals in order to
live. The process of exchanges of gases with the environment is called respiration.
Respiration is the intake of oxygen and its delivery to the cells of the different parts
of the body and the release of carbon dioxide.

Pharynx

Nasal Cavity
Larynx

Trachea

Bronchi Lungs

Figure 1: Main Parts of the Respiratory System


Nasal Cavity

The nostrils are the opening into the nasal passages that are lined with
hairs. The nasal cavity is lined by glands that produce sticky mucus. Dust, pollen,
and other materials are trapped by mucus. This trapping of air impurities helps in
filtering the air you breathe.

5 CO_Q2_Science6_Module2
Pharynx and Larynx

Pharynx is also called the throat. The common passageway for both food,
water, and air. The larynx contains two vocal cords that vibrate when air passes by
them.

Trachea
Trachea is known as the windpipe. It also filters the air we inhale and
branches into the bronchi.
Bronchi
Bronchi are two tubes that carry air into the lungs.
Bronchioles
Bronchioles are smaller tubes that branch off into alveoli
Alveoli
Alveoli are grapelike structures at the end of each bronchiole surrounded by
capillaries. Between the alveoli and capillaries, the exchange of oxygen and carbon
dioxide takes place.
Lungs
Lungs are the main organ of the respiratory system. This is where exchange
of gases occurs, oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is expelled out.
Diaphragm
Diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle that controls breathing which is
located at the bottom of the lungs. When we inhale, the diaphragm contracts and
moves down allowing air to move into the lungs. When we exhale, the diaphragm
expands, thus reducing the amount of space for the lungs and forces air out.
Breathing is very important in life. Each organ of respiratory systems works
together to circulate oxygen throughout the body. The circulation of oxygen starts
from the nostril going through the pharynx and larynx, down to the trachea,
bronchi and bronchioles and lastly the air you breath goes at the tiny-walled sacs
called alveoli where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place.

9.It transports blood throughout the body. (boold vsseel)

10.It is the pumping organ of the body. ______(earth)

What is It

The circulatory system is a transport system of the body. It is


responsible for the distribution of blood and other nutrients throughout the
body. It is made up of heart, blood and blood vessels namely veins, arteries
and capillaries. These vessels carry oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the
body.

11 CO_Q2_Science6_Module2
Heart

Blood Vessels

Capillaries

Veins

Arteries

Figure 2: The Circulatory System

BLOOD

The blood is the liquid part that is constantly flowing throughout the
body. It is composed of a liquid part called plasma and the solid parts of
formed components which are the red blood cells known as the erythrocytes
that transport gases to and from the cells. The white blood cells or leucocytes
play a vital role in the body’s immune system. They fight bad bacteria, viruses
and others that cause infection. The last formed components are the platelets
or thrombocytes. They are the smallest of formed components of blood that
help in blood clotting.

BLOOD VESSELS

The blood vessels are the vast networks of small tubes that carry blood
throughout the body. The arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich
blood away from the heart. Veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart.

12 CO_Q2_Science6_Module2
The capillaries are the smallest blood vessels which serve as a connection
between arteries and veins. When blood passes through them, oxygen, food
nutrients and wastes pass in and out through capillary walls.

BLOOD CIRCULATION

The circulatory system has two types of circulation: the


pulmonary circulation which is the movement of deoxygenated blood
from the heart and into the lungs and systemic circulation which
is the movement of oxygenated blood from the heart to the different
parts of the body.

HEART

The heart is known as the pumping organ of the body. It keeps the
blood moving throughout the body and the average heartbeat of human is 60
to 100 times per minute. It has four chambers: the left and right atrium which
are responsible for receiving used blood coming from all parts of the body and
the left and right ventricles known as the pumping chambers. When its
contracts, oxygen-rich blood is forced away from the heart for the distribution
to the different parts of the body. Between atrium and ventricles are valves,
the overlapping tissue that allows blood to flow in one direction.

The picture below shows the different chambers of the heart and the direction
by which blood flows through circulatory system.

Superior Vena Cava

Pulmonary Artery

Right Atrium Pulmonary Vein


Left Atrium

Pulmonary Valve Mitral Valve

Aortic Valve
Tricuspid valve

Inferior Vena Cava Left Ventricle


Right Ventricle

13 CO_Q2_Science6_Module2
Right side of the heart

Blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and
superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right
atrium of the heart.

