The respiratory system does not:
1. allow oxygen from the air to enter the blood and carbon dioxide to leave the blood and enter the air.
2. alter the pH by changing oxygen levels.
3. provide protection against some microorganisms by preventing their entry into the body and by removing them from respiratory surfaces.
4. allow for speech and sound generation.

Why is oxygen transport affected in carbon monoxide poisoning?
1. More carbonic acid will be produced, and the hemoglobin will give up more oxygen to the tissue.
2. Hemoglobin will bind to less oxygen, and hemoglobin will not release as much oxygen to the tissue.
3. Carbon monoxide makes hemoglobin give up oxygen more readily in the tissues.
4. Carbon monoxide ties up hemoglobin's ability to bind to oxygen, but more hemoglobin will be produced, so no decline in oxygen in the tissue will be noticed.
