NASAL
CAVITY
TRACHEA or
WINDPIPE
BRONCHI
BRONCHIOLES
ALVEOLI or
AIRSACS
NASAL PASSAGE
where air is moistened, humified,
cleansed and made warm
TRACHEA
the trachea is also known as windpipe
is seperated into two tubes
serves as the tube (or passage way) for
air to pass through
BRONCHI
allows the passage
of air to the lungs
BRONCHIOLES
are the hair-like branches of the
bronchi, where air goes through
allows the passage of air freely into
the lungs
ALVEOLI (or airsacs)
where the exchange of
oxygen and carbon
dioxide gases occurs
1. What does each part of the "bunch of grapes"
model represent, in relation to the breathing
system?

Each part of the bunch of grapes model represents the parts
of the respiratory system. Each part has its own specific
functions like the trachea as the main stem or the main
passage of air towards the lungs, followed by the bronchi or
the secondary stem, bronchioles; the smaller stems and the
alveoli (the individual grapes).

Our group decided to describe the pathway like a cycle.
The process continues and is never-ending. The air as one
of the important component of breathing will enter into the
nose, into the nasal until the trachea, then to bronchi as
tube connecting to the lungs. Bronchioles will distribute
the air (oxygen) into the alveoli which allows the exchange
of gases (oxygen transformed into carbon dioxide).
The word system in breathing is composed of different
important parts and they have their specific functions and if
one part of the respiratory system fails to perform its function;
then it would affect the entire system, even the whole body.
There would be a problem in breathing and circulating the
oxygen throughout the body. Each part of this system. The
respiratory system wont work inside ones body anymore
even if only one part failed to carry out its function.
