31
Q

tracheal wall/ inner lining cell types present

A
  • Respiratory epithelium
  • Basal stem cells
32
Q

trachea

A

wind pipe
12 cm long on average
anterior to esophagus

33
Q

tracheal cartilage

A

c shapped

34
Q

trachealis

A

smooth muscle on posterior
will give a little wiggle room when you choke n shitt

35
Q

Carina

A

internal median ridge on
lowest tracheal cartilage
will split here
if shit on here, will caugh

36
Q

tracheal wall mucociliary escalator

A

the hairs will beat mucous towards shit in trachea to make sure it no stick

37
Q

Adventitia layer in tracheal wall

A

outermost
connects trachea to neighboring organs

38
Q

lobular bronchi (2nd)

A

3 on right, 2 on left

39
Q

right bronchi

A

more verticle, wider than left

40
Q

segmental bronchi (3)

A

10 on right
8 on left

41
Q

Bronchioles

A

1 mm or less in diameter
splits into over 50 terminal bronchioles

42
Q

Terminal bronchioles

A

Final branches of conducting zone

43
Q

Respiratory bronchioles

A

Have alveoli (where gas exchange is)

44
Q

Alveolar ducts

A

Elongated in alveoli

45
Q

Alveolar sac

A

– Cluster around atrium

46
Q

Cardiac impression/ notch

A

notch on left lung to accommodate the heart

47
Q

mediastinal surface of the lungs

A

inner surface

48
Q

costal surface of lung

A

the smooth, convex outer surface of the lung that’s in contact with the rib cage

49
Q

hilum of mediastinal surface

A

slit

50
Q

right lobes

A

superior middle inferior

51
Q

horizontal fissure

A

Between superior and middle lobe of right lung

52
Q

Oblique fissures

A

slanted fissure in both lungs

53
Q

Squamous (type I) /alveolar/ palmer cells

A

simple squamous thin and spread out
95% of surface area
help with gas exchange

54
Q

Great (type II) alveolar cells

A

– 5% of surface area
– most numerous
– make surfactant
– Repair alveolar epithelium

55
Q

surfactant is

A

(phospholipids and protein)
disrupt h bonding

56
Q

Alveolar macrophages

A

will target dust cells and other small shits

57
Q

respiratory membrane layers

A

squamous alveolar
basement membrane
capillary endothelial cells

58
Q

air pathway from nose

A

nasopharynx
oropharynx
larynopharynx
larynx
trachea
bronchi
bronchioles
aveoli

59
Q

Visceral pleura

A

On lung surface

60
Q

Parietal pleura

A

On inner surface of rib cage

61
Q

Pleural cavity

A

-between visceral and parietal pleurae
-Contains pleural fluid
-reduced friction

62
Q

how pleural cavity creates pressure gradient

A

Attaches lung to thorax wall so thorax movements change lung pressure

63
Q

pleural cavity role in infection

A

prevents spread to or from nearby organs

64
Q

diaphragm

A

Prime mover of pulmonary
ventilation
Relaxes for expiration

65
Q

diaphragm for inspiration

A

Contraction pulls it down
and enlarges thoracic cavity
for inspiration

66
Q

External intercostal mm

A

Elevate the ribs in respiration

67
Q

Internal intercostal mm

A

– Depresses the ribs (passive)
– Helps elevate the ribs (intercartilaginous part)

primary respiratory pacemaker

70
Q

Dorsal respiratory group
(DRG)

A

– signals VRG to modify breathing

71
Q

Respiratory centers of the
pons

A

– Pontine Respiratory Group

72
Q

aging resp system

A

ventilation down (lose elastic)
less alveoli
more infections
obstructive pulmonary disease more
