Q
explain respiratory process
A
- The diaphragm descends into the abdominal cavity during inspiration causing (-) pressure in the lungs.
- The (-) pressure draws the air from the area of greater pressure (THE ATMOSPHERE) into an area of lesser pressure (THE LUNGS)
- In the lungs, air passes thru the terminal bronchioles into the alveoli to oxygenate the body tissues
- At the end of inspiration, the diaphragm & intercostal muscles relax & the lungs recoil
- As the lungs recoil, pressure within the lungs becomes greater than atmospheric pressure, causing the air which now contains the cellular waste products of CO2 & H2O to move from the alveoli in the lungs to the atmosphere
- Expiration is a passive process
