Respiratory system models are experimental systems that recreate aspects of human respiratory system development, function or disease. Animal models such as dog, rodent and pig can be used to ...

Parts of the model represent different parts of the respiratory system as shown here. The model, which is air tight, represents the thorax, and air is only able to enter via the glass tube which ...

The cardio-respiratory system works together to get oxygen to the working muscles and remove carbon dioxide from the body. During exercise the muscles need more oxygen in order to contract and ...

However, the structural and functional properties of the lung and airways do not change in response to repetitive physical activity and, in elite athletes, the pulmonary system may become a limiting ...

While both methods help bring oxygen into the body, one is much better for our respiratory system than the other. So, here is ...
