The Respiratory System > Systems of Gas Exchange
Introduction and Direct Diffusion
• Respiration ensures that cells, tissues, and major organs of the body receive an
adequate supply of oxygen and that the carbon dioxide, a waste product, is
efficiently removed; the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs via
diffusion across cell membranes.
• The mechanisms, processes, and structures used for respiration are dictated by
the type, size, and complexity of the organism.
• Direct diffusion of gases through the outer membranes can be used by organisms
such as flatworms as a means of respiration due to their small size and simplicity.

Skin and Gills and Tracheal Systems
• Some animals, such as amphibians and earthworms, can use their skin
(integument) to exchange gases between the external environment and the
circulatory system due to the network of capillaries that lie below the skin.
• Fish and other aquatic organisms use gills to take up oxygen dissolved in the
water and diffuse carbon dioxide out of the bloodstream.
• Some insects utilize a tracheal system that transports oxygen from the external
environment through openings called spiracles.

The Respiratory System > Systems of Gas Exchange
Mammalian Systems and Protective Mechanisms
• The air that moves from the external environment into the body must pass
through the nasal cavity where it is warmed, humidified, and surveyed for
particulates.
• As air moves out of the nasal cavity, it moves into the pharynx, larynx, trachea,
the primary bronchi (right and left lung), secondary and tertiary bronchi,
bronchioles, terminal then respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts then alveolar
sacs where gas exchange occurs with the capillaries.
• Components in the respiratory system allow for protection from foreign material;
these include mucus production in the lungs and cilia in the bronchi and
bronchioles to move matter out of the system.

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Basic Principles of Gas Exchange
• Gas is exchanged between the alveoli and the pulmonary capillaries via diffusion:
gas molecules will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low
concentration.
• The partial pressure of oxygen (PO2) is lower in the alveoli in comparison to the
external environment, which allows for diffusion of oxygen into the alveoli.
• The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) is higher in the capillaries than in
the alveoli, which allows for diffusion into the alveoli where it is exhaled during
expiration.
• The ventilation/perfusion ratio (V/Q) ensures that the ideal amount of blood and
gas is received by the alveoli for efficient gas exchange.

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Lung Volumes and Capacities
• The lung volumes that can be measured using a spirometer include tidal volume
(TV), expiratory reserve volume (ERV), and inspiratory reserve volume (IRV).
• Residual volume (RV) is a lung volume representing the amount of air left in the
lungs after a forced exhalation; this volume cannot be measured, only calculated.
• The lung capacities that can be calculated include vital capacity (ERV+TV+IRV),
inspiratory capacity (TV+IRV), functional residual capacity (ERV+RV), and total
lung capacity (RV+ERV+TV+IRV).

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Gas Pressure and Respiration
• Atmospheric pressure is the sum of all the partial pressures of the gases in the
atmosphere, including oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor.
• In the atmosphere, the partial pressure of oxygen is much greater than the partial
pressure of carbon dioxide.
• The partial pressure of oxygen in the atmosphere is much greater in comparison
to the lungs, creating a pressure gradient; this allows oxygen to flow from the
atmosphere into the lungs during inhalation.

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Gas Exchange across the Alveoli
• The change in partial pressure from the alveoli (high concentration) to the
capillaries (low concentration) drives the oxygen into the tissue and the carbon
dioxide into the blood (high concentration) from the tissues (low concentration),
which is then returned to the lungs and exhaled.
• Once in the blood of the capillaries, the O2 binds to the hemoglobin in red blood
cells which carry it to the tissues where it dissociates to enter the cells of the
tissues.
• The lungs never fully deflate, so air that is inhaled mixes with the residual air left
from the previous respiration, resulting in a lower partial pressure of oxygen within
the alveoli.

Types of Breathing
• Eupnea is normal quiet breathing that requires contraction of the diaphragm and
external intercostal muscles.
• Diaphragmatic breathing requires contraction of the diaphragm and is also called
deep breathing.
• Costal breathing requires contraction of the intercostal muscles and is also called
shallow breathing.
• Hyperpnea is forced breathing and requires muscle contractions during both
inspiration and expiration such as contraction of the diaphragm, intercostal
muscles, and accessory muscles.
• Amphibians utilize gills for breathing early in life and later develop primitive lungs

• Birds have evolved a directional respiratory system that allows them to obtain
oxygen at high altitudes: air flows in one direction while blood flows in another,
allowing efficient gas exchange.

