The Respiratory system
The Respiratory System goes to work every time you breath. Take a breath in, and you inhale oxygen. Breathe out and your exhaling carbon dioxide.
tHE LUNGS
Every person has 2 lungs, one on the right and one on the left. They are split into
different sections called lobes; your left has 2 lobes while your right has 3. Your lungs are what bring oxygen into your body and release carbon dioxide (a waste product that cells produce).
Your lungs help your body get the oxygen it needs and gets rid of the carbon dioxide that your body produces.

Fun facts!
Did you know?
The right lung is sligthly larger than the left.
The surface area of the lungs is roughly the same size as a tennis court.
A person at rest breathes about 12-15 times a minute. That is atleast 17,000 times a day and over 6 million breathes a year.
