Anatomy respiratory
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| conducting portionarea of the respiratory passageways that extends from the opening of the nasal cavity to the smallest bronchioles | conducting portion |
| incomplete portion of C shaped cartilages are located posterior of the tracheal cartilages, to permit the esophagus to bulge anteriorly into the tracheal lumen in transient fashion to permit a large bolus to pass | significance of C shaped cartilages reinforcing tracheal rings OK! |
| what is shared by the digestive and respiratory systems? OK? | pharynx OK! |
| area of the respiratory system that includes the larynx and respiratory tree OK? | lower respiratory tract OK! |
| chamber posterior to the uvula and base of the tongue | oropharynx ! |
| fissures divide the lungs into | lobes |
| false vocal folds are also called | vistibular folds |
| together, epithelium and lamina propria of the respiratory tract constitute | mucous membrane |
| structures that form the respiratory membrane: | Type 1 alveolar cell and basement membrane of alveolar epithelium and capillary walls |
| during extreme exertion, inspiration may be aided by | serratus anterior and levator scapulae |
| ridge found at the bifurcation of the trachea is called | carina |
| surfactant functions to | reduce surface tension in the fluid coating alveolar surfaces to prevent alveolar collapse. |
| compared with the primary bronchus, right primary bronchus is | wider & steeper less resistant to air flow more prone to blockage |
| most important skeletal muscles involved in making normal relaxed respiratory movements include | diaphragm and external & internal intercostal muscles |
| superior and inferior lobes of the left lung are separated by the | oblique fissure |
| curving anterior surface of the lungs is called | costal surface |
| secondary bronchi are also termed __________ | lobar bronchi |
| each tertiary bronchus leads to one | brochopulmonary segment |
| the middle lobar bronchus is found | in the right lung only |
| first passage way of the respiratory portion of the respiratory tract is called | respiratory bronchiole |
