anatomy Flashcards
what are the components of the upper GI tract
right and left nasal cavities, oral cavity, naso-, oro-, laryngo- pharynx, larynx
what are the components of the lower resp tract
trachea, right and left main bronchi, in the lung: lobar bronchi, segmental bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli
what happens at C6
larynx becomes trachea, pharynx becomes oesophagus
where can the trachea be palpated
jugular notch of the manubrium
where is the isthmus of the thyroid gland
anterior to tracheal cartilages 2-4
where is parietal pleura of the lung found
on the thoracic wall
where is the visceral pleura
on lungs
what is a lung lobe
area of lung each lobar bronchi supplies with air
how many bronchopulmonary segments does each lung have
10
how many ribs does a person have, how many true, false, floating
12 pairs = 24.
true =1- 7, false = 8-10, floating = 11-12
how does the rib articulate with the sternum
costal cartilage
what joins the sternum and ribs
sternocostal joints
what joings the ribs and cartilage from sternum
costochondrial joints
what joins the ribs to the vertebrae
costovertebral joints
how main pairs of intercostal space are there
11
what does each intercostal space carry
neuro-vascular bundle
what nerve supplies the intercostal spaces
anterior ramus
how is the diaphragm arranged
right and left domes
what supplies the diaphragm and where does it leave the spina
combined anterior ramus phrenic - C3,4,5
where does the phrenic nerve descend over
lateral aspects of the heart
where do lateral quadrants of breasts drain
axillary nodes
where do medial quadrants of breast drain
parasternal nodes
branches from which artery and brain supply the breats
subclavian and internal thoracic artery and vein
where is the lung apex
superior to medial clavicle
where is the lung base

CNV X or CNIX
what nerves allow you to sneeze (CNV or CNIX
