Assessment Circulation 1 Flashcards
During inhalation, the diaphragm contracts up with to create a positive pressure in the chest which allows the body to inhale oxygen true or false?
FALSE
The diaphragm pulls DOWN - PULLS lungs with them creating MORE SPACE in LUNGS to inhale more air.
The ribs (intercostal muscles between) contract to lift rib-cage/thoracic cage to create more space, for more air.
The muscles for breathing are?
- Diaphragm
- Intercostal (muscles between rib-cage/throacic-cage)
- Abdominal muscles
When you inhale (breathe in), air enters your lungs and oxygen from the air moves from your lungs to your blood, true or false?
TRUE
Alveoli cells are clusters of tissue in the lungs, true or false?
TRUE
When we breath in the lungs expend, the oxygen diffuses through the alvioli membranes and diffuses into the blood stream, true or false?
TRUE
The exhalation removes CO2 from our body? True or False?
TRUE
The Physiology of respiration is Automatic - AND we do not have the power to change it - True or False?
FALSE
Pranayama - controlled, mindful breathing has the power to make changes to the physiology (way a BODY PART FUNCTIONS)
Asana - muscle contraction and release has the power to make changed to the physiology (way a BODY PART FUNCTIONS)
PHYSIOLOGY -
The way in which a:
- Body part functions
- Living organism functions.
Example:
The functionality of your Psoas can affect the function of the diaphragm of your breath (YT Vid From SM W5)
On the inhalation the intercostal muscles contract and lift the lungs creating space and the lungs cavity for fresh oxygen to move in. True or False?
TRUE
The diaphragm flattens and contracts on exhalation. True or False?
FALSE
When the diaphragm FLATTENS it RELAXES like when an accordion collapses/soft no air/no tension.
When a accordion expands it is pulling apart - contracting - like diaphragm pulls apart - contracting to drag the lungs down with it.
