Respiratory System Mind Map

The document discusses the respiratory system's regulation, including the roles of chemoreceptors, ventilation, and gas exchange. It highlights the importance of maintaining pH balance and thermoregulation through various physiological processes like breathing and the bicarbonate buffer system. Additionally, it covers lung capacities and the mechanics of inhalation and exhalation, emphasizing pressure differentials and muscle involvement.
