Respiratory Systems Across Species: An Overview
- Breathing and respiration are different processes, with breathing involving the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs.
- The respiratory system starts with the nasal cavity, leading to the pharynx, trachea, and bronchi, which branch into bronchioles.
- The respiratory system includes conducting and exchange parts, with the conducting part purifying, humidifying, and regulating air.
- Gaseous exchange occurs in the alveoli, where oxygen enters the blood and carbon dioxide exits.
- Different animals have varying respiratory organs, with insects using a tracheal system, aquatic arthropods having gills, and mammals like humans relying on lungs.
- Amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals all have unique respiratory systems, such as birds using pulmonary respiration.
- Understanding the differences in respiratory systems across species is crucial for comprehending the process of respiration.

"Thoracic Chamber and Breathing Mechanics"
- Respiration involves steps that include changing the volume of the thoracic chamber.
- The thoracic chamber consists of the vertebral column, sternum, ribs, and diaphragm.
- The intercostal muscles aid in changing the volume of the thoracic chamber.
- The dome-shaped diaphragm plays a crucial role in respiration.
- The thoracic chamber creates negative pressure, allowing air to rush in during inspiration.
- Inspiration is an active process that involves muscle contraction and ATP expenditure.
- The expansion of the thoracic chamber leads to increased lung volume and negative pressure.
- The external intercostal muscles contract to elevate the ribs, expanding the ribcage.
- Lung volume decreases during expiration, leading to air rushing out due to increased pressure.
- The mechanism of breathing involves inspiration and expiration, creating negative pressure for air movement.

Respiratory System: Functions and Gas Exchange Basics
- Ribs are done, add D 12 P 24 36 and a stern 37 for a total of 37 ribs.
- Respiratory volumes will be read later, starting with respiratory volume first.
- Intra-pulmonary pressure is always high, indicating more pressure.
- Intra-pleural pressure is always less than intra-pulmonary pressure.
- The primary site of gas exchange is at the lung surface.
- Gaseous exchange with blood vessels occurs, leading to oxygen-rich blood.
- The five steps of respiration involve breathing, gaseous exchange, transport of gases, diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide, and utilization of oxygen in cellular respiration.
- Abdominal muscles can increase strength of inspiration and expression.
- Pulmonary ventilation involves external and internal intercostal muscles.
- Understanding partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide is crucial for gas exchange.

Respiratory Volume, Hemoglobin, and Oxygen Transport Relations
- Respiratory volume must be memorized for transport of gases.
- Modi ji is not giving NEET this time due to being busy in elections.
- Oxygen transport involves RBCs and plasma in blood vessels.
- Hemoglobin binds with oxygen reversibly in a diagram with four hemes and globin chains.
- Favorable conditions for oxyhemoglobin formation in the lungs include high oxygen partial pressure, low CO2 concentration, and low H+ concentration.
- CO2 dissolves in plasma and forms bicarbonate ions in deoxygenated blood.
- In tissues, the equation shifts with CO2 escaping, forming bicarbonate ions and CO2 again.
- Hemoglobin carries oxygen in a reversible manner, affected by partial pressure of oxygen, CO2, hydrogen ions, and temperature.
- A sigmoid curve shows the percentage saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen against partial pressure of oxygen.
- The oxygen dissociation curve is not a straight line, indicating the relationship between oxygen saturation and partial pressure of oxygen, influenced by CO2 concentration, hydrogen ions, and temperature.

Oxygen saturation in tissues and lungs
- Tissues exhibit less saturation at the same concentration due to high pCO2, high H+ levels, and low temperature.
- The oxygen dissociation curve shifts to the right in tissues and to the left in the lungs.
- Hemoglobin's ability to hold oxygen is crucial for saturation levels.
- The Haldane Effect, Bohr Effect, and chloride shift are significant factors affecting oxygen binding.
- The oxygen dissociation curve is essential for studying factors like pCO2 and temperature.
- Blood carries 5ml of oxygen for every 100ml of oxygenated blood to tissues.
- Carbon dioxide is carried by hemoglobin and is affected by pCO2 levels.
- The enzyme facilitating the conversion of CO2 into bicarbonate is crucial in tissues.
- The regulation of respiration involves neural and chemical controls, affecting the respiratory rhythm.
- Disorders like asthma and occupational respiratory issues can severely impact lung health.

Lung Volumes and Capacities in Breathing
- Tidal Volume is the amount of air taken in during normal breathing.
- Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) is the additional air that can be forcefully inhaled after a normal breath.
- Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV) is higher than 2500-3000 ml.
- Total Lung Capacity (TLC) is the sum of Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV), Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV), Tidal Volume (TV), and Residual Volume (RV).
- Residual Volume (RV) is the air that remains in the lungs after forceful exhalation.
- Vital Capacity is the maximum amount of air that can be exhaled after a forceful inhalation.
- Vital Capacity is calculated by adding Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV), Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV), and Tidal Volume (TV).
