Respiratory Rate and Tidal Volume [pic] The total amount of air moved in and out of the lungs each minute (pulmonary ventilation) depends upon 2 factors: size of each breath (tidal volume) and number of breaths/minute (respiratory rate). For example‚ suppose your tidal volume is 500 mL (0.5 liters) and you breathe 15 times/minute. Your pulmonary ventilation = 15 breaths/min x 0.5 L/breath = 7.5 L/min. Pulmonary Ventilation = (Respiratory rate; breaths per minute) x Pulmonary Ventilation

The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen in order for the blood to deliver oxygen to all parts of the body. The respiratory system does this through breathing. When we breathe‚ we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases is the respiratory system’s means of getting oxygen to the blood. The regulation of breathing is the result of a complex interaction involving a system of sensors‚ a respiratory control center‚ and an effector system

Expiratory reserve volume decreased due to the rapid increase in breath rate. Normal resting breath rate is at an average 11.6 breaths per minute increased to 27 breaths per minute after exercise. The increase in BR causes expiration length to go below its normal 3 second interval. Therefore decreasing ERV by .6 Liters. Inspiratory reserve volume decreased due to the rapid increase in breath rate. Normal resting breath rate is at an average 11.6 breaths per minute increased to 27 breaths per

Exercise No. Respiratory System I. Introduction Oxygen is a very important element which our body needs. Without oxygen life is not possible without oxygen which helps in producing energies that our body cells need. But‚ how do we acquire this oxygen needed by the body? It is by the process called Respiration. Respiration is a process of taking in and out of air from the body. There are two kinds of respiration called cellular respiration and external respiration. Cellular respiration

The respiratory system The respiratory system is responsible for providing oxygen and removing carbon dioxide‚ heat and water vapours. All living creatures require oxygen and give off carbon dioxide. Oxygen is required for every cell in your body to function. Structure of the respiratory system: Normally air is taken in through your nose however sometimes it is taken in through your mouth and passes through a series of airways to reach the lungs. This series of airways is known as the respiratory
