The respiratory system functions are
as follows:
makes possible gas exchange (oxygen, carbon dioxide)
warms, moistens and filters air entering the respiratory system
Maintains a constant pH
protects against foreign objects
Maintains an adequate gradient between the partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli air, and the pressure of these gases in the blood flowing into the alveoli
