I'm doing a project in my Biology class and I need to find out the different kinds of diseases that can harm a respiratory system. What would also be nice would be a list of diseases that only effect certain part of the respiraty system. If anyone knows of any, please inform me. I thank you all in advance!

There are three primary respiratory diseases: Bronchitis, Asthma and restrictive lung disease. The respiratory system is so closely associated related to the heart and they both have to work together.

Respiratory process first (Inhaling the smoke), then circulatory (less oxygen within the blood) and then everything else goes to hell. It is a horrible dependancy and very difficult to break. Take my phrase for it, do not . If you have, try to give up as quickly as possible and under no circumstances go back.

Cystic Fibrosis--lungs make too much mucous clogging the airways--upper lobes affected at a greater extent than the lower ones.
