Description |
| The Lungs and Pulmonary System | This Khan Academy video discusses form and function in the respiratory system. All of the respiratory organs are discussed. |
| Alveolar Pressure Changes During Inspiration and Expiration | This tutorial helps you to understand the factors involved in air flow into and out of the lungs.
This challenging tutorial addresses the concept at a high level of complexity. |
| Gas Exchange During Respiration | This tutorial explains the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the respiratory system. |
| Changes in the Partial Pressure of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide in Blood | This tutorial will help you to understand how the exchange of gases between the alveoli and the blood occurs by simple diffusion due to the changes in the partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
This challenging tutorial addresses the concept at a high level of complexity. |
| Gas Exchange During Respiration | This tutorial is helpful in understanding how the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place during the process of respiration. |
| Movement of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide | This tutorial will help you to understand how the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place between the alveoli and the blood by taking partial pressure into consideration. Oxygen diffuses from the air through the alveoli into the blood and carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli. This occurs due to differences in partial pressures.
This challenging tutorial addresses the concept at a high level of complexity. |
| Changes in Alveolar Pressure During Breathing | This tutorial will help students understand how the difference in the alveloar pressure and the barometric air pressure allows the inspiration and expiration of air in the lungs. |
