Question
Answer
show Alveoli  
🗑
A lung disease characterized by inflamed, narrowed airways and difficulty breathing.   show
🗑
The main passageways directly attached to the lungs   show
🗑
Small passages in the lungs that connect bronchi to alveoli   show
🗑
show Cystic fibrosis  
🗑
The passage of fluid to an organ or a tissue   show
🗑
A membrane around the lungs and inside the chest cavity   show
🗑
A fluid secreted by alveoli and found in the lungs, prevents lung from collapsing (atelectasis)   show
🗑
show Tidal volume  
🗑
show Trachea  
🗑
The movement of air in and out of the body via inhalation and exhalation   show
🗑
show respiratory system  
🗑
The respiratory system is divided into the:   show
🗑
show The nose, nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, oral cavity, pharynx, glottis, and larynx.  
🗑
show Trachea and extends into the lungs via of bronchus into bronchioles and ending at the alveoli, where gas exchange occur  
🗑
The "BLANK" are the organs of respiration and are divided into"BLANK" lobes   show
🗑
Air continues to flow from the nasal and oral cavities into the "BLANK" a pathway beginning in the back of the throat and ending at the glottis   show
🗑
The "BLANK" is a shared passageway for both air and food and contains an opening for the digestive system, as well as the continuation of the respiratory system at the glottis.   show
🗑
show epiglottis  
🗑
show Glottis  
🗑
Sound is produced in the "BLANK" when air from the lungs is forced against the vocal chords.   show
🗑
Oxygen flow continues from the larynx into the "BLANK" which is the beginning of the lower respiratory tract.   show
🗑
The "BLANK" also known as the windpipe, consists of a rigid tube of cartilaginous rings and lies anterior to the esophagus.   show
🗑
show Right and left primary bronchi.  
🗑
show Secondary and even smaller tertiary bronchi.  
🗑
show Bronchioles.  
🗑
show The alveoli.  
🗑
show Single layer of epithelial tissue  
🗑
show Capillaries,  
🗑
show Oxygen  
🗑
"BLANK" diffuses out of the tissues into the red blood cells and then the Alveoli to be exhaled from the lungs.   show
🗑
The "BLANK" and "BLANK" in the brainstem monitor the levels of CO2 and pH in the blood.   show
🗑
show CO2, H+ ions  
🗑
show inhalation  
🗑
"BLANK" increases the volume of the thoracic cavity and in turn causes the lung volume to "BLANK" .   show
🗑
show Decreases, high (outside lungs) to low (inside lungs).  
🗑
"BLANK" occurs passively with the relaxation of the diaphragm and the intercostal muscles.   show
🗑
show Decreases  
🗑
show Increases  
🗑
show The total lung capacity (TLC)  
🗑
show vital capacity, residual volume  
🗑
The amount of gas that can be exhaled after a maximum inspiration, as in exhaling after a deep breath is   show
🗑
show The residual volume (RV)  
🗑
"BLANK" is a measure of the ease of expanding the lungs.   show
🗑
Lung compliance depends on two respiratory characteristics:   show
🗑
show Emphysema  
🗑
"BLANK" cause increased resistance to lung expansion, resulting in a low compliance.   show
🗑
