16
Q

Tidal volume

A

regular breath

17
Q

Expiratory reserve volume

A

The extra amount of air you can exhale after a normal breath out.

18
Q

residual volime

A

air you cannot breathe out or your lungs will collapse on themselves

19
Q

Vital capacity

A

air that is inhaled and exhaled
excludes residual volume

20
Q

Inspiratory capacity

A

The total amount of air you can inhale after a normal exhale (this includes the tidal volume + inspiratory reserve volume).

21
Q

functional residual capacity

A

The total amount of air left in your lungs after a normal breath out (this includes the expiratory reserve volume + residual volume).

22
Q

Internal respiration

A

Happens in body cells. Oxygen goes from blood to cells, and carbon dioxide goes from cells to blood. oxygen is taken in from the blood and carbon dioxide is released.

happens in body cells

23
Q

External respiration

A

Happens in the lungs. Oxygen goes from air to blood, and carbon dioxide goes from blood to air.

24
Q

Approx 30% of the oxygen transfer happens by

A

fascilitated diffusion. no energy required

25
Q

in order, which two ways is oxygen carried in the blood

A
  1. redblood cells by hemoglobin
  2. o2 dissolves into blood cells
26
Q

in order, which three ways is carbon dioxide carried in the blood

A
  1. bicarbonate ion
  2. abt 20% is caarried by carboxy heamogloben
  3. CO2 dissolves into the bloodstream
