The Physics Behind Our Breath (Ventilation, Perfusion, and Partial Pressure) | Corporis

We're able to breathe thanks to some very specific laws of physics plus some important muscles. In this video, I'll walk you through a single breath, gas exchange, ventilation, perfusion, and partial pressure. ☠️NONE OF THE INFORMATION IN THIS VIDEO SHOULD BE USED AS MEDICAL ADVICE OR OPINION.

I’m a freelance science writer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Athletic Training and a master’s in clinical exercise physiology. I used to work in the clinical setting as a certified athletic trainer, physical therapy aide, and a certified strength and conditioning specialist. After working in the clinical setting, I went back to school and became a teacher. The goal of my content is to help normal people, not just pre-med students, learn about the human body. That might mean explaining a topic from an anatomy class or exploring a topic from medical history. 💻 C O N T A C T 💻 If you’d like to sponsor a video or have other business inquiries: patkellyteaches [at] gmail.com #corporis #anatomy
