Question

Describe one way the human respiratory system degrades over our lifespans, and explain one environmental condition that could cause an unnatural degradation as someone ages, including why that environmental condition harms their respiratory system. Describe how both natural aging or environmental harm can make people more susceptible to disease, explaining the link between the damage and the disease.
Think about all the processes and organ systems involved in singing. Describe how at least three organ systems work together to allow you to sing.

Discuss the path oxygen takes from the air to your respiratory system, down to how the oxygen is transmitted to the circulatory system. Without the respiratory system, why would the circulatory system be nearly useless? Similarly if your respiratory system was no longer able to effectively remove carbon dioxide from your blood, what chemical change would occur throughout the body?

Explain why a person who lived through a fire (and was pulled out of a burning building, unconscious, by a firefighter) might be more susceptible to respiratory infections.

Imagine a patient came into your medical practice. What are symptoms that, collectively, would indicate a possible respiratory problem? Describe at least three symptoms, and include at least one objective measure and one subjective measure.


please help it would be much appreciated im begging yall. i will give all my points and make you the brainliest. please dont answer something incorrect just to collect points. thank you. thank you.

Answer 1

Answer:  CREDIT 2 harryjennb the person above me~

give them brainliest~~

Explanation:

 

1) As human age, their respiratory system also ages making gaseous exchange less and less effective. With age the bone and muscular strength of tissues that keep the respiratory tract open lessen and it becomes the tract slowly collapses. The alveoli also age and become baggy losing their shape. The dead space between alveoli also increases.

This is accelerated by some environmental conditions such as air pollution and smoking. When particulate matter settles in the lungs and alveoli, it causes accelerate damage to the lung tissues and scarring. This is why people in chronically polluted areas, generally speaking, live less longer than people in cleaner environments especially due to respiratory problems they develop.

 2) The oral cavity- Includes the lips, teeth, and tongue. The structures serve as articulators. The pharynx and the oral cavity- Both act as resonators that selectively amplify to varying degrees of intensity, fundamental tones and overtones. The larynx- An organ consisting of a cartilaginous framework containing muscles and joints. The vibratile part of the larynx are the vocal folds which are the producers of sound. The Lungs- They supply a stream of air which passes through the trachea.

  3) Gas exchange occurs between the alveoli sacs and small capillaries of the circulatory system. Via this exchange, oxygen is delivered from the lungs to the bloodstream. The oxygen attaches to the hemoglobin of red blood cells. The red blood cells then transport the oxygen to cells, such as those located in your muscles.
