INTRODUCTIONThe respiratory and cardiac system plays a very vital role in the well-being of human.Both the systems perform the crucial task of respiration and circulation in the body. This file willinclude the details of the respiration and its components (Smolensky and et.al., 2015). Alongwith it, we will also discuss the circulatory or the cardiac system of the body and the details of itsconstituent parts and it functioning in the body. Besides this, the process of the gaseous exchangeand the cardiac cycle has been taken into consideration with the cardiac output of the body.1.1 Structure of Respiratory system and its relation with ventilation.The respiratory system plays a very crucial role of carrying out the respiration process inthe human body. The structure of the respiratory system is as follows:The Respiratory system will involve the following components:Nostril and nasal cavity: This is the opening in the nose, through which the air or theoxygen is inhaled and the carbon dioxide is exhaled. It consists of the mucosal membranethat traps the microbes and other particle from entering into the respiratory tract. Themouth also participates into it but can't provide the similar safety as that of the nose,against the pathogens (Sherwood, 2015).Larynx and Pharynx: Also known as the 'Voice box', it forms the vocal cords andperforms the process of producing sound.1Illustration 1: Human Respiratory system(Source: Respiratory System Definition, 2017)