As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your right atrium into your
right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve. When the ventricle is full, the
tricuspid valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the
atria while the ventricle contracts. As the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the
heart through the pulmonic valve, into the pulmonary artery and to the lungs
where it is oxygenated. Note that oxygen-poor or CO2 containing blood goes
through the pulmonary artery to the lungs where CO2 is exchanged for O2.

Left side of the heart (operating at the same time as the right side of the heart)

The pulmonary vein empties oxygen-rich blood from the lungs into the
left atrium of the heart. As the atrium contracts, blood flows from the left
atrium into the left ventricle through the open mitral valve. When the ventricle
is full, the mitral valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into
the atrium while the ventricle contracts.

As the ventricle contracts, oxygen-rich blood leaves the heart through


the aortic valve, into the aorta to the arteries and eventually into the veins to
complete the blood circulation in the body.

The circulatory system is a good example of how body systems interact


with each other to keep the body alive. Each organ of the system works
together to circulate blood throughout the body.

What is It

The body system that controls other parts of the body is the Nervous
System. The nervous system receives signals from stimuli inside and outside
of the body. The main function of the nervous system is to integrate and
coordinate bodily activities. All information outside and inside the body are
processed and interpreted by the nervous system.

The nervous system has two main parts: The central nervous system
and the peripheral nervous system.

The central nervous system is made up of the brain and spinal cord.

19 CO_Q2_Science6_Module2
The Brain

The brain is the primary organ of the central nervous system contained
within the skull. It receives and interprets countless signals. The brain makes
us conscious, emotional and smart. It is the control system for movement,
sleep, hunger, thirst and every other vital activity necessary for survival. The
brain controls all human emotions like love, hate, fear, anger, elation, and
sadness.

Cerebrum

Hypothalamus

Medulla Oblangata Cerebellum


Brain stem

Figure 4: Parts of the Brain

1.Cerebrum (forebrain) – the largest part of the brain. This part receives
sensory messages. It acts as the center of emotions, consciousness, learning
and voluntary movement.

2.Cerebellum – located beneath the cerebrum. It is smaller than the


cerebrum. It coordinates involuntary and muscle action. It is responsible for
man’s ability to learn habits and develop skills. It also helps maintain a
person’s sense of balance.

3.Brain stem – the elongated area at the base of the brain. It contains
vital centers for autonomic functions.

The Spinal Cord

It is a cordlike material in the backbone. It extends downward from the


medulla oblongata through four-fifth of the spinal column.

The Peripheral Nervous System collects information from the sense


organ such as the eyes and the nose. This information is transmitted to the

20 CO_Q2_Science6_Module2
organs of the central nervous system which deliver decisions to the body parts
that will act on the message. It is made up of nerves that branch off from the
spinal cord and extend to all parts of the body.

The neuron or nerve cell is the functional unit of the nervous system.
The neuron has three parts.

Figure 5: Neuron

The dendrites are the short fibers around the cell body. They carry
messages into the nerve cell.

The cell body is the main component of neuron. It maintains the health
of the neuron.

The axon is the long fiber of the neuron.

There are three types of neurons: sensory neurons,


interneurons, and motor neurons.

A sensory neuron is typically having long dendrite and axons. A sensory


neuron carries messages from the receptor organs (skins, eyes, nose, ears,
and tongue) to the nerve center.

A motor neuron has short dendrites and long axons. A motor neuron
receives information from the nerve centers and transmits it to the effector
organs (muscles or glands).

Interneurons are found only in central nervous system (brain or spinal


cord). They connect sensory neurons to motor neurons.

The Autonomic Nervous System controls or regulates body’s internal


environment, including the body temperature, pulse and respiration rate, and

21 CO_Q2_Science6_Module2
blood pressure. These are the vital signs. Vital signs reflect the condition your
internal organs are in.

The Autonomic Nervous System has two divisions: the sympathetic and
the parasympathetic nerves.

When a sympathetic nerve produces an effect, the parasympathetic


nerve opposes it. For example, if the blood pressure is too high, a message to
the brain stimulates the parasympathetic nerve to slow down the heart rate,
thus reducing blood pressure. Both systems are directly involved in
maintaining normal functions of cells.
