OUR
BODY HAS A BLOOD TRANSPORT SYSTEM.It supplies the
oxygen needed by the body cells and carries off their
carbon-Di-oxide waste.Lungs work very hard .Every day we take.
about 23,000 breaths.Lungs are connected to a wind pipe
called trachea .Each comprises many branching tubes
called bronchioles.The air inhaled by us passes via the
trachea into the lungs.Blood in the lungs collects oxygen
and takes it around the body.This air is warmed to body
temperature and saturated with water vapour.When we breathe out
,our lungs pushed used air out through our nose or
mouth.Sometimes , we inhale foreign particles with air that are
trapped and expelled by coughing .The mechanical work
required to ventilate the lungs, is done by respratory
muscles.The Larynx is a part of the respiratory tract,it is
the organ of pho-nation.Its  
; function is to raise airway
pressure during sneezing and coughing.
