For November 16th

Here is another video created by Hank Green that does an excellent job of explaining the circulatory and respiratory system.

Here are a few things to think about:

  • How do the respiratory and circulatory system work together? 
  • Why do we breathe? 
  • What do we need oxygen for?
  • What is the difference between a vein and an artery?
  • How does the diaphragm help us breath?

  5. I didnt know it took so much effort for the oxygen and co2 to get in and out of the body. It seems so effortless but its actually a lot of work

  6. i learned tht witout oxygen we die.Our respriatory system brings in oxygen and our circulatory system circulates the body bringing oxygen to all our blood cells and muscles and ect.a vein brings in the blood and the artery brings the blood out

  7. I never thought just to breath it took all that effort in the Resperitory System and on the outside world i dont feel a think. I cant beilieve all the work like when u breath in and the air passes down the esophagos past the larynk and the trachea and to beilieve all the air goes into little branches called the bronchilos and into the lung. Its unbielievable what our body can do

    Hello fellow citizens of PRMS. I found he did not go over about all the bad things that can happen to your lungs by smoking.

  10. I dont think that this video is that good because he didnt talk much about things that do bad things to your lungs and blood, AND WHY IS HE ON AGAIN.

  11. Who wouldve thought blood helped out around your body that much. I can't believe how much work it is to breath. its something we do everyday and it never seems that difficult. but now learning more about it i see how complex our respretory and circulitory systems are.
