respiratory system part 2

QuestionAnswer
___ process involved in the exchange of oxygen and co2 between the bodies interstitial fluids and the external environment external respiration
____ is the absorption of O2 and release of Co2 by tissue cells internal respiration
the primary function of pulmonary ventilation "breathing" is to maintain adequate ____ alveolar ventilation
During inhalation: pressure inside the lungs is less than pressure outside the body.
gas in a closed container and at a constant temperature, pressure (P) is inversely proportional to volume (V) is an example of ____ law Boyle's law
when the diaphragm contracts it tenses and moves inferiorly. This movement ____ the volume of the thoracic cavity, reducing the pressure within it increases
an injury that allows air into the pleural cavity causing the lung to collapse is a condition called atelectasis
the ____ volume is the amount of air moved into the lungs during inhalation and out of the lungs during exhalation tidal
___ is the most common unit for reporting blood pressure and gas pressure. Normal atmospheric pressure is ~ ___mm Hg (mm Hg) millimeters of mercury
pressures in compressed gas cylinders and other industrial applications are generally reported in ___ psi "pounds per square inch"
the ___ and ____ muscles are both involved in inhalation diaphragm, external intercostal
contraction of the ____ muscles assist the _____ muscles in elevating the ribs accessory, external intercostal
___ of the ____ flattens the floor of the thoracic cavity, increasing its volume and drawing air into the lungs contraction, diaphragm
what are the muscles that depress the ribs and reduce the width and depth of the thoracic cavity ? internal intercostal and transversus thoracis
during exhalation the ____ muscles depress the ribs and push the relaxed diaphragm into the thoracic cavity accessory expiratory
Which of the following is an accessory expiratory muscle? transversus thoracis muscle
___ is the amount of air you can breathe in over and above the tidal volume IRV "inspiratory reserve volume"
___ is the amount of air you move into or out of your lungs during a single cycle under resting conditions tidal volume
____ is the amount of air that you can voluntarily expel after you have completed a normal, quiet respiratory cycle ERV "expiratory reserve volume"
___ is a component of the residual volume, is the amount of air that would remain in your lungs if they were to collapse minimal volume
____ is the total volume of your lungs, it is calculated by adding the VC vital capacity and the RV residual volume total lung capacity
___ volume is the amount of air that remains in your lungs even after a maximal exhalation residual volume
_____ is the amount of air remaining in your lungs after you completed a quiet respiratory cycle. FRC functional residual capacity
____ is the maximum amount of air that you can move into or out of your lungs in a single respiratory cycle vital capacity
____ is the amount of air you can draw into your lungs after you have completed a quiet reparatory cycle inspiratory capacity
____ is the amount of breaths you take each minute respiratory rate
____ is the amount of air reaching the alveoli each minute alveolar ventilation
the alveolar ventilation is less than the respiratory minute volume, because some of the air never reaches the alveoli, but remains in the conducting portion of the lungs. This is known as ___ anatomic dead space
all the partial pressures added together equal the total pressure exerted by the gas mixture, this is known as ____ law daltons
at a given temperature, the amount of gas in solution is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas, this is known as ____law henrys
the percentage of hemi units containing bound oxygen at any given moment is called ___ hemoglobin saturation
carbon dioxide is generated by ____ in peripheral tissues aerobic metabolism
after entering the bloodstream, a Co2 molecule is ___ 1. converted to a molecule of carbonic acid 2. bound to the protein portion of hemoglobin molecules of rbis 3. dissolved in plasma
Most of the carbon dioxide that is absorbed by blood:is converted to carbonic acid.
most of the co2 absorbed by blood is converted to carbonic acid through the activity of the enzyme ____ carbonic anhydrase
___ is a mass movement of chloride ions into the rbcs chloride shift
VE (volume of air moved each minute) = ____ x _____ F (breaths per minute), VT (tidal volume)
