ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM 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. Respiration is achieved through the mouth‚ nose‚ trachea‚ lungs‚ and diaphragm. Oxygen enters the

Cardiovascular System Anatomy & Physiology The heart is the pump responsible for maintaining adequate circulation of oxygenated blood around the vascular network of the body. It is a four-chamber pump‚ with the right side receiving deoxygenated blood from the body at low presure and pumping it to the lungs (the pulmonary circulation) and the left side receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it at high pressure around the body (the systemic circulation). The myocardium (cardiac

Not only must she produce gametes‚ but her body must prepare to nurture a developing embryo for a period of approximately nine months. Ovaries‚ the female gonads‚ are the primary reproductive organs of a female‚ and like the male testes‚ ovaries serve a dual purpose: They produce the female gametes (ova) and sex hormones‚ the estrogens * and progesterone (pro-ges′tĕ-rōn).
