    Why is pneumonia so dangerous? - Eve Gaus and Vanessa Ruiz

    Explore how pneumonia attacks the tiny air sacs in your lungs and how your immune system works to fight off the infection.--Every time you breathe, air travels down the trachea, through a series of channels, and then reaches little clusters of air sacs in the lungs. These tiny sacs facilitate a crucial exchange: allowing oxygen from the air we breathe into the bloodstream and clearing out carbon dioxide. Pneumonia wreaks havoc on this exchange system. Eve Gaus and Vanessa Ruiz detail how pneumonia attacks the lungs.Lesson by Eve Gaus and Vanessa Ruiz, directed by Artrake Studio.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-is-pneumonia-so-dangerous-eve-gaus-and-vanessa-ruizDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-is-pneumonia-so-dangerous-eve-gaus-and-vanessa-ruiz#digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.artrake.com/----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!

    Will the actual Fernando please stand up? - Ilan Stavans

    Get to know the life of enigmatic poet and writer Fernando Pessoa, who wrote not as himself but as other people he invented.--On November 30th, 1935, dozens of writers passed away. They came from different backgrounds, espoused divergent beliefs, and wrote in a variety of styles. Yet almost 30,000 pages of their work was stashed in a trunk in an apartment in Lisbon, Portugal. So, what mysterious string tied all these writers together? Ilan Stavans explores the enigmatic life of Fernando Pessoa and his many identities.Lesson by Ilan Stavans, directed by Héloïse Dorsan-Rachet.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/these-70-writers-are-actually-all-the-same-person-ilan-stavansDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/these-70-writers-are-actually-all-the-same-person-ilan-stavans/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.instagram.com/helo.dr/?hl=fr Music: https://soundcloud.com/aim-music----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
