| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Alveoli (Function and Location) | Function-where gas exchange occurs Location- end of bronchioles (deepest part of lungs) |
| list the flow of O2 | Trachea-> Bronchi -> Lung-> Bronchioles -> alveoli -> Blood |
| Lungs (Function and Location) | Function: Houses the respiratory system Location: Right and left side of chest |
| Trachea (Function and Location) | Function: Windpipe. Carries O2 to the bronchi and lungs Location: In throat |
| Nasal Cavity (Function and Location) | Function: Brings air from nose to trachea Location: Behind nose |
| Bronchial Tubes (Bronchi and Bronchioles) | Bronchi- Branch from trachea, outside of lungs Bronchioles- Branch from bronchi in the lungs ` Location: Branches of trachea into lungs |
| Larynx (Function and Location) | Function-Voice box; hold vocal chords Location-Above trachea |
| Diaphragm (Function and Location) | Function- Muscles that move the lungs (inhale and exhale) Location- Below- the lungs |
| What are 3 diseases caused by smoking? | Chronic bronchitis, Emphysema, and Lung Cancer |
| What is Chronic bronchitis? | Bronchi inflamed and clogged by mucus |
| What is Emphysema? | Loss of elasticity in lungs and the eventual break down on lung tissue |
| What is Lung Cancer? | Over production of lung cells |
| Liver (Function) | Function: Conversion of potentially dangerous nitrogen wastes into a less toxic urea |
| Lungs (Function) | Function: Blood transports CO2 from body cells to lungs when you exhale. Lungs excrete CO2 and water vapor. |
| Kidneys (Function) | Function: Removes excess water, urea, and metabolic wastes from blood and produces and excretes urine |
| Uterers (Function) | Function: Transports urine from kidneys to bladder |
| Bladder (Function) | Function: Where urine is stored |
| Urethra (Function) | Function: Where urine is released out of your body |
| Nervous System Purpose: | Regulate bodily functions and processes and relays information. Movement, learning, body temperature, hunger, thirst, balance, reflexes, and reactions, heart rate, breathing. |
| Spinal Cord (Function) | Function: Connects all body parts to brain |
| Brain (cerebrum) (Function) | Function: Largest part of the brain. Responsible for voluntary or conscious activities. Intelligence, learning, judgement, thinking and memory |
| Brain (cerebellum) (Function) | Function: Muscle and joint position. Sensory input and coordination. Balance and posture |
| Brain Stem (Function) | Function: Connects brain and spinal cord. Swallowing, heart rate, breathing, life sustaining activities |
| What is Systemic circulation? | Longest part of circulation. Taking oxygenated blood to the different parts of the body and returning deoxygenated blood back to the heart. |
| What is the hearts blood flow? | Vena Cava-> R. atrium -> Tricuspid valve -> R. ventricle -> pulmonary valve -> pulmonary artery -> lungs -> pulmonary vein -> L. atrium -> mitral valve -> L. ventricle -> aortic valve -> aorta |
| Cardiovascular System Purpose: | Brings O2 to the body and tissues. Removes waste from the body and tissues (CO2) |
| Heart (Function) | Pumps blood |
| Arteries (Function) | Carries oxygen rich blood away from the heart to the rest of the body. Pulmonary artery is the only artery to carry oxygen poor blood |
| Capillaries (Function) | Where oxygen rich and oxygen poor blood is exchanged. Where arteries and veins meet |
| Arterioles (Function) | Connects arteries to capillaries |
| Veins (Function) | Carries oxygen poor blood from the body back to the heart. Pulmonary veins are the only veins that carry oxygen rich blood |
| Venules (Function) | Connects veins to capillaries |
| Blood (Function) | Carries oxygen to the body and CO2 back to the lungs |
| Most nutrient absorption occurs here | Small intestines |
| Stores bile | gallbladder |
| produces bile | liver |
| carbohydrate digestion begins here | mouth (amylase) |
| Protein digestion begins here | stomach (pepsin) |
| Protein digestion is completed here | small intestines |
| Most water absorption occurs here | Large intestines |
| No digestion occurs here, only propulsion | Esophagus (peristalsis) |
| Food is physically mixed and churned here | stomach |
| Fat digestion occurs here | small intestines |
| Secret enzymes into the duodenum that complete digestion | pancreas and gallbladder |
| Esophagus (Function and location) | Function: Carries food from mouth to stomach - peristalsis Location: No digestion |
| Mouth (Function and location) | Function: Where digestion starts- chemical- amylase breaks down carbs; Mechanical-chewing Location: Chemcial and Mechanical digestion |
| Pancreas | 1. Produces hormones that regulates blood sugar 2. Makes enzymes to break down carbs, proteins, fats, & nucleic acids 3. Makes sodium bicarbonate- neutralizes stomach acid -Most Chemical digestion and absorption of food and nutrients happens here |
| Small Intestines | 3 parts: -Duodenum- first part connected to stomach. Digestive juices enter -Jejunum- Middle part. Sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids absorbed here -Ileum- Last part, connected to the large intestines. Vitamin abortion happens -Chemical digestion |
| Gallbladder (Function and location) | Function: Store bile Location: Behind Liver-attached to the liver |
| Stomach (Function and location) | Chemical- pepsin breaks down protein Mechanical- Stomach contacts and moves Location- Chemical and mechanical digestion -Break down of food happens here |
| Liver (Function and location) | Function: Makes bile- bile digests the fats we eat Location: Chemical digestion |
| Pharynx (Function and location) | Function: Connects nasal and mouth cavities Location: In throat |
