01 - Respiratory System Flashcards
(Respiratory Anatomy)
(nasal cavity)
- do what three things?
- what percentage of total respiratory resistance?
- carry air, modify air, olfaction
- 50%
(Respiratory Anatomy)
(paranasal sinuses - frontal, ethmoid, maxillary, cornual)
- encased in what?
- easily occluded by what?
- bone
- inflammation
(Conducting System)
(nasal, paranasal, trachea, bronchi)
(nasopharynx)
- glands and lymphoid tissue
- initial impact of what occurs here?
(larynx)
- potential for what?
- inhaled particles or microbes
- high airway resistance
(Conducting System)
(trachea)
- cervical and thoracic segments under different pressures during what?
(bronchi)
- what percentage of lung resistance in first 4 to 7 divisions?
- respiration
- 80%
(Transitional System (bronchioles)
- progressive increase or decrease in ciliated epithelium and goblet cells?
- susceptible to obstruction… why?
- decrease
- small diameter and lack of cartilage
(Gas Exchange System = alveolus)
- What is the order of the blood-air barrier?
- type 1 pneumocytes - > basement membrane -> interstitium -> endothelium
answer is D
gander
(Avian Respiratory System)
- choanal slit in upper palate communicates with what?
- soft-walled infraorbital sinus… not incased in what?
- nasal cavity
- bone
(Avian Respiratory System)
- dorsal and ventral bronchi –> parabronchi –> ?
what kind of exchange here?
- Are air sacs vascular? what does this mean?
serve as what?
how many?
- air capillaries
counter current exchange in air capillaries
- no - no oxygen exchange
bellows for two cycle air movement
nine in most
(Respiratory Histology)
(conducting system)
- what kind of epithelium?
- ciliated, psuedostratified columnar #1
- mucous cells = ?
mucus = complex of what three things to form viscoelastic material?
- what provides smell and can bioactivate chemicals into potentially toxic intermediate forms?
- reserve/stem cells = ?
- What cover lymphoid tissue at junction of bronchi and bronchioles?
- squamous epithelium
- goblet cells
water, glycoprotein, lipids
- olfactory sensory epithelium
- basal cells
- M cells (follicle-associated epithelium
(Conduction System: Nasopharynx)
(Horses)
- eustachian tube extends from middle ear to nasopharynx and has a ventral diverticulum… called what? important why?
- the guttural pouch; ascending infections (fungi and bacteria)
