Explore how the human body manages energy production and waste removal through the respiratory and excretory systems in augmented reality.
Point your camera at the Trube Medical elephant card to see the 3D model appear on top of it.
The body absorbs energy from food through the digestive system, breaking down nutrients into glucose.
Cells convert glucose into ATP energy, producing CO2 and water as waste products.
The respiratory system exchanges CO2 waste for fresh oxygen in the alveoli.
Excess energy is released as heat through terrestrial radiation, maintaining homeostasis.
Kidneys filter metabolic waste, lungs expel CO2, skin releases toxins through sweat.
Lungs facilitate gas exchange. Alveoli provide massive surface area for efficient O2/CO2 diffusion.
The body radiates heat as infrared radiation, essential for temperature regulation.
Kidneys filter waste from blood. Urine carries urea and excess minerals.
Mitochondria convert glucose + O2 into ATP through cellular respiration.
