Respiratory Sys

exam IV

QuestionAnswer
6 functions of respiratory system cleaning &filtering air, ventilation, gas exchange, gas transport, smell ,speech
our ventilation is called negative draft ventilation
breathing IN is called inspiration
breathing OUT is called expiration
pressure within the lung is called alveolar pressure
pressure within the pleural cavities is called intrapleural pressure
describe Boyle's law volume increases, pressure decreases/ volulme decreases, pressure increases
exchanged during one respiratory cycle while at rest TV- tidal volume
expiration is by elastic recoil
the main muscle of ventilation is the diaphragm
the ribs and sternum are elevated by contraction of the external intercostal muscles
more muscles are activated during ____________ when more air is inspired and must be forcefully activated forced ventilation
describe gas exchange in lungs diffusion of O2 from alveoli into the blood and the diffusion of CO2 from the blood into the alveoli- occurs across the respiratory membrane
what makes up the respiratory membrane alveolar cells, capillary endothelial cells and their basement membranes
describe Henry's Law the amount of gas that dissolves from a gaseous state into a liquid state is proportional to the partial pressure and the solubiltiy of that gas at a given temp
CO2 is transported in three ways 7-10% dissolved in plasma, 20-30% chemical bond to hemoglobin forms carbaminohemoglobin, 60-70% converted to molecule carbonic acid and then transported in plasma as sodium bicarbonate
terminal bronchoile supplies air to lobule
each terminal bronchiole divides intio several respiratory bronchioles
resp. bronchioles divide into alveolar ducts
alveolar ducts supply air to alveolar (air) sacs
each air sac composed of two or more smaller alveoli(us)
air moves into lungs when pressure inside lungs is less than atmospheric pressure
how does the alveolar pressure become reduced to below atmospheric contraction of diaphragm and rib muscles
air moves out of lungs when pressure inside lungs is greater than atmospheric- describe how this happens 1-diaphragm & intercostals relax 2-chest gets smaller 3-elastic recoil of alveoli creates alveolar pressure greater than atmospheric 4- air is pushed out of lungs 5-expiration is passive
what is it & describe Dalton's Law law of partial pressure-in a mixture of gasses, the total pressure is equal to the sum of pressures contributed by each individual gas, termed partial pressures=Pg
Partial pressure is based on amount of gas in air and blood
PP in lungs: O2 increases in oxygentated blood to between 80-100mmHg (av.=95)
PP in lungs: CO2 decreases in oxygenated blood to between 35-45 mmHg (av.=40)
PP in tissues: O2 decreases in deoxygenated blood to between 37-42 mmHg (av.=40)
PP in tissues: CO2 increases in deoxygenated blood to between 42-50 mmHg (av.=45)
PP in lungs: PP of O2 in alveolar air > in deoxygentated blood so ___ diffuses into blood O2
PP in lungs: PP of CO2 >in deoxygenated blood than in alveolar air, so ___ diffuses into alveolus CO2
PP in tissues: PP of O2 in oxygenated blood > than in tissues, so ___ diffuses into tissues O2
PP in tissues: PP of CO2 > in tissues than in oxygenated blood, so ___ CO2 diffuses into blood from tissues
PvO2 is symbol for PP of oxygen in _______ (venous) blood and is about ____mmHg deoxygenated/ 40
PvCO2 is symbol for PP of CO2 in _______(venous) blood and is about ____ mmHg oxygenated/ 45
Henry's Law states (breif explanation) more oxygen in the air results in more oxygen in the blood
what effects the amount of gas that will dissolve into a liquid according to Henry's Law PP of gas, solubility of gas in liquid, temp of liquid
98.5% of O2 is carried by ________ iron of hemoglobin
__________picks up O2 in lungs and delivers it ot tissues hemoglobin
hemoglobin becomes ___________when it picks up O2 in lungs oxyhemoglobin
hemoglobin becomes __________when O2 is delivered to tissues deoxyhemoglobin
abbreviation for hemoglobin Hb
symbol for oxyhemoglobin Hb-O2
symbol for deoxyhemoglobin Hb-H
_____has affinity for O2 Iron
each Hb molecule has 4 _____groups and each heme contains an ______atom heme/iron
pick-up of O2 in lungs by iron is called loading
delivery (release by iron) of O2 in tissues is called unloading
loading is aka_____respiration external
unloading is aka _______respiration internal
PO2 main factor in O2 loading and unloading : in lungs/ in tissues higher PO2 in lungs favors loading/ lower PO2 in tissues favors unloading
in lung capillaries PO2 is ____ and O2 binds to ____ high/ Hb
in tissue capillaries PO2 is ____and ______releases O2 low/ Hb-O
in resting person, nearly _____% of O2 unloaded, this is aka _______rate 25/basil
lower pH of tissues capillaries favors ________of O2 unloading
name 4 factors that favor unloading O2 1-lower PO2 2-lower pH 3-higher temp 4- higher BPG
name 3 factors that favor loading O2 1-higher PO2 2- higher pH 3- lower temp
higher PCO2 of tissue capillaries favors loading or unloading unloading
increased CO2= increased ________ when CO2 is dissolved in water carbonic acid (H2CO3)
higher pH of lungs capillaries favors loading or unloading loading
Hb has higher affinity for O2 at higher or lower pH higher
Bohr effect- release of O2 at higher or lower pH lower
what % of CO2 is converted to HCO3 70
most bicarbonate transported in plasma as sodium bicarbonate
hemoglobin that has bound CO2 is termed carbaminohemoglobin
name 2 advantages in forming bicarbonate 1-bicarbonate is more soluble than CO2 in plasma 2- HCO3 is an acid buffer
in the medulla oblongata __________cells are active for 2 seconds and then inactive for 3 seconds during respiration autorhythmic
which area of the medulla oblongata controls the basic rhythm of respiration inspiratory
the __________area of the medulla is inactive during most quiet breathing & active only during __________ventilation expiratory/ forced
