respiration
Let an agent route agonal or absent breathing to emergency services and CPR first, explain respiration at organismal and cellular levels from physiology sources, describe the named breathing patterns and forms, and distinguish respiration from photosynthesis, fermentation, ventilation alone and artificial respiration, without diagnosing individuals.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent route agonal or absent breathing to emergency services and CPR first, explain respiration at organismal and cellular levels from physiology sources, describe the named breathing patterns and forms, and distinguish respiration from photosynthesis, fermentation, ventilation alone and artificial respiration, without diagnosing individuals.
The biological processes of gas exchange and energy release, covering breathing or ventilation, the movement of air in and out of the lungs through nasal or mouth breathing, and cellular respiration, in which cells break down nutrients to release energy as ATP, occurring in animals, plants through plant respiration, and microbes; the registry aliases include agonal respiration, gasping breaths that are a sign of cardiac arrest, mouth breathing with nasal obstruction and enteral respiration, gas exchange through the intestine found in some fish and studied experimentally in mammals. Anyone unresponsive with gasping or abnormal breathing needs emergency services and CPR immediately.
What it is for: Obtaining oxygen and releasing energy.
It can be route abnormal breathing emergencies; explain breathing and cellular respiration; describe named forms; distinguish related processes.
Distinguishing features
Oxygen use
ATP production
Organismal and cellular levels
Emergency significance of abnormal breathing
What it looks like
Chest rising and falling in breathing; not visible at the cellular level.
Physical character
adult resting breathing rate: about 12-20 breaths per minute
ATP yield of aerobic respiration: about 30-32 ATP per glucose - modern estimates
enteral ventilation study in mammals: 2021 year - published in Med, attributed
How it is recognised
Gas exchange and cellular energy release
Agonal respiration, mouth breathing, nasal breathing, enteral respiration, plant respiration
Photosynthesis stores energy; fermentation releases energy without oxygen; ventilation is air movement alone; artificial respiration is a rescue technique
