Respiratory System
Question | Answer |
---|---|
What are the "ingrediants" for ATP? | Glucose + O2 |
Gas diffusion between lungs & blood? | External respiration |
Gas diffusion between blood & tissues? | Internal respiration |
Entry & absorbtion of Oxygen is required for ____________ respiration | Aerobic |
Waste product of aerobic respiration | Carbon Dioxide (CO2) |
Components of upper repiratory tract: | Nose/nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx |
Components of lower respiratory tract: | Trachea, Lungs, respiratory tree, alveoli |
These cells produce Mucous | Goblet cells |
________________ Movement clears mucous to pharynx. | Ciliary movement |
This chemical stops ciliary movement | Nicotine |
Warms, filters, and moistens air | Nasal cavity |
Channels air into respiratory pathway | Pharynx |
What 3 parts make up the larynx? | Glottis (opening), epiglottis(flap that covers glottis), and vocal cords |
Name the parts that dictate airflow in order from beginning to end: | Nose/nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, primary bronchi, lungs, Bronchioles, alveoli |
What is the purpose of smooth muscle in the respiratory tract? | Controls bronchoconstriction and dilation |
Relatively hollow, and contains millions of alveoli | Lungs |
This holds the lung tissue against the cavity wall. | Pleural membrane |
Penetration of the pleural cavity through injury that causes the lung to collapse | Pneumothorax |
T/F: Atmospheric pressure equals internal lung pressure at rest | True |
Skeletal muscle contraction, lung volume increases, lung pressure falls below atmospheric pressure, air enters respiratory tract. | Inspiration |
Muscle relaxation, lung tissue recoils to decrease lung volume, lung pressure increases above atmospheric pressure. | Expiration |
Air moves from ________ to ________ pressure | High to low |
Amount of air that enters and leaves in one cycle. | Tidal volume |
What is Inspiratory reserve volume? | Extra air during forced inspiration |
What is expiratory reserve volume? | Amount of air that is exhaled during forced expiration |
Air remaining after forced expiration | Residual volume |
Forcing air against a closed glottis | Cough |
Similar physiology to cough | Sneeze |
Diaphragm spasm with closed glottis | Hiccup |
Appears to be a social signal | Yawn |
Central chemoreceptors are located here | Medulla oblongata |
Increased ________ yields increased ________ | CO2, H+ |
Located in carotid and aortic bodies | Peripheral chemoreceptors |
Controls the rate of respiration based on input from chemoreceptors | Medulla |
controls respiratory rhythm | Pons |
Determined by length and tension of vocal cords | Pitch |
Depends upon force of air over vocal cords | Loudness |
Sound is shaped into language by the action of the ________, ________, ________, and ________ | Pharynx, tongue, soft palate, and lips |
What 2 layers make up the alveolar structure? | Alveolus lining & capillary epithelium |
Each hemoglobin contains how many globin molecules? | 4 |
Each globin molecule contains a _______ group with what kind of core? | Heme group; Iron core |
Each heme group can reversibly bind how many O2 molecules? | One |
Hemoglobin that is full of oxygen | Oxyhemoglobin |
Hemoglobin that is not fully loaded | Deoxyhemoglobin |
Hemoglobin with attached CO2 | Carbaminohemoglobin |
What is carbon monoxide poisoning? | When CO attaches to O2 binding sites, CO binds 200x more tightly than oxygen and is not easily released. This results in a lack of O2. |
Name 3 URT infections | Rhinitis (Cold), Sinusitis (Sinus infection), Pharyngitis (Soar throat) |
Name 3 LRT infections | Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, Influenza |
Chronic bacterial infection often associated with tobacco use that causes tissue necrosis | Emphysema |
Typically leads to narrowing of airways and loss of lung elasticity | Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) |
