the larynx, pharynx, trachea, bronchus, bronchiole, alveoli.
1.2.3 The physiology of the respiratory system as a mechanical
process of ventilation (inspiration and expiration). The cause
and effect process, including the role of pressure gradients,
partial pressure (pp) and diffusion.

reserve volume, expiratory reserve volume, residual volume,
vital capacity, inspiratory capacity, functional residual capacity,
total lung capacity.
