Describes the organs of the respiratory system and locates each, using a diagram. Explains with the aid of animated diagrams and live demonstration the processes of ventilation (the pumping of blood in and out of the lungs) and diffusion (the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the lungs). Also shows the effects on the respiratory system of varying needs for oxygen and for eliminating carbon dioxide.
