nasal cavity

A

behind the nose and filters, warms up, and moistens the air

31

two main bronchi which lead to lungs and branches off to bronchioles

36
Q

bronchioles

A

branches that stem from bronchi

37
Q

alveoli

A

where gas exchange occurs, microscopic capillaries that bring carbon dioxide from heart and deliver oxygen back to the heart

38
Q

lungs

A

left lung has two lobes and right lung has 3 lobes

39

muscle located underneath the lungs contracts and relaxes

40
Q

intercostal muscles

A

moves ribs during respiration

41
Q

pleural membrane

A

covers the lungs and line the chest cavity

42
Q

upper respiratory

A

nose, nasal cavity, mouth, pharynx, larynx, and epiglottis

43
Q

lower respiratory

trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, lungs, alveoli, intercostal muscles, diaphragm, and ribs

Q

mouth

A

another place for air to be taken in

45
Q

vocal cords

two flaps of skin controlled by muscles that vibrate

46
Q

thoracic cavity
