What I Need to Know

At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:


Name the main parts of the human respiratory system.

What’s New

Can you live without water for a few days and without food for a week? How about if you stop breathing
for more than a few minutes? Yes! You will die immediately if you stop breathing for more than a few minutes.
Remember, you can survive for several days without water and survive for a month without food, but you
cannot survive for more than 5 minutes without oxygen. It is a part of the air that we breathe. Without this
constant intake of air, the cells of your body would die quickly. Our cells need a continuous supply of oxygen to
support its activity which supplies energy to the body. As a result of this energy-producing process, the cells
perform all the vital tasks and keep you alive.
The human respiratory system consists of organs in the body that help us to breath. Respiration is
linked to breathing. The respiratory system does two very important things: it brings oxygen into our bodies,
and gets rid of carbon dioxide.

What Is It

The Human Respiratory System


Breathe in and out. Can you hear the quiet sounds of breathing in and out? The air that you breathe
moves to the different parts of the respiratory system. These are the nose, nasal passageways/nasal cavity,
pharynx (throat), larynx(“voice box” or “Adam’s Apple”), and trachea (windpipe) which divides into two tubes
called bronchi. These tubes carry air into each lung. Inside the lungs, the bronchi divide into tiny tubes called
bronchioles. At the end of the bronchioles are hundreds of tiny air balloons called air sacs or alveoli. A
large dome-shaped muscle called the diaphragm is also found under the lungs.
Perform this simple activity to name the parts of the human respiratory system.

ACTIVITY 1: Name Me
Objective:
 Name the parts of the human respiratory system.

Directions. Observe the drawing of the respiratory system in figure 1. Label the parts with the given words
inside the box. Write your answer on the blank.

diaphragm nose nasal cavity pharynx lungs mouth larynx trachea

ACTIVITY 2. What a Bunch of Grapes!


Objective:
Name the parts of the lungs using the bunch of grapes model of the respiratory system.

Materials :
bunch of grapes or any fruits and vegetables that demonstrate bunching like lanzones, niyog-niyogan, lato,
cauliflower, malunggay leaves or even tree branches
Procedure:
( Note: Aplastic/real bunch of grapes is used as a model)
1. Hold up the bunch of grapes. Let the bunch of grapes represent the respiratory or breathing system.
2. Locate the parts of the respiratory system as represented by the plastic/real bunch of grapes model in
figure 2.
3. One by one gently take out some of the grapes to expose more of the branching stems. Observe its
structure.
4. Trace the pathway of oxygen using the material you have.

Figure 2. The bunch of grapes model of the respiratory system


Guide Question:

1. What does each part of the plastic/real “Bunch of Grapes” model represent, in relation to the
breathing system? Complete the table below.

Parts of the “Bunch of Grapes”


Parts of the Breathing System
1. main stem

2. two large branching stems

3. little stems

4. individual grapes

Note:

 The trachea is a hollow tube so as to allow the air to pass through, not like the main stem of the plant
you are using.
 There are only two large branching stems in the respiratory system.
 Unlike the grapes, the alveoli are so numerous that they cannot be counted individually.
 Bronchus (singular) and bronchi (plural); alveolus( singular) and alveoli (plural).

What I Can Do
Listed below are the parts of the human respiratory system. When air enters our nose it passes to
different parts before exchange of gases occurs. Arrange the correct sequence through which air passes after
it enters your nose or mouth on the blanks below.
