Description
The Respiratory System is crucial to every human being. Without it, we would cease to live outside of the womb.The respiratory system is one of the 11 organ systems of the body. It is responsible for the passage of air into our body, which is the source of life energy. We breathe in air rich in oxygen by the process called inspiration and breathe out air rich in CO2 by a process called expiration. The respiratory system helps in the safe exchange of gases from the outer atmosphere to
inside the body.
