Importance
Oxygen is needed for cellular respiration
The body needs to get rid of carbon dioxide, the product of cellular respiration
![Page 4: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Cellular Respiration vs. Respiration
Cellular Respiration -- the use of oxygen and production of carbon dioxide at a cellular level
- also called internal respiration
Respiration -- the uptake of oxygen from the environment and the disposal of carbon dioxide at the body system level
- also called external respiration

Respiratory system needs:
large respiratory surface (lungs, gills)
a method for ventilating respiratory surface
a pump and circulatory system to distribute gases
![Page 6: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Bacteria
In bacteria and other very small organisms, cells are in always in contact with the environment
Gas exchange happens easily
![Page 7: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Respiratory Surfaces
The first respiratory surface was skin
doesn’t work for larger animals
Most amphibians still use skin for 100% of their gas exchange
Fish, reptiles, humans get some respiratory gases from skin
![Page 8: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Evolution
As animals grew larger, their body’s surface area wasn’t large enough for gas exchange through skin
Aquatic animals developed gills, terrestrial animals developed lungs
![Page 9: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Lungs
Humans have two lungs -- the left divided into two lobes, the right, three
Two zones -- the conducting zone and the respiratory zone
Protected by the rib cage
![Page 10: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Conducting Zone
Trachea -- connects the pharynx to the lungs, allows the passage of air
Trachea divides into two bronchi which divides into bronchioles which divides into terminal bronchioles
No gas exchange with blood
Warms, cleans and humidifies air
Reinforced with cartilage to keep airways open

Respiratory Zone
alveolar ducts -- the tiny ends of the airways
alveoli -- form at the end of alveolar ducts, sac-like structures, site of gas exchange

Pleural Cavity
• Lungs covered in visceral pleural membrane
• Lungs lined in parietal pleural membrane
• The pleural cavity is the space between the two membranes
• The cavity is filled with water to hold the two membranes together

Interesting Facts
The lungs:
contain 1500 miles of airways
300 to 500 million alveoli
total surface area of 70 sq. miles -- about the size of one side of a tennis court
If all the capillaries were unwound, they would be 620 miles long

Circulatory System
• The circulatory delivers the oxygen to cells all over the body and then carries away carbon dioxide
• Most oxygen is bound to molecules of hemoglobin inside red blood cells
![Page 17: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Hemoglobin
• A protein made of four polypeptide bonds and four organic compounds called heme groups
• At the center of each heme group is an atom of iron
• The iron molecule can bond to a molecule of oxygen
• Each hemoglobin can carry four oxygens
![Page 18: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
(De)Oxyhemoglobin
• Oxyhemoglobin – hemoglobin that is full of oxygen, a bright red color
• Deoxyhemoglobin – hemoglobin that has released its oxygen, a dark red that appears blue under tissue
![Page 19: Gas Exchange Lizzie Cymanski. Functions Acquisition of oxygen Distribution of gases Removal of carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/551a35b6550346a4248b56a0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
History of Hemoglobin
• Hemoglobin is an ancient protein
• Not only used in vertebrates but also in annelids, mollusks, echinoderms, flatworms, and even some protists
• Other invertebrates use hemocyanin which has a base of copper instead of iron
