Respiratory Lab
A&P 2 Lab Exam 2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Naris | (external nostrils) |
| Nasal cavity | cavity behind the nose |
| Olfactory epithelium | Holds the olfaction nerve endings, right underneath the cribriform plate |
| Superior concha | Duh |
| Middle concha | Duh |
| Inferior concha | Duh |
| Middle meatus | Underneath the respective conchas |
| Inferior meatus | Underneath the respective conchas |
| Opening of auditory tube | Look for a teardrop-ish looking spot behind the conchas and above the back of the oropharynx, in the nasopharynx |
| Nasopharynx | The area of the throat directly behind the nasal cavity, immediately turns into the oropharynx at site where mouth enters to the throat |
| Oropharynx | Space above epiglottis and below nasopharynx |
| Laryngopharynx | Space in the throat after you pass the epiglottis downward |
| Epiglottis | Looks like a backwards tongue kinda, don't confuse with the glottis, that covers the trachea like stage curtains |
| Vestibular folds | Looks like folds by where the epiglottis is |
| Vocal folds | Where Adam's Apple is, true vocal cords are the ones on the edge, inner ones are false vocal cords |
| Thyroid cartilage | The outer wedge shape that forms the Adam's apple |
| Cricoid cartilage | The outer cover that is directly in between the tracheal disc looking things and the Adam's Apple |
| Trachea | Long tube that looks like dad's C-pap hose |
| Glottis | = lumen between true vocal cords |
| L. Primary Bronchus | Duh |
| R. Primary Bronchus | Duh |
| Superior lobe of R. Lung | Duh |
| Middle lobe of R. Lung | Duh |
| Inferior lobe of R. Lung | Duh |
| Superior lobe of L. Lung | Duh |
| Inferior lobe of L. Lung | Duh |
| Diaphragm | Fortune cookie underneath the lungs? |
| Visceral pleura | Inner pleura |
| Parietal pleura | Outer pleura |
| Spirometer | an instrument for measuring the air capacity of the lungs |
| Respiratory volume | a specific measure of the amount of air in the lungs during a particular phase of the breathing cycle. |
| Respiratory capacity | Respiratory capacity is a measure of the total usable air volume in the lungs that can be inhaled and exhaled during a single breath cycle. synonymous with vital capacity, which is the maximum volume of air that can be exhaled after a maximal inhalation |
| Tidal volume | the amount of air inhaled or exhaled during a normal, quiet breath — typically about 500 mL in healthy adults at rest |
| Expiratory reserve volume | the maximum amount of additional air you can forcefully exhale after completing a normal, quiet breath out. |
| Inspiratory reserve volume | the maximum amount of additional air that can be inhaled after a normal, quiet inspiration |
| Residual volume | the amount of air that remains in the lungs after you exhale as forcefully and completely as possible |
| Vital capacity | the maximum volume of air your lungs can move out after you inhale as fully as possible. VC is made up of three smaller volumes: tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume. |
