RESPIRATORY ORGANS
The respiratory organs are the nose, pharynx, trachea and lungs. These organs are located in front of the thorax. Generally, this system functions to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen in the blood. Oxygen is very important to maintain the activities of all living cells. The nose is situated in front of the skull. Generally, it functions as a filter, moisturizer and heater for the air that passes through it. The pharynx is shaped like a tunnel and is situated behind the nose and mouth cavity. It functions as a passage for air and food, a house for the tonsil and an area that produces voice. The trachea is an air tube in front of the neck. It acts as a tube carrying air from the outside to the lungs for gas transformation/conversion process.

RESPIRATORY ORGAN

The lungs are divided into two, the left and the right lungs. Its main function is to convert carbon dioxide to oxygen and to help stabilize/maintain the PH of the blood.

STRUCTURES INVOLVES
The respiratory organs are divided into several parts. Each part represents its own electromagnetic structure. (Refer Fig 5.1 and 5.2). This structure consists of:a) Line P6 RA: Situated on the side of the chest. The left line represents the heart or circulatory organ. b) Line P6 RP: Situated on the rear part of the chest. This line represents the rear part of the lungs. c) Line P6 SL: Situated on the sides of the chest. It represents the sides of the lungs. d) Line P8 SA: Situated in the centre of the nose and represents the sinus activities and nose cavity. e) Line P6 SA: Located in the centre of the chest to control the throat and the bronchus. f) Line P6 SM-A: Situated next to the line P6 SA. It represents the thymus and bronchial gland. This gland is crucial in secreting natural antibiotic.
