Respiratory System

Join the Amoeba Sisters for a brief tour through the human respiratory system! This video will discuss why the respiratory system is so important and address major structures such as the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, alveoli, and lungs. Video also mentions a bit about surfactant and the impact blood pH can have on breathing. Video has been dubbed using an artificial voice via aloud.area120.google.com to increase accessibility.

When I subbed 2 months ago, I saw mostly shorts, it's amazing to see there are still videos coming!

[@AmoebaSisters]

So glad you like this! We're still making longer full content vids. Our next full topic video will be on the excretory system and nephron! (Hopefully to be out at the end of next month). 😊 We just have been simultaneously adding to our Shorts playlist with some smaller topics that lend themselves to a short format.

[@saralouise5870]

I'm a student at Nova Scotia Community College, and our profs use your videos as online lessons!! Since we don't get in-person classes for eCourses, you've very literally helped me get through the semester.

[@spectre_4206]

You guys are downright amazing at what you do to teach us, and I understand how much hard work it takes for you guys to make these elaborate videos. Thank you.
