Question
Answer
What are the three mechanisms that alone or in combination regulate alveolar pressure?   Musculature, relaxation, airway resistance  
🗑
Pressure which is generated entirely by passive forces   Relaxation pressure  
🗑
At resting expiratory level, relaxation pressure is...   zero  
🗑
During quiet tidal breating, relaxation following inhalation produces ________ relaxation pressure   positive  
🗑
Positive relaxation pressure provides the force for ________ exhalation   passive  
🗑
The forces of relaxation exert pressure until alveloar pressure is equal to   atmospheric  
🗑
Although relaxation pressure is generally considered an expiratory force, it may proide the force for passive inhalation at very ______ lung volumes.   low  
🗑
The relaxation-pressure curve graphically depicts the relationship between lung volume and ___________________ pressure.   alveolar  
🗑
At lung volumes above 38% vital capacity, inspiration is   active  
🗑
At lung volumes above 38% capacity, expiration is   passive  
🗑
At lung volumes below 38% vital capacity, inspiration is   active  
🗑
At lung volumes below 38% vital capacity, expiration is   active
