Respiratory System. Breathing. Moving air in and out of the lungs. Inhalation. Breathing in Body gets oxygen from the air Rib muscles contract to pull ribs up and out Diaphragm muscle contracts to pull down the lungs Tissue expands to force (pull) in air. http://mhln.com.

smaller and smaller tubes called smaller and smaller tubes called bronchiolesbronchioles..
At the end of each of these tubes are At the end of each of these tubes are small air sacs called small air sacs called alveolialveoli..
CapillariesCapillaries are wrapped around these are wrapped around these alveolialveoli. .

Diseases & DisordersDiseases & Disorders
Emphysema–Emphysema– the alveoli in the lungs are destroyed, the alveoli in the lungs are destroyed, limiting the ability to get oxygen and release carbon limiting the ability to get oxygen and release carbon dioxidedioxide
Chronic bronchitisChronic bronchitis – instead of helping to clean the – instead of helping to clean the lungs, the mucus blocks your airways. The mucus is lungs, the mucus blocks your airways. The mucus is thicker and more difficult to cough up. This means it's thicker and more difficult to cough up. This means it's easier for bacteria to settle in your lower airways and easier for bacteria to settle in your lower airways and become infected.become infected.
Asthma –Asthma –disorder of the lungs in which there may be disorder of the lungs in which there may be a shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing.a shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing.
