So far, we’ve discussed blood a lot in this series, but take a deep breath in and exhale because in this episode we are exploring the respiratory system.
Breathing is one of the few things we do continuously, every day, without thinking about it.
Our bodies, like other vertebrates, depend on oxygen to run our normal aerobic metabolisms. And though some of our bodily processes happen without oxygen, we still need to burn some oxygen in order to really take advantage of the food we eat. Meaning at some point, we need to start pulling oxygen from the air and depositing it into our red blood cells.
And this biological process really depends on nothing other than good old physics. Those ideal gas laws you might have learned in high school? Dalton’s law? We see a beautiful example of them in the simple act of taking a breath.
Find out more about all the hardware involved in breathing; why oxygen is so important; and how we pluck it from the air around us in this Human.

How the Lungs Work
www.nhlbi.nih....
“Your lungs are a pair of pyramid-shaped organs inside your chest that allow your body to take in oxygen from the air. They have a spongy texture and are pinkish-gray in color. The lungs bring oxygen into the body when breathing in and send carbon dioxide out of the body when breathing out. Carbon dioxide is a waste gas produced by the cells of the body.”
Respiratory System: Our Avenue for Gas Exchange
www.livescienc...
“The human respiratory system is a series of organs responsible for taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. The primary organs of the respiratory system are the lungs, which carry out this exchange of gases as we breathe.”
Anatomy of the Respiratory System
www.urmc.roche...
“The lungs take in oxygen. The cells of your body's cells need oxygen to live and carry out their normal functions. The lungs also get rid of carbon dioxide, a waste product of the cells.”

Its a WOW series you're making .... Best of the Bests !!! Thanks a Lot for the wonderful playlist !!! We need more .... Please !!!
Looking forward to the next episode. Apparently several years ago certain government labs found a way to aerosolize hormones. you can literally spray people wit them.
If your lungs are full of ravioli, you're in serious trouble.
Ravioli ravioli what's in the lungioli
ravioli ravioli
there goes my aevioli
:O
Thus ravioli isn't healthy
@@KenTheAdventurer I don't know about that... they just belong in the stomach and not the lungs.... probably.
We love this new guy!!!!!! U dare not replace him Seeker !!! U dare not!!!! God bless ur team for such info
THE FALLACY HUNTER yeah. Slightly reminds me of Trace
Aww, I miss Trace. This guy is great, though, and easy on the eyes *le swoon*
Eddie Contreras what is le swoon
Oh fantastic, now I'm thinking about breathing. And getting light headed from taking deep breaths
This video was breathtaking!
youre breath taking
Dang! I needed this for my bio exam today. The exact same things in my textbook but explained in a much more fun way. I can totally relate and connect to this. Thank you Seeker!
Thank you, seeker, for explaining one of the complex topics of lungs and physics.
I really like the explanation by this person it's clear and understandable.
The things you make are so great! I want to show these in class for students to learn better! :D
Dark Energy what if dose same students already watch this
@@trrrmac real possibility.
Awesome. Eagerly waiting for the next one!!
I suffer anxiety a lot which often brings with it awareness of one's breathing and as soon as you are aware of it you have to start doing it consciously.
I understand I have this 🥺how are u now?
breathing is not scary. it is much safer than you think so your lungs aint gonna explode or sth.
For 9 minutes and 18 seconds I couldn't stop thinking about how to breath
mindfulness meditation
Fun fact: You can't breathe through your nose while smiling.
Of course you can, I just wanted to make you smile. 😃
That's a good pick-up line 👌😂😂
I think you breathe with your mouth while smiling.
thank you
You dare
Haha hell yeah 😅 I was like WTH! That was a good one.
i love this chanel .. damn
thank you. i'm a teacher and this realy helps me becouse i need to teach how our body breathes so thanks alot!
I love your series. One thing I want to mention on this episode. I know you are limited on time, but you did not mention the importance of the intercostal muscles working with the diaphragm. My daughter was born without skeletal muscle, so she had no intercostal. She used her stomach to assist the diaphragm, making her a “belly breather.” Because she would tire very easily, she was on a ventilator at night to help her rest.
It's amazing observing you talking while breathing.
Silly question but at the last part about partial pressure. I don't quite understand, won't our body rid of the carbon dioxide entirely, so that means our body constantly have carbon dioxide left even after breathing it out? I thought carbon dioxide is toxic though. Sorry if this is stupid
7:58 Please let this be a normal field trip.
this is informative
Awesome explanation
thats why in yoga kumbhak breath retention is focused after various other pranayama with retention oxygen stays much longer
My lungs became more important to me after I got pneumothorax three weeks ago.
