Question Answer
4 functions of the respiratory systemexchange gases, regulate pH, protect pathogens/irritants, vocalization
upper respiratory systemmouth, nasal cavity, larynx, pharynx
lower respiratory systemtrachea, primary bronchioles, alveloi
inspiratory musclesexternal intercostals, sternocleidomastoids, scalenes
expiratory musclesinternal intercostals, abdominals
processes of external respiration3exchanges-air between lungs & atm, O2& CO2 lungs and blood,gases blood & cells Transport O2 & CO2 by blood
Oxygen molecule from air to lungmouth, nose, pharynx, larynx,trachea, primary bronchi, branching bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli
functions of pleural fluidallow membranes to slide across each other, holds lungs tight against thoracic wall
Alveolar type I cellsexchange gases
Alveolar type II cellssecrete surfactant
Boyle's Lawbreathing decrease volume=increase pressure
Law of LaplaceLarger Alveoli have Lower pressure
Dalton's LawEGAD-exchange of gas is dalton's
respiratory system created volume changediaphram contracts, volume up, relaxes, volume down
The maximum volume of air that can be forcibly expired after normal expirationexpiratory reserve volume
The maximum volume of air that can be forcibly ispired after normal inspirationinspiratory reserve volume
The volume of air that remains in the respiratory system afer a forced expirationresidual volume
The volume of air moved during normal quiet breathingtidal volume
Vital capacity(VC) air moved in/out per minIRV+ERV+TV
Total lung capacity(TLC)vol air in lungs after max inhalationIRV+TV+ERV+RV
Functional residual capacity(FRC) vol air left after tidal exhalationERV+RV
Inspiratory capacity(IC) vol inhaled after tidal expiration IRV+TV
components to conditioning air before reaches alveoliwarm air, add moisture, filter foreign mat.
physical properties of lungscompliance(stretch)elasticity(recoil)surface tension(pressure w/in alveoli)
Air moves fromhigh to low pressure
forced expiration musclesinternal intercostals, abs
function of surfactantprevents surface tension from collapsing alveoli
bronchoconstrictiondecreased diameter & increased resistance
bronchodialationincreased diameter & decreased resistance
parameters that regulate diameter of bronchilesparacrines, nervous system control, hormones
CO2 & epibronchodialation
histamine & parasympathetic NSbronchoconstriction
receptor epi binds to in brochiolesB2
total pulmonary ventilationvolume of air moved into & out of lungs/min
alveolar ventilationvolume of air reaching alveoli/min
anatomic dead spacevolume of air that does NOT reach alveoli
Ventilation-perfusion matching in lungslocal regulation of airflow & blood flow changing diameter of arterioles & bronchioles
bronchiole diameter as CO2 increasesbronchodialation
pulmonary arteriole diameter as O2 decreasescontstrict
apneacessation of breathing
dyspneadifficulty breathing
factors that influend diffusion of gases between alveoli & bloodsurface areas of alveoli, diffusion distance, membrance thickness, [c] gradient of gas
O2 transported to the blood98% bound to Hb, 2% in plasma
structure of Hb4 globular protein + 1 heme
chemical element essential for Hb synthesisFe
hypoxiatoo little O2
hypercapniatoo much CO2
categories of problems from hypoxiainadequate O2 to alveoli, prob O2 exchange between alveoli & pulm caps, inadequate transport O2 in blood
Alveolar PO2 low because ofhigh altitude or hypoventilation
relationship between altitude and PO2increase in altitude, decrease in PO2
anemic hypoxiaHb with low O2(blood loss, anemia, CO poisoning)
ischemic hypoxiareduction in blood flow (heart failure,shock)
histotoxic hypoxiafailure of cells to use O2 properly(cyanide poisoning)
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curvegives % Hb sites that have bound O2 at diff PO2 loading and unloading of O2x=resting cell y= % O2 sat of Hb
causes shift to left on oxyhemoglobin curveO2 not bound to Hb-O2 increased affinity of Hb for O2
causes shift to right on oxyhemoglobin curveincrease in CO2-decreased affinity of Hb for O2
3 ways CO2 transported in bloodHCO3, dissolved CO2(plasma, carbaminohemoglobin(binds to)
equation in which CO2 converted into HCO3Co2 + H2O yields H2Co3 yeilds H + HCO3
enzyme that catalyzes CO2 conversioncarbonic anhydrase(CA)
chloride shiftCO2 diffuses into RBC ain in Cl ion inside blood, shifts rxn right RBC become more + HCO3 diffuses into blood
where reverse chloride shift occursalveoli
relationship between CO2 and pH levels in bloodCO2 increases pH decreases-inverse relationship
respiratory acidosisincreased CO2 retention-accum of carbonic acid & drop in pH
respiratory alkalosistoo little CO2 increase in pH (hyperventilate)
central chemoreceptorsmedulla-CO2, PO2, pH- increases ventilation
peripheal chemoreceptorscarotid/aortic bodies-PO2, pH, PCO2-increase ventilation
respiratory centerlocated in medulla and pons (CNS)
central chemoreceptors respond to increased PCO2increase PCO2=decreased pH of CSF receptors in medulla send messages to respiratory center medulla send signal via motor neurons to resp nucleus and ventilation increases
functions of kidneysregulate extracellular fluid volume & BP, reg somolarity, mainain ion balance, homeostatic reg of pH, excrete wasited, produce hormones
structures of urinary system in sequencekids, ureters, bladder, urethra
3 filtration barriers cross move from plasma into Bowman's capglomeruli consists of fenestrated caps, basal lamina, podocytes
forces promote glomerular filtrationhydrostatic of glomerus
forces oppose glomerular filtrationcolloid pressure, hydrostatic fluid pressure inside Bowman's cap
GCFGlomerular Filtration Rate - 125mL/min or 180L/day
cortical nephronsalmost completely contained w/in cortex
juxtamedullary nephronslong loops of H dip down into medulla, vasta recta here
renal corpusclecombo of glomerulus and Bowman's cap
renal portal systemafferent art to glomeruli to efferent art to peritubular caps
average amount of urine leaves body per day1-2L min 400 mL
filtration fraction% of total plasma volume that is filtered into nephron
factors that influence GFR mostnet filtration pressure, filtration coefficient

properites of mediated transportsaturation, competition, specificity
below saturation, the rate of transport is propotional to [substrate]