The Respiratory System > Breathing
The Mechanics of Human Breathing
• The mechanics of breathing follow Boyle's Law which states that pressure and
volume have an inverse relationship.
• The process of inhalation occurs due to an increase in the lung volume
(diaphragm contraction and chest wall expansion) which results in a decrease in
lung pressure in comparison to the atmosphere; thus, air rushes in the airway.
• The process of exhalation occurs due to an elastic recoil of the lung tissue which
causes a decrease in volume, resulting in increased pressure in comparison to
the atmosphere; thus, air rushes out of the airway.
• There is no contraction of muscles during exhalation; it is considered a passive

process.
• The lung is protected by layers of tissue referred to as the visceral pleura and
parietal pleura; the intrapleural space contains a small amount of fluid that
protects the tissue by reducing friction.

The Respiratory System > Breathing
The Work of Breathing
• Both flow-resistive and elastic work are conducted during the act of respiration;
flow-resistive work involves the alveoli and tissues, while elastic work involves the
intercostal muscles, chest wall, and diaphragm.
• These types of work function in an inverse relationship; for example, increasing
the rate of respiration results in an increase in the flow-resistive work and a
decrease in the elastic work.
• Surfactant is a phospholipid and lipoprotein substance produced in the lungs that
functions similarly to a detergent: it reduces the surface tension between alveoli
tissue and air within the alveoli, thereby reducing the work needed for airway
inflation.
FEV1/FVC ratio
View on Boundless.com
• Lung resistance plays a key role in the ability to efficiently exchange gases; if
there is obstruction (resistance) within the airways, the result will be decreased
gas exchange.
• Lung compliance plays a key role in the ability to efficiently exchange gases; if
there is too much of an increase or decrease in elasticity of the lung, the result will
be disruption of gas exchange, which will cause obstructive or restrictive
diseases.

The Respiratory System > Breathing
Dead Space: V/Q Mismatch
• At times, there is a mismatch between the amount of air (ventilation, V) and the
amount of blood (perfusion, Q) in the lungs, referred to as ventilation/perfusion
(V/Q) mismatch.
• The two major types of V/Q mismatch that result in dead space include:
anatomical dead space (caused by an anatomical issue) and physiological dead
space (caused by a functional issue with the lung or arteries).
• Anatomical dead space can occur due to changes in gravity (i.e. posture
positions: sitting, standing, lying); it will affect both ventilation (V) and perfusion
(Q).
Pulmonary edema
• Physiological dead space can occur due to changes in function, such as in cases
View on Boundless.com
of infection of the lung; it will typically affect ventilation if the infection is in the lung
and will affect perfusion if the functional impairment is in the arteries.
• In a normal, healthy individual, changes in either ventilation or perfusion will result
in correction of the other factor to ensure an appropriate V/Q ratio.

Transport of Oxygen in the Blood
• Hemoglobin is made up of four subunits and can bind up to four oxygen
molecules.
• Carbon dioxide levels, blood pH, body temperature, environmental factors, and
diseases can all affect oxygen's carrying capacity and delivery.
• A decrease in the oxygen-carrying ability of hemoglobin is observed with an
increase in carbon dioxide and temperature, as well as a decrease in pH within
the body.
• Sickle cell anemia and thalassemia are two hereditary diseases that decrease the
blood's oxygen-carrying capacity.

The Respiratory System > Transport of Gases in Human Bodily Fluids
Transport of Carbon Dioxide in the Blood
• Carbon dioxide is more soluble in blood than is oxygen; about 5 to 7 percent of all
carbon dioxide is dissolved in the plasma.
• Carbon dioxide has the ability to attach to hemoglobin molecules; it will be
removed from the body once they become dissociated from one another.
• In the bicarbonate buffer system, the most common form of carbon dioxide
transportation in the blood, carbon dioxide is finally expelled from the body
through the lungs during exhalation.
• Importantly, the bicarbonate buffer system allows little change to the pH of the
body system; it allows for people to travel and live at high altitudes because the

Carbon monoxide poisoning
When carbon monoxide (CO) in the body increases, the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin decreases since hemoglobin will bind more readily to CO than
to oxygen.Therefore, CO exposure leads to death due to a decreased transportation of oxygen in the body.
