| Vitamin B12 deficiency is also known as what | pernicious anemia |
| Leukemia is characterized by what | Large number of leukocytes and they are not functional |
| Thrombin converts what protein to fibrin | Fibrinogen |
| In what direction do arteries carry blood | away from the heart |
| What is the direction in veins | back to the heart |
| Which are the most muscular chambers of the heart? Why | Ventricles and they are the pumps of the heart |
| Where does blood go after leaving the right ventricle | pulmonary circulation |
| Where does blood go after leaving the left ventricle | systemic circulation |
| Name the three layers of the heart wall | endocardium, myocardium, and epicardium |
| What type of blood travels through the pulmonary artery | deoxygenated blood |
| What type of blood travels through the aorta | oxygenated blood |
| What is the function of valves | to keep blood flowing in one direction |
| Where is blood pressure the highest? | outside of left ventricle |
| where is blood pressure the lowest | outside or right atrium |
| Which leukocytes are producers of antibody | Plasma Cell |
| What is the condition in which a traveling clot blocks a blood vessel | embolism |
| Through what vessels does the heart get supplied with blood | right and left coronary artery |
| In an EKG, the height of the waves represents what electrical property | voltage |
| What part of the EKG corresponds to ventricular depolarization | QRS complex |
| Rh-positive blood indicates the presence of what antigen | antigen D |
| What do the formed elements consist of | RBC(erythrocytes) , platelets (thrombocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes) |
| What is the difference between serum and plasma | serum equals plasma minus clotting factors |
| Hyperventilation will cause what change in pH | PH will raise |
| What is the respiratory membrane | Sandwich two membrane endothelial cell plus alveolar cell |
| What happens to breathing as airway resistance rises? How does epinephrine help | Breathing becomes harder and it will cause bronchodilation |
| What are the differences between emphysema and asthma | Emphysema loss of surface area from permanent damage to the ling and asthma is temporary where bronchioles are constricted |
| What is the best way to increase AVR? What does this mean | Slow deep breathing means oxygen is absorbed to lungs at maximum |
| What are some ways a tissue may become hypoxic | Lack of blood flow, anemia, lack of iron, anything that interfered with oxygen transport |
| What is the nerve which innervates the diaphragm? | phrenic nerve |
| Acclimatization to high altitude causes what hormone to be produced | erythropoietin (EPO) |
| 43. What is the difference between internal and external respiration | Internal refers between oxygen and tissue and external blood and lung |
| 44. Where does rhinitis occur | nasal mucosa |
| 45. What is the function of respiratory cilia | brush mucus out of lungs |
| 46. What keeps alveolar surfaces sterile | macrophages |
| 47. How does the epithelium change as you go deeper into the lungs | You get a gradual transition to simple squamous |
| 48. Where do you find the auditory tube | nasal pharynx |
| 49. Which structure covers the glottis in the larynx | epiglottis |
| 50. Describe the relationship between the trachea and esophagus | trachea is always the anterior to esophagus and has a direct connect share a wall of tissue |
| 51. What happens to airflow into alveoli during bronchodilation | breathing becomes easier, airflow increases |
| 52. Where is the hilum located | medial aspect of lungs |

| how does oxygen know to enter blood stream and carbon to leave | diffusion (grading/solution) |
| olfactory | sense of smell Only part of nervous system that renews |
| what is the function of the cilia | move mucus around |
| septum | partions |
| rhinorrhea | Runny nose |
| thyroid | largest |
| cricoid | middle (ring Shape) |
| epiglottis | covers openings |
| trachea | cartilage on anterior on lateral walls 2 main bronchi right and left |
| bronchoconstriction | less air goes through passageway |
| bronchodilation | more air through bronchial tree |
| pleura | membrane that covers lungs |
| visceral pleura | stuck to lung |
| pariatal | away from lung |
| 2 areas of gas exchange | lung and tissue |
| what affects breathing | co2 |