Oh no!! Hope ur feeling better mate!
Especially when you were hooked to bottles filled with water.
How can o2 just have a Carbon atom attached to it and turned to co2 when "consumed"? If the cell just could ge rid of the extra carbon and resuse the O2, that would be more efficient, or is the o2 needed to get rid of the waste carbon atom?
Maybe its also needed for other processes like the buffer system and thermoregulation. Also the body maybe cant process the splitting of carbon from the o2 or requires a lot of energy. Too much carbon could increase carbonic acid which would result into acidosis.
What happens to the nitrogen?
It's there, but your cells don't use it for anything, so there's no net flow of nitrogen in or out of the body. It's possible to have too much nitrogen diffused in the blood though, like if you go scuba diving for a long time, or if you're an astronaut preparing for a space walk.
I love science... but this kinda gave me an anxiety attack. I *think* I don't want to think too much about Symp. & Parasymp. Autonomic Functions... thanks for the knowledge however - just gotta try to forget it now❤
Are you okay lmao
@@sebastianelytron8450 aww you're so sweet! I'm feeling better. I have a progressive heart disease & if I think about bodily systems - particularly aerobic?
I panic. I didn't know this stuff & I started thinking about my diaphragm saying, "Eff this"... I'll be ok though💕🤪😁😍👍
knowledge is never too much. I have Asthma though.
@@niki123489 I'm so sorry about that 😥
Best explanation bro
Great educational video
This video is simply breath taking 🥺
Thanks alot!
Him: breathing is one of the things we least think about
me coming to this video because I was thinking about myself breathing 😂
I tried cutting out my addiction to oxygen and stopped breathing this chemical. But that's when my memory gets a bit foggy, and I passed out. When I woke up, I was back on the stuff. 😖
Hi what happens in your body when you are inhaling and exhaling only through your nose vs. when you inhale with nose and exhale with mouth?
That was an interesting watch! I hope you will do a video about iron soon. Tell us exactly what happens when you have too little and when you have too much.
Hi Seeker, can you explain the correct way to breath and the science behind during a workout.
Thanks in advance. Would really appreciate!
He is such a pleasure to listen to... and to look at ☺️
I was conscious about my breathing patterns the whole video. Made me really uncomfortable.
You're even thinking about it now, 5 hours after posting your comment and reading mine
Thanks, for the whole video I was manually breathing
I lol'd so hard when he said that first line.
he knew i knew it.
I really like this series. It is very well done.
Awesome animation 🌴 & explaination 👌 TKS 🙏
An episode on what happens to our body when we go scuba diving please? How come our internal organs still function underwater with all that difference in external pressure? Thanks!
can elecronic assist help human breath underwater without need of accesorry and if that possible the future stomach is not meeded because the nutricient can goes directly to blood
The human body is amazing. Bill Bryson’s book on the body gave me a lot more appreciation for it. Don’t take it for granted!
Corona after entering human body: let's hijack the whole respiratory system.
Octopodes, squid and the other cephalopods have a 3-heart circulatory system to increase the pressure of blood before it arrives to their branchiae, which serve as their pulmonary equivalent. Since liquids are basically uncompressable, does this change the way their gaseous exchange work? What about simpler creatures like oysters? I'd really, really like to know how respiration works for aquatic animals
Question 🙋🏻♂️ our tissues absorb O2 from the blood which is transferred from the alveoli after absorbing it how does CO2 is emitted as a byproduct and where does this carbon come from ?
Conversion of glucose absorbed from food into ATP, I guess. Read on the Kreb's cycle. You'll understand things more.
Biology: Interesting
Chemistry: OK
Physics: The Bully
@seker make a video on evolution of eye... From photoreceptor in bacteria to most complex eye
Not sure if meditating gonna become easier or harder after this knowledge.
Next Episode: How Corona Virus COVID 19 disrupts lung function
Need to explain more about the working of the membrane in between alveoli and capillaries. How does only oxygen and co2 pass through the membrane?How does it keep out Nitrogen and other gases in the air?
partial pressure
niki123489 Thanks. Got it.
This whoooole video got me focused on my breathing
WHAT A CHAD
Could someone explain why it matters what the partial pressure is? I mean why does the partial pressure matter and not the 'total' pressure?
Omg I love my body sooo much!! It's amazing!!!
Does breathing stops if you remove the brain ? Make another video regarding this.
