Let's solve the worksheet step by step.

1. Label the parts of the respiratory system
We are given a diagram with numbered labels (1 to 8). Let’s identify each part based on its position in the human respiratory system:
-
1:
Nose – This is the external opening where air enters.
-
2:
Nasal cavity – The space inside the nose where air is filtered, warmed, and moistened.
-
3:
Larynx – Also known as the voice box, located below the throat.
-
4:
Trachea – The windpipe that connects the larynx to the bronchi.
-
5:
Right lung – One of the two main organs for gas exchange.
-
6:
Bronchi – The large tubes branching from the trachea into the lungs.
-
7:
Bronchioles – Smaller branches of the bronchi within the lungs.
-
8:
Diaphragm – The muscle beneath the lungs that helps in breathing.
So, fill in the blanks as follows:
1.
Nose
2.
Nasal cavity
3.
Larynx
4.
Trachea
5.
Right lung
6.
Bronchi
7.
Bronchioles
8.
Diaphragm
> Note: Some diagrams may label "6" as
left bronchus or just
bronchi, and "7" as
alveoli if it points to tiny sacs. But here, since it shows branching tubes,
bronchioles is correct. If it were the alveoli, it would be shown as tiny clusters. Based on standard labeling,
bronchioles fits best.

2. Complete the text about the process of respiration
Use the words provided:
- Breathe out
- Breathe in
- Blood
- Trachea
- Air
- Nose
- Bronchi
- Carbon dioxide
- Lungs
- Oxygen
- Nostrils
Now, let's complete the paragraph logically:
> First, air enters through our
nostrils and
nose.
> The air goes down through the
trachea and the
bronchi.
> The
air enters in the
lungs.
>
Oxygen (O₂) passes into the
blood.
>
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) leaves our body when we
breathe out.

✔ Final Answer:
####
Part 1: Labeling
1. Nose
2. Nasal cavity
3. Larynx
4. Trachea
5. Right lung
6. Bronchi
7. Bronchioles
8. Diaphragm
####
Part 2: Fill in the blanks
First, air enters through our
nostrils and
nose.
The air goes down through the
trachea and the
bronchi.
The
air enters in the
lungs.
Oxygen (O₂) passes into the
blood.
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) leaves our body when we
breathe out.

🔍 Explanation:
-
Respiratory System Pathway: Air enters via nostrils → nasal cavity → pharynx → larynx → trachea → bronchi → bronchioles → alveoli (in lungs).
- In the
alveoli,
oxygen diffuses into the
blood, and
carbon dioxide (waste gas) moves from blood into alveoli to be exhaled.
- The
diaphragm contracts during inhalation and relaxes during exhalation, helping move air in and out.
This completes both tasks accurately!
