#38 - How To Breathe: Respiration, Oxygen, Cells & Metabolism – Science But Simple 5 With Josh Murray

Listen on

Episode notes

This week marks the return of our favourite scientist for the newest addition of “Science But Simple”!

Respiration & breathing is yet another scientific topic that Mike knows nothing about, so Josh explains in an easy-to-digest way for him and all of you lovely listeners!

As well as the above, Josh explains how metabolism works in general, speaks about how mammal lungs differ from fish gills, how plants respire and why they don’t “breathe”, how the body uses oxygen & glucose to power itself, along with debunking several misconceptions Mike had about respiring and more, in this informative, but informal, release!

For any newcomers, "Science But Simple" is a mini-series on Genuine Chit-Chat mostly about explaining the fundamentals of things we see in our everyday lives in an easy-to-digest manner.

Last week Mike had Alex on where they discuss the importance of balancing nature within our lives, bat-netting, Alex’s new venture “Feel The Wild” and much more!
