Question 1

Question 1 : Which organ is mainly responsible for breathing?

Réponses possibles :

Le cœur
Les poumons
Le foie
L'estomac

Answer

Les poumons sont les organes principaux de la respiration. Ils permettent les échanges gazeux entre l'air et le sang : absorption d'oxygène et rejet de dioxyde de carbone.

Question 2

Question 2 : What is the main muscle that enables inhalation?

Réponses possibles :

Le diaphragme
Les abdominaux
Les biceps
Le cœur

Answer

Le diaphragme est le muscle principal de la respiration. En se contractant, il s'abaisse et augmente le volume de la cage thoracique, permettant à l'air d'entrer dans les poumons.

Question 3

Question 3 : What gas do we mainly absorb during inhalation?

Réponses possibles :

Question 4

Question 4 : Abdominal breathing is also called... breathing

Réponses possibles :

Costale
Diaphragmatique
Claviculaire
Bronchique

Réponses possibles :

L'apnée
L'hyperventilation
Box breathing

Question 8

Question 8 : What is voluntarily holding your breath called?

Réponses possibles :

L'apnée
L'asphyxie
L'hyperventilation
La dyspnée

Question 10

Question 10 : Through which passage is it recommended to inhale to filter and warm the air?

Réponses possibles :

La bouche
Peu importe
Le nez
Les oreilles

Answer

Le nez filtre, réchauffe et humidifie l'air avant qu'il n'atteigne les poumons. Les poils et le mucus retiennent les particules et les bactéries.

Accepted Answer

L'oxygène (O₂) est le gaz vital que nous absorbons lors de l'inspiration. Il représente environ 21% de l'air que nous respirons et est essentiel au fonctionnement de nos cellules.