I don't breathe. I recycle my farts.
im wayy too high for this dont remind me to breathe all the time
Felt that bro
Thank you very much. good
I'm constantly thinking about breeding
great video!
Good video
All I know about my breath is that it smells like coffee
Maybe it's because I drink too much coffee...I dunno man...
You smell your own breath?
Oh
dont lie to me.
you breathed manually during this whole video.
sooo true
so *breathing* true
Basically every little thing in your life is way more complicated than anyone of us will ever understand
"breathing has nothing to do with sucking air in our squeezing air out", that's exactly what you described and physics ALWAYS have to do with anatomy and biology and computing and videos and your clothes. Sucking is making a low pressure cavity and squeeze is literally increase the pressure of something.
To expand a bit, hemoglobin changes affinity between CO2 and O2 based on the amount of O2 attached and the temperature. So hot muscles will lower the affinity for O2; dumping O2 where it is needed, and then pick up waste CO2 and makes its way back to the lungs where the increased O2 gradient causes the CO2 to switch places with O2.
Hi if you breath O2 then why do you exhale CO2 = carbon + the O2 the just inhale then your body did not use ANY O2 to begin with.
@@alisjemarx9871 You're body makes energy by breaking down hydrocarbons and produces energy as a byproduct. For instance, cells break down sugar like this:
C6H12O6(Sugar)+6O2 -> 6CO2+6H2O+Energy
The oxygen isn't created or destroyed, it just changes form and a byproduct of the chemical reaction that changes O2 into CO2 makes excess energy in the form of free electrons that are captured by the body and turned into a molecule of ATP which your cells can than use directly to power various functions like ion pumps.
Thanx that make more since
Before breating in and out wear a mask!
I love how this video came out the night before my medical school exam on the respiratory system, great simplified overview with some awesome visualizations you just don't get in class. Thank you Seeker!
hidden? we learned this in biology class
I had to switch my breathing from automatic to manual while watching this video.
Can you please do a video on diseases caused by viruses.
Given the recent out break of corona virus, Ebola and so on.
Hi there! Stay tuned, we have some videos on both coronavirus and Ebola in the works, but until then, check out our SICK episode on measles here: th-cam.com/video/69GHdz9iRKU/w-d-xo.html and for even more videos on diseases and how they work inside our bodies check out our SICK playlist: bit.ly/SICKplaylist. Thanks for watching!
Why does the act of breathing i.e. respiration share the same name with the biochemistry of energy generation i.e. respiration?
I have corona and right now i can't breathe
*thanks for reminding me to breathe*
why does oxygen enter the bloodstream but not nitrogen? assuming the partial pressure of nitrogen inside the blood is probably a lot lower than in the lungs.
Dang it ! Beautiful explanation 💪
Gas pressure is number of collisions not velocity of gas molecules
* When a TH-cam channel tells you the difference between knowledge and education * me: intelligent . You are the best @Seeker
So there is another world of complex mechanisms that help function our body. It is so weird that we don't know anything about those inside mechanisms.
This channel is dope.
lowkey sad that you didnt cover the blood oxygen dissociation curve or bohr effect. it's another complicated process of physics, yes, but it addresses the question of how haemoglobin binds to oxygen and how oxygen is released from it into the cells.
Thank you seeker now I have to breathe manually
Btw I have a high RBC count than normal. Does that mean I have better oxygen management? Meaning if my blood can get more oxygen to the cells naturally so that effects my breathing as well? Any doctors here who can shed some light on this?
could shortness of breath be a side effect of high blood pressure?
I got a rotten tooth, don't need a rocket scientist for that.
Boyle’s law!
Those graphics have me sitting here imagining inhaling and exhaling everything in McDonald’s PlayPlace.
i accidentally clicked this video now i have enabled manual breathing
Sir, does that mean other gases aside from oxygen are also transported to the tissues?
What. Physics is literally everything
Im thoroughly impressed....
You literally told me NOTHING about breathing...
What about Swara yoga where your nostrils change dominance affecting your brainwaves.
What about oxygen saturation called the tranquil breath where your heart pauses.....
Do you know anything about breathing......
I would prefer to get a bit more in depth about the subject of blood and cell operations internally.
Just remember all these processes in the body are learning about how these processes in the body are working
And what happens with the hydrogen in the air when they get to the alvioli?
Crap now I’m breathing manually agin
Ok this os the first time I think I heard myself being compared to a tree with leaves... interesting enough ^^'.
I don't know about you but in my zombification, I have mastered anaerobic respiration.
Where are all those *NOTCH HATERS*
