How does the respiratory system work?
Can you explain how the respiratory system works?
Sure, the respiratory system is responsible for taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide from the body. It starts with the nose or mouth, where air is brought in and warmed before passing through the trachea and bronchial tubes to reach the lungs. In the lungs, oxygen is passed on to red blood cells and carbon dioxide is removed from the body through exhalation.
