Respiratory

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Respiratory system divisions   Conducting portion respiratory portion  
🗑
Conducting Portion   "Respiratory Epithelium" same as ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium  
🗑
Components of Respiratory Epithelium (5)   Ciliated columnar cells mucous goblet cells basal cells small granule (k) cells Brush Cells  
🗑
Goblet Cells   More in conducting portion and disappear the farther you go down into the respiratory portion. Good to use as landmark  
🗑
Loose connective tissue in respiratory is now called ____________   lamina propria  
🗑
Ciliated columnar cells   most numerous cell type in teh respiratory epithelium  
🗑
Cilia movement   beat toward the oral cavity  
🗑
Mucous Goblet cells   secrete mucus that traps particles and soluble gases  
🗑
What moves mucus   cilia move teh mucus along teh epithelium  
🗑
Basal cells   small, round cells that differentiate into other cell types  
🗑
Small granule cell   neuroendocrine cells are more numerous in teh bronchi than in the rest of the respiratory system.  
🗑
Brush cells   have microvilli and are thought to be a type of chemoreceptor  
🗑
mucosa   epithelium, basement membrane plus the underlying lamina propria  
🗑
Critical clinical difference between stratified squamous epithelium and respiratory epithelium   stratified squamous epithelium does not have cilia, thus it is more vulnerable to colonizaiont and infection than respiratory epithelium  
🗑
Olfactory epithelium   located in roof of nasal cavity on sides of the nasal septum on the superior nasal conchae  
🗑
Vestibule   internal nasal cavity; lined by nonkeratinized strat. squam. epithelium. Lining can change to pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium posteriorly. Contains vibrissae (short hairs) to filter out large particles.  
🗑
Three types of cells in olfactory epithelium   Sustentacular cells Basal Cells Olfactory Cells  
🗑
Sustentacular cells are _____________   supporting cells  
🗑
Basal cells give rise to _____________   other cell types  
🗑
Olfactory cells are ___________ sensory neurons   bipolar  
🗑
Cilia at base of olfactory cells act as   receptors for chemical stimuli  
🗑
Laimina propria under teh olfactory epithelium contain:   blood vessels nerves bowman's glands (mostly serous)  
🗑
paranasal sinuses   lined with a thin respiratory epithelium  
🗑
secretions from paranasal sinuses are moved ___________   into the nasal cavity by cilia  
🗑
nasopharynx   lined with respiratory epithelium  
🗑
oropharynx   lined with stratified squamous nonkeratiizezed epithelium (it is part of the digestive system as well)  
🗑
Larynx   responsible for voice production; epithelium is mainly a respiratory epithelium.  
🗑
Lamina propria of Larynx   contains mixed muco-serous glands and the laryngeal cartilages  
🗑
Cartilage in the larynx   both hyaline and elastic cartilages  
🗑
Bowman's glands   produces watery secretion that washes the olfactory cilia to prepare for new smells. Also disolves in secretions dectected by the olfactory cilia for smell  
🗑
Epiglottis   1. stratifed squamous nonkeratinized epithelium on the lingual surfaces 2. Respiratory epithelium on the lower laryngeal surface  
🗑
Vestibular folds   false cords lie superior to vocal cords loose connective tissue containing glands, lymphoid aggregations, & fat cells. Covered by respiratory epithelium.  
🗑
Vocal cords   true vocal cords skeletal muscle, vocal ligament (elastic fibers) and a covering of stratified squamous nonkeratinized epithelium  
🗑
Laryngitis   inflammation of the larynx. edema of the mucous membrane over the vocal cords cause voice impairment  
🗑
Primary Bronchi   arise from subdivisions of teh trachea  
🗑
Primary bronchi give rise to   secondary and tertiary bronchi  
🗑
Bronchi   lining is still a respiratory epithelium As hyaline cartilage decreases, smooth muscle increases. Look for ratio...not a huge amount of smooth muscle  
🗑
Bronchiole   Diameter of 5mm or less LOSE hyaline cartilage simploe ciliated columnar or cuboidal Surrounded by lung tissue Lacks glands in submucosa  
🗑
Terminal Bronchioles   Simple cuboidal epithelium Clara Cells No goblet cells smooth muscle and some elastic fibers Walls of terminal bronchioles are continuous  
🗑
Cara Cells   secrete glycosaminoglycans as surfactant metabolize airborn toxins divide  
🗑
Respiratory Bronchiole   transition to respiratory potrtion of lung Simple cuboidal lining bronchiole walls are interrupted by alveoli  
🗑
alveoli   pouch-like evaginations simple squamous epithelium site of 02 and CO2 exchange  
🗑
Alveoli found:   respiratory bronchiole walls alveolar ducts alveolar sacs  
🗑
Alveoli are separated by ______________   inter alveolar septa that may contain 1 ore more alveolar pores  
🗑
Type I pneumocytes   cover 95% of alveolar Form tight junctions with adjacent cells Not able to divide Simple squamous with a different name  
🗑
Type II Cell (pneumocyte)   cuboidal cells that produce surfactant can differentiate into type I cells  
🗑
Cells of alveolar wall   Type I cell Type II cell Endothelial cells  
🗑
Respiratory membrane   1) alveolar epithelium 2) Capillary endothelium 3) intervening basement membrane  
🗑
Lung Macrophages   dust cells phagocytic clean up debris, bacteria, etc Septal connective tissue but mostly in airways  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
