Respiratory tract The upper respiratory tract, can refer to the parts of the respiratory system lying above the sternal angle (outside of the thorax), above the glottis (vocal cords), or above the cricoid cartilage.So that the larynx is sometimes included in the upper airway and sometimes in the lower airway.he lower airways or lower respiratory tract includes the portion of the larynx below the vocal cords, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles. The lungs can be included in the lower respiratory tract or as separate entity and include the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs, and alveoli.

Respiratory System Anatomy â Major Zones & Divisions Functionally, the respiratory system is separated into a conducting zone and respiratory zone. The conducting zone consists of the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles.These structures form a continuous passageway for air to move in and out of the lungs. The respiratory zone is found deep inside the lungs and is made up of the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli.These thin-walled structures allow inhaled oxygen (O2) to diffuse into the lung capillaries in exchange for carbon dioxide (CO2).he lower tract structures are found in the thorax or chest and include the trachea, bronchi, and lungs (= bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli). * Please note that many authorities include the larynx with the lower respiratory tract structures.

Anatomy Of The Respiratory System The last component of the respiratory system is a muscle structure known as the muscles of respiration. These muscles surround the lungs and allow the inhalation and exhalation of air. The main muscle in this system is known as the diaphragm, a thin sheet of muscle that constitutes the bottom of the thorax.

Online Radiography Continuing Education for Radiologic X ray Technologist The respiratory system provides oxygen to the body’s cells while removing carbon dioxide, a waste product that can be lethal if allowed to accumulate. There are 3 major parts of the respiratory system: the airway, the lungs, and the muscles of respiration.The airway, which includes the nose, mouth, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles, carries air between the lungs and the body’s exterior.The lungs...Click to read more below. The cells of the human body require a constant stream of oxygen to stay alive.he main function of the bronchi and bronchioles is to carry air from the trachea into the lungs. Smooth muscle tissue in their walls helps to regulate airflow into the lungs. When greater volumes of air are required by the body, such as during exercise, the smooth muscle relaxes to dilate the bronchi and bronchioles.

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM The respiratory system consists of two functional parts: (1) a conducting system to bring the air in, including the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles; and (2) the respiratory portion, the site of gas exchange, including the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar saccules, and alveoli.

Human Physiology/The respiratory system Respiratory Structures in the Lung. Bronchioles divide into respiratory bronchioles, which are the first structures that belong to the respiratory portion of the respiratory system. Small outpouchings of the walls of the respiratory bronchioles form alveoli, the site of gas exchange.

Anatomy Of The Respiratory System 8. The last component of the respiratory system is a muscle structure known as the muscles of respiration. These muscles surround the lungs and allow the inhalation and exhalation of air. The main muscle in this system is known as the diaphragm, a thin sheet of muscle that constitutes the bottom of the thorax.

- THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM. Parts of the Respiratory System The Nose or Nasal Cavity The Pharynx The Trachea The Lungs. Gas Exchange The Mechanism of Breathing Breathing Disorders Animation Links. The human respiratory system consists of the lungs and tubes associated with the lungs.It is located in the thorax or chest.he diaphragm forms the base of the thorax. Contractions of the diaphragm and the intercostals muscle change the size of the thorax and, thus, cause air to move in and out of the lungs. The main job of the respiratory system is to get oxygen into the body and get waste gases out of the body.

Anatomy Of The Respiratory System 3. Pharynx. The pharynx is the next component of the respiratory tract, even though most people refer to it simply as the throat. It resembles a funnel made out of muscles that acts as an intermediary between the nasal cavity and the larynx and esophagus.. The nose and nasal cavity constitute the main external opening of the respiratory system. They represent the entryway to the respiratory tract – a passage through the body which air uses for travel in order to reach the lungs.
