| Define aspiration | when fluid is accidently introduced into the airway. |
| Define pulmonary embolism. | When a small blood clot breaks away, from the origin of the clot, and blocks a branch of the pulmonary artery that goes from the heart to the lungs. |
| Define pneumothorax. | When alveoli in a lung collapse as a result of air leaking into the pleural space. |
| Define hemothorax. | When a lung collapses as a result of blood leaking into the pleural space. |
| Define COPD. | A disease where the lungs have a decreased capacity for gas exchange, like in emphysema and chronic bronchitis. |
| Define Asthma | A condition in which narrowing of the airways impedes breathing. |
| Define influenza. | A respiratory tract infection caused by an influenza virus. |

| Define dyspnea. | Labored or difficult breathing. |
| Define croup. | A childhood condition that causes an obstruction of of the larynx, a barking cough, and noisy breathing. |
| Define Pulmonary edema. | Caused by fluid filling the alveoli and bronchioles. |
| Define pleurisy. | Inflammation of the lining of the lungs and lung cavities. |

| Identify the major muscles of the eye that are responsible for the movement of the eye. | Superior oblique, superior rectus, medial rectus, lateral rectus, inferior rectus, and inferior oblique. |
| Identify the sites on the eye where beta-adrenergic blockers work. | They block the beta sites in the eye from being activated. |
| What is the function of the tympanic membrane? | Protects the middle ear from foreign objects and transmits sounds into the middle ear. |
| How are messages transferred to the cranial nerve? | Sound waves cause the tympanic membrane to vibrate, these vibrations are transferred to the ossicles, from the ossicles they are transferred to the labyrinth and from the labyrinth to the cranial nerve. |

| Define posterior cavity. | The largest space in the eye that is surrounded by the lens, ciliary body, and retina. |
| Define iris. | It is responsible for the color of the eye and to filter light. |
| Define ciliary body. | Forms a ring around the front of the eye and is responsible for holding the lens in place. |
| Define vitreous body. | To hold the shape and form of the eye. |
| Define vitreous humor. | Jelly-like substance that fills the area between the lens and the retina. |
| Define retina. | A thin layer of tissuse that contains neurons, nerves, pigmented epithelium, membranous tissues, and photoreceptors. |
| Define choroid. | The layer of tissue just under the sclera. |
| Define fovea. | The innermost layer of the eye, it is where the sharpest vision occurs. |
