AQA GCSE PE: The Pathway Of Air & Gaseous Exchange | The Lungs & Alveoli | The Respiratory System | AQA Paper 1
This video seeks to outline the structural parts of the respiratory system and the pathway air takes following inhalation. It also details how gaseous exchange occurs, as well as the features that support it. It is essential that YOU understand this topic in preparation for the AQA GCSE PE (9-1) paper 1 examination.
What you need to know:
The pathway of air Identification of the pathway of air (limited to):
• mouth/nose
• trachea
• bronchi
• bronchioles
• alveoli
You also have to know that gaseous exchange occurs at the alveoli and understand the features that assist in gaseous exchange:
• large surface area of alveoli
• moist thin walls (one cell thick)
• short distance for diffusion (short diffusion pathway)
• lots of capillaries
• large blood supply
• movement of gas from high concentration to low concentration
• oxygen combines with haemoglobin in the red blood cells to form oxyhaemoglobin. Haemoglobin can also carry carbon dioxide.
I have attached the AQA specification below where you can read about this.
Key terms: the respiratory system, breathing, gaseous exchange, the pathway of air, oxygen, carbon dioxide, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli.
