        Help!  

Question
Answer
respiration involves the ____ system and the ____ system   respiratory and the circulatory  
🗑
What are the 4 processes of respiration   ventilation, external respiration, transport, internal respiration  
🗑
Does ventilation occur in the respiratory system or the circulatory system   respiratory  
🗑
Ventilation is simply what   breathing/the exchange between lungs and outside  
🗑
Does external respiration is occur in the respiratory system or the circulatory system   respiratory system  
🗑
External respiration the exchange of ___ and ___ between the lungs and the blood   CO2 and O2  
🗑
What is transport   transport is when O2 and CO2 are in the blood  
🗑
Transport happens in the respiratory or the circulatory   circulatory  
🗑
Internal respiration happens in the ciruclatory or the respiratory   circulatory  
🗑
What is internal respiration   when O2 and CO2 exchange between systemic blood and tissues  
🗑
What is the middle of the nose called   septum  
🗑
What are conchae   ridges in the nasal cavity to increase surface area  
🗑
The increase of surface area caused by the conchae increases what! what does this do for you   air turbulence, it makes for better cleaning and warming the air that comes in  
🗑
Olfactory receptors are   smell receptors  
🗑
Where are the olfactory receptors located   the top of the nasal cavity  
🗑
Most of what we tastes comes from   what we smell  
🗑
What are the 4 main functions of the nasal cavity   provides respiratory airway, mostiens/warms the entering air, filters and cleans the air you breathe, acts as a resonating chamber for speech  
🗑
How is the air warmed when you breathe it through your nose   because there are many capillary beds under the cilia in your nasal cavity that transports heat  
🗑
How does the nasal cavity filter   the cilia is covered in mucus so it captures particles  
🗑
Mucosa in the nasal cavity is secreted by what   pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium  
🗑
What does mucosa contain   lysozyme and defensins  
🗑
The cilia moves contaminated mucus to where   towards the throat  
🗑
Once the swallowed mucus reaches the alveoli, it is now what   sterile  
🗑
What triggers sneezing   sensory nerve endings  
🗑
What are paranasal sinuses   spaces in the skull  
🗑
What do sinuses do for the skull   lightens it  
🗑
Paranasal sinuses are ___ sacs   blind  
🗑
What does it mean that the sinuses are blind sacs   they lead to nowhere  
🗑
Because paranasal sinuses lead to nowhere, what happens   they can be easily infected because of a lack of movement  
🗑
Sinus headaches/ infections happen when there is a change in   pressure  
🗑
What are the 3 divisions of the pharynx   nasopharynx, oropharynx, laryngopharynx  
🗑
What lines the nasopharynx   pseduostratified columnar epitheilum  
🗑
The nasopharynx is posterior to what   nasal cavity  
🗑
What closes the nasopharynx during swallowing   the soft palate and uvula  
🗑
What lines the oropharynx   stratified squamous epithelium  
🗑
The oropharynx is the passage way for food and air ending at what structure   the epiglottis  
🗑
The laryngopharynx extends all the way to what structure   the larynx  
🗑
Tonsils help filter out what   bacteria  
🗑
Adenoid tonsils are located where   in the top right of the nasopharynx  
🗑
Can adenoid tonsils be removed   yes  
🗑
Where are palatine tonsils located   in the oropharynx  
🗑
Can the palatine tonsils be removed   yes  
🗑
Where are the lingual tonsils located   under the tongue  
🗑
Can lingual tonsils be removed   not unless there is cancer or a disorder  
🗑
The larynx attaches to what bone   the hyoid bone  
🗑
the layrnx opens into what part of the pharynx   the laryngopharynx  
🗑
The larynx is continuous with what structure   the trachea  
🗑
What are the 3 main functions of the larynx   provides a patent airway, routes food and air into proper channels, and voice production  
🗑
All of the larynx is _____ cartilage except for the _____   hyaline and epiglottis  
🗑
What are the 4 types of hyaline cartilage in the larynx   thyroid cartilage, cricoid cartilage, arytenoid cartilage, corniculate cartilage  
🗑
What is the adams apple created by   the protrusion of the thyroid crest  
🗑
what is the function of the epiglottis   it opens to allow air through but closes when you swallow to prevent food going into the trachea  
🗑
Babies can __ and ___ at the same time   swallow and breathe  
🗑
Why do babies need to be burped   because they swallow a lot of air  
🗑
The vocal ligaments attaches what   arytenoid cartilage to thyroid cartilage  
🗑
The opening between the vocal cords is what   the glottis  
🗑
The vocal folds/cords vibrate to do what   produce sound as air rushes up from the lungs  
🗑
The trachea is also known as the ___ pipe   wind  
🗑
About how long is the trachea and is the diameter of what   7 in and a garden hose  
🗑
The trachea is encased by what   C shaped rings of cartilage that open in the back  
🗑
What is behind the trachea   esophagus  
🗑
the C shape of the rings prevents what   food from being stuck from the rings protruding into the esophagus  
🗑
The trachialis muscles contracts during what to expel mucus   coughing  
🗑
What is the carina   last tracheal cartilage and the point where trachea branches into 2 bronchi  
🗑
There are about __ orders of branching of the bronchi   23  
🗑
The branching pattern of bronchi are called   bronchial respiratory tree  
🗑
What is the conducting zone   the conduits to gas exchange  
🗑
The conducting zone contains what structures   everything but the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli  
🗑
Each main bronchus enters the __ of one lung   hilum  
🗑
The right bronchus is what   bigger, wider, shorter, more verticle than the left  
🗑
Each main bronchus branches into what   lobar (secondary) bronchi, and segmental (tertiary) bronchi  
🗑
There are _ lobar bronchi on the right, and _ lobar bronchi on the left   3, 2  
🗑
The segemental bronchi are the ones that divide into what   bronchioles  
🗑
The smallest bronchioles are what   terminal  
🗑
Once the bronchi branch to bronchioles, what begins to change   the tissue that makes them up

🗑
What is the type one cell in the alveoli    
🗑
What is the type 2 cell in the alveoli   the cells that secrete surfactant  
🗑
What is surfactant   a detergent like substance that stops the sides of the alveoli from sticking together by reducing the surface tension  
🗑
When does surfactant develop   the 7th month in the womb  
🗑
