Respiratory System

This is a small unit but the concepts you study here will directly correlate with a lot of other sections. Some concepts are really mind-boggling so be careful.

1. Mechanics of Pulmonary system

For the basic mechanism of breathing, I am sharing with you three videos, all by Ninja Nerd Science. You can also watch from Dr. Najeeb if you have a subscription.
