Question: Respiratory System Anatomy and Physiology

Objectives: • Identify the anatomical structures of the respiratory system and their functions

• Explain the mechanics of breathing

• Explain internal and external respiration

Assignment Overview: This practice exercise helps students understand the anatomical structures of the respiratory system.

Deliverables: A one- to two-page (250- to 500-word) paper

Step 1: Explain three difficult concepts.

As you review the information presented in this lesson and the textbook, identify the three most difficult concepts (or parts of a concept) in respiratory anatomy and respiration for most anatomy and physiology students. Select one difficult concept from each of these topic areas:

• Anatomy of the Respiratory System

• Mechanics of Breathing

• Respiration

Step 2: Write an explanation of each concept.

Write a clear one-paragraph explanation of each of these three concepts. Use images from the Internet or those that you scan into the document, if possible. At a minimum, submit a one- to two-page (250- to 500-word) paper.

Step 3: Save and submit your assignment.

When you have completed the assignment, save a copy for yourself in an easily accessible place and submit a copy to your instructor.
