Respiratory System

The organs that transfer oxygen from the air to the body, like the nose, trachea and lungs

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to fill a water balloon using a narrow funnel and hose. Just like filling the balloon, our respiratory system works to transfer something essential—in this case, oxygen—from the air into our bodies. The nose acts like the funnel, guiding air in, the trachea serves as the hose, directing the flow smoothly, and the lungs are like the balloon, expanding to hold the vital oxygen our body needs.
