1. Organelle: Cell parts that function within a cell. (They coordinate with other organelles to perform a cell's basic
function.) Similar to organ in an organism.
2. Ribosomes: Carry out protein synthesis.
3. Golgi Apparatus: Modifies and packages proteins secreted from a cell.
4. Mitochondria: Converts energy present in chemical bonds of food and makes it accessible to the cell.
5. Nucleus: Stores and processes information from DNA that tell cell functions what they are and what they do.
6. Cytoskeleton: Movement
7. Alveoli: Tiny air sacs in lungs where the exchange of Oxygen and CO2 takes place.

8. Asthma: Lung disease characterized by inflamed, narrow airways and difficulty breathing.
9. Bronchi: The main passageways directly attached to the lungs.
10. Bronchioles: Small passageways in the lungs that connect bronchi to alveoli.
11. Cystic Fibrosis: Genetic disorder that affects the lungs and other organs. Characterized by difficulty breathing
coughing up sputum, and lung infections.
12. Perfusion: The passage of fluid to an organ or tissue.
13. Pleura: A membrane around the lungs and inside the chest cavity.
14. Surfactant: A fluid secreted by alveoli and found in the lungs.
15. Tidal Volume: The amount of air breathed in a normal inhalation/exhalation.
16. Trachea: The windpipe which connects the larynx to the lungs.

17. Ventilation: The movement of air in and out of the body via inhalation and exhalation.
18. Arteries: Blood vessels that deliver blood away from the heart- leading to the rest of the body.
19. Capillary: Small blood vessels that connect arterioles to venules.
20. Diastole: Part of cardiac cycle where heart rests and refills with blood.
21. Systole: Part of the cardiac cycle where heart contracts and expels blood.
22. Hemoglobin: The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.
23. Leukocyte: White blood cells which protect the body against diseases.
