Anatomy Flashcards
Cilia terminate in what part of the airway
Respiratory bronchioles
Type of epithelium in respiratory bronchioles
Simple cuboidal and squamous epithelium
Part of airway that contains goblet cells
Trachea and bronchi
Type of epithelium in terminal bronchioles
Simple cuboidal epithelium
Type of epithelium in bronchioles
Simple ciliated columnar epithelium
Type of epithelium in trachea and bronchi
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
Part of airway that contains cartilage
Trachea and bronchi
Function of conducting zone
Warm, humidify and filter air
Path air takes in conducting zone
Nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, terminal bronchioles
Smallest airway in conducting zone
Terminal bronchioles
Respiratory zone that is part of the anatomic dead space
Conducting zone
Airways with least airway resistance
Terminal bronchioles
Function of cilia
Move mucus to epiglottis for swallowing
Homolog of right middle lobe
