3.1 Work Breakdown, Products and Milestones:
 List the project task and, if possible at this stage include the sub-tasks. For each task add the product that will be created and indicate it will be a milestone.
Topic : Identifying the parts of the respiratory system. Understanding the mechanism of Respiration. Oberving the respiratory process in fishes, earthworm and insects Milestones: 1. Is there any difference between respiration and breathing. 2. What is the nature of lungs in your body? 3. Find out the pathway of respiratory gases when you inhale 4. How can you prove that you release out carbon dioxide during exhalation?
3.2 Role definition:
