MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The respiratory system works directly with the circulatory system to provide oxygen to the body. Oxygen taken in from the respiratory system moves into blood vessels that then circulate oxygen-rich blood to tissues and cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The circulatory system delivers oxygen and nutrients to cells and takes away wastes. The heart pumps oxygenated and deoxygenated blood on different sides. The types of blood vessels include arteries, capillaries and veins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Each air sac is surrounded by a network of fine blood vessels (capillaries). The oxygen in inhaled air passes across the thin lining of the air sacs and into the blood vessels. This is known as diffusion. The oxygen in the blood is then carried around the body in the bloodstream, reaching every cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Air flows from the trachea into the bronchi, and from there into the bronchioles of the lungs.
