Pathway of Air Flow
Our journey of oxygen into the lungs and back begins when the brain stem sends a message to the diaphragm which is a muscle under the lungs.
As the diaphragm moves down the lungs expand.

Air enters the nose and mouth and enters the nasal passages.
Your nose and nasal passages have tiny hairs called cilia and mucus that help filter dirt and pollen out of the air.
The air next moves to the pharynx which is located at (the back of the mouth)
From the pharynx, it moves to the larynx which is commonly called the voice box.
the voice box (makes sounds when air
passes over the vocal cords)
Epiglottis: the flap of connective tissue that covers
over the larynx during breathing
It stands open during breathing, allowing air into the larynx. During swallowing, it closes to prevent choking on food

From the larynx, air travels to the Trachea which is a rigid tube made of cartilage.
The trachea leads into two tubes called the left and right bronchus
These tubes continue to branch until you reach a tiny air sac called a alveoli
At the alveoli, oxygen diffuses into the capillaries and carbon dioxide diffuse into the alveoli and is exhaled.
This process is repeated over and over again.

Learn the difference between an endothermic reaction and an exothermic reaction.
Endothermic reactions take in energy and might be cold to the touch. Exothermic reactions give off energy and will sometimes be warm or hot to the touch.

At @MooMooMath and Science, we end our videos with kindness multiplies kindness. In each of my #shorts I like to tell a quick Kindness story in order to inspire myself and others to practice kindness.
Acts of kindness make a lasting positive impact on the people around you.

You can find all of my kindness stories in this playlist.

In this video, I answer the question, " what makes an amphibian an amphibian?" Learn about the main characteristics of amphibians. Examples of amphibians include frogs,salamanders,newts,toads, and cecillians. All amphibians are vertebrates that can go through some type of metamorphasis.

The cytoplasm is the fluid found in cells.
Cytoplasm is found in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
The fluid of cytoplasm is called cytosol. It is made up mainly of water
The organelles are found floating in this liquid along with many other items
You can almost think of the cytoplasm as a crowded swimming pool

How is this city like a cell?
They both need to store water and other materials.
Welcome to MooMooMath and Science and organelles and in this video, I will cover the main functions of a vacuole.
Vacuoles store water and waste and other materials in eukaryotic cells. Remember these are cells with membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus.

Vacuoles are storage sacks in plants and animal cells protists but they are not found in
bacterial cells in addition to storing water, vacuoles also store enzymes, waste, and even old damaged organelles.

In this video learn the difference between evaporation and condensation.

Learn the diference between saturated,unsaturated, and supersaturated solutions.
Science Standard
When you have an unsaturated solution less solute then the solution is capable of dissolving is mixed in.
With a saturated solution there is so much solute present that if you were to add any more it will not dissolve and excess salt will fall to the bottom of the container.
If you mix in 40 grams of salt at 90 degrees into 100 grams of water.

A supersaturated solution contains more than the maximum amount of dissolved solute then the solvent is able to dissolve at a given temperature.

S8P1.a Develop and use a model to compare and contrast pure substances (elements and compounds) and mixtures.

After passing through the small intestine food travels into the large intestine.
Your large intestine is roughly 9 feet in length but gets it’s name because it has a larger diameter than the small intestine.
Your large intestine is also called the colon.
The large intestine is divided into several sections.

Difference between Organic and Inorganic Compounds
Organic compounds contain carbon. There are at least four important organic compounds, lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids.
Inorganic compounds do not contain carbon and usually are more simple compounds.
There are some compounds that contain carbon and are inorganic like carbon dioxide.

Take a look at the cuttlefish and it's amazing ability to change it's color based on the background.

Cells must move all types of objects into and out of a cell. Large molecules like proteins, ions and polar molecules like water can be difficult.
Facilitated diffusion helps move these molecules into the cell.
