    The diaphragm relaxes, thelungs contract and push air out.
  • Here food is broken down by our teeth and mixed with saliva.
    Mouth
  • Describe the route of air during inhalation.
    1º Nasal cavity 2º Trachea 3º Bronchi 4º Lungs 5º Bronchiole 6º Alveoli
  • The trachea belongs to ...
    Respiratory system
    Digestive system
  • Here the minerals are absorbed and faeces are formed.

    HEART
  • They carry blood from the organs to the heart.
    Veins
  • Here the "bolus" is mixed with digestive juices and broken down some more.
    Stomach
  • They are thin and connect the arteries and veins.
    CAPILLARIES
  • Where does the exchange of gases take place?
    Windpipe
    Alveoli
    Bronchiole
    Bronchi
  • These two organs produce digestive juices.
    Pancreas and liver.
  • Describe the process by wich urine is formed.
    The kidneys filter the blood and trap the waste. Then, they mix the waste with water and form urine.
  • These are tiny air sacs surrounded by capillaries.
    Alveoli
  • Describe the route of food in our body.
