The Respiratory System Explained

The existence of the human body is made possible due to a lot of significant organ systems and processes. Each one has its due importance and is indispensable; one such major organ system is the respiratory system.
The two organs needed the most in the human body to keep it alive technically are the heart and the lungs. This is because together these two make it possible to regulate good and bad blood throughout the body. Though these two work in conjunction, they have been divided into two different organ systems of the body – the respiratory system and the cardiovascular system – to better comprehend the workings of both these systems.
The cardiovascular system, which involves the heart and the blood vessels, supplies the oxygenated blood to every part of the body while taking the deoxygenated blood away from them. However the cardiovascular system could not have functioned properly without the other most important system.
The respiratory system is made up of the mouth, nose and throat – all the air passage ways – also including the pharynx, larynx and the trachea and then the lungs. The whole design and purpose of this system is the exchange of beneficial and harmful gases within the body so the harmful ones, like carbon dioxide, can be expired out of the body’s system and the oxygen is used to oxygenate the blood.
