Description: Depicts human respiratory processes through animated diagrams and animals undergoing surgery. Illustrates, through microphotography, the oxygen exchange in lung tissue, and explains that the amount of work done by the organism regulates the oxygen consumed and carbon dioxide produced. Uses animation to show the structure of hemoglobin in the blood and how oxygen combines with it. Ends with a sequence on air pollution and points out that it can cause extreme and irreparable damage to man's respiratory system.
