Chapter #13 Respiration and Excretion
Chapter 13.1 Notes • Respiratory system is made of body parts that help with the exchange of gases. Brings in oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. • Cellular respiration is a chemical reaction that happens inside cells. • C6H12O6 + O2 CO2 + H2O • Sugar + oxygen makes carbon dioxide + water
Chapter 13.2 Notes Respiratory Organs • Nose- has hair that trap dust • Nasal Chamber- forms mucus to keep air moist • Trachea-Windpipe • Epiglottis- small flap that covers trachea when you swallow. • Bronchi- 2 short tubes that carry air from trachea to the lungs. • Lungs- 2 soft organs that exchange gases. • Alveoli- are tiny air sacs. Look like grapes (300 million).
Diaphragm sheet like muscle that separates the inside of your chest from your intestines and other organs. Breathing out- ribs in and down. Diaphragm relaxed (up). Lungs squeezed. Breathing in- ribs up and out. Diaphragm contracted (down). Lungs expand.
Chapter 13.3 Notes • Carbon Monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless gas sometimes found in the air. It is more easily picked up by your red blood cells than oxygen. • Pneumonia is a lung disease caused by bacteria or virus. Causes lung tissue to form extra mucus. Communicable or contagious.
Emphysema is a lung disease that results in the breakdown of alveoli. People with emphysema seems out of breath. Caused by smoking and air pollution. Not communicable.
Chapter 13.4 Notes • Excretory system- is made up of organs that rid the body of liquid wastes. • Urea- is a waste that results from the breakdown of body protein. • Urine waste liquid that reaches the ureter about 1 liter per day. • Nephron- is a tiny filter unit of the kidney.
Kidneys- filter blood 200 liters per day • Ureter is a tube that carries wastes from a kidney to the urinary bladder. • Urinary bladder- is a sac that stores liquid wastes removed from the kidneys.
