PD: I love this drawing, but I think there is a mistake there...
Hi people!! How are you doing?What about the return to school after the long wekend??? It was not easy to BREATHE so early in the morning!! XD
Well, for you to remember that the verb is (to)breathE/d and the noun is BREATH , these are two of my fav songs that contain these words: HERE WITH ME by DIDO (the tittle of this post is a line in this song)
and "Every step you take" in Glee's version
Have you been reading about RESPIRATORY SYSTEM???????
I think you might like this video for an accurate picture of the system. WOW!!!!!
As you can see, the respiratory system is basically a long tube with two sacs at the end, with NO bones, only cartilages inside the tube (to prevent it from collapsing) and muscles outside the sacs to make them larger or smaller. This tube is covered by a thin EPITHELIUM that is full of CILLIA and secretes MUCUS to prevent bacteria and other harmful substances to get to the ALVEOLI.
I'm also including here some videos for you to revise your concepts:
1) An IGCSE video with a whole revision and a FIBROSCOPY of the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM where you'll see a real operating system :)
2) a 3D explanation on RESPIRATION and VENTILATION
3) The video I posted like a year ago in my facebook page about the effects of SMOKING on the Respiratory System:
4) Another video about Smoking
I hope the videos are useful and fun to watch (well, fun...not really, maybe just interesting) and to start studying Don't PROCRASTINATE!!!!!
See you on THURSDAY!!!

PS:And a practical work for next THURSDAY (in pairs). NO COPYING AND PASTING, I WANT THIS IN YOUR OWN NERDY TALK
1) Explain
this statement: Players who are born and live at sea level will have a smaller lung
capacity than those who spend their life at a high altitude (such as Bolivian
players!!)
2) These are the legs who has just finished a Cycling race. Why do they look like this? What for?
