In biology, the continuous interhange between the gases of living organisms and the ases of the medium in which they live, continuous i a rough out life. This consists in all active cells in plants; f a constant absorption of the oxygen of the air into le ti ues, where it causes oxidation of the a imilated; ubstances and the release of carbon dioxid. The lovements of protoplasm are dependent upon respiltion. It is the opposite of a imilation. R., Abiominal, respiration caused by the contraction of the iiaphragm and the elasticity of the abdominal walls tod viscera. It is more common in men than in vomen. R., Aerial, respiration in which the respiatory membrane receives oxygen and is relieved of arb on dioxid by means of atmospheric air. R., Amphoric, a blowing respiration engendered in large avitfes with firm walls. Its peculiar character is lue to an echo from the walls of the cavity. R., Aquatic, respiration in which the respiratory memrane.the branchial mucosa(gills),the skin, etc., receive and are relieved of carbon dioxid by means of ater. R., Artificial, artificial production of the rmal respirator' movements. See Artificial R., Biot's, periodic respirations without iy variation in the extent of the individual respira•ns. It occurs normally during sleep. R., Blood, e giving off of carbon dioxid and taking up of ygen by the blood during its pa age through the ngs. The blood while pa ing through the capilries gives up its oxygen to the ti ues and takes up rbon dioxid. R.. Blowing. See R., Bronchial. '.., Branchial, respiration by means of gills or bran in aquatic animals. R., Bronchial, respira' as heard over the trachea or bronchial tubes in alth; it is high in pitch, equal in inspiration and f piration, blowing in character, especially the exelement, and is marked by a brief pause tween inspiration and expiration. It is well:ined only in case of pulmonary consolidation.., Broncho-cavernous, a form intermediate in charter between bronchial and cavernous respiration. R., "oncho-vesicular, respiration having the characters both bronchial and vesicular respiration. It is ard over areas of consolidation surrounded by i tches of healthy lung-ti ue. R., Buccal.
