Respiratory and Circulatory Systems

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
nose   filters and warms air you breath  
🗑
larynx   voicebox  
🗑
trachea   windpipe  
🗑
alveoli   air sacs in your lungs  
🗑
pleural membrane   surrounds your lungs  
🗑
Where does cellular respiration take place in the cell?   mitochondria  
🗑
What is the primary job of cellular respiration?   to release ENERGY from digested nutrients (food).  
🗑
What does it mean if food releases more heat when burned?   It contains(has) more calories.  
🗑
What are the ingredients (inputs) of cellular respiration?   nutrients (glucose), oxygen  
🗑
What are the products (outputs) of cellular respiration?   energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, water  
🗑
Examples of homeostasis (respiratory and circulatory system)   more glucose is burned if you body needs more energy and your breathing rate increases during exercise  
🗑
Path of oxygen when you breath   mouth/nose, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, bloodstream  
🗑
vital capacity   the amount of air that person can exhale after a deep breath. *remember we measured this in lab  
🗑
What happens when you you inhale?   diaphragm moves DOWN, ribs go out, volume in chest cavity increases, and air pressure in lungs DECREASES  
🗑
what happens between the alveoli and capillaries?   oxygen and carbon dioxide gas exchange  
🗑
Can you ever remove all the air from your lungs?   no, you always have some remaining. *remember the sponge lab?  
🗑
Bromthymol Blue (BTB) checks for the presence of what substance?   carbon dioxide  
🗑
why do you exhale more carbon dioxide?   during cellular respiration, cells produce carbon dioxide as waste.  
🗑
What is the aorta?   the "superhighway" that carries oxygenated blood out of the heart and UP into the body  
🗑
which way does blood flow through the left ventricle?   flows down. *know you heart diagram  
🗑
which way does blood flow through the right ventricle?   flows up. *know your heart diagram  
🗑
flaps of tissue between heart chambers   valve  
🗑
Where does blood from the right atrium come from? Which way does the blood flow?   vena cava and it flows down to the right ventricle.  
🗑
Pulmonary veins bring oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the...   left atrium, left ventricle and aorta (then to the body)  
🗑
red blood cells   carries oxygen to body cells  
🗑
white blood cells   protects the body against disease  
🗑
platelet   aids in clotting of blood after a cut  
🗑
plasma   liquid part of the blood  
🗑
is the human circulatory system opened or closed?   closed because there is no entry or exit  
🗑
how many chambers in the heart?   four chambers  
🗑
Which ventricle is stronger?   the left ventricle is stronger because it pumps blood to the whole body instead of just the lungs.  
🗑
why do body's cells come back to the heart with less oxygen?   the body cells use oxygen for respiration  
🗑
what happens to your blood pressure, when arteries build up with plaque?   the blood pressure increases  
🗑
what are some risk factor for high blood pressure?   excess cholesterol, obesity, smoking  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
