Breathing And Exchange Of Gases Flashcards
Trachea divides at the mid thoracic cavity at the level of ?
5th thoracic vertebra
The outer pleural membrane is in close contact with the?
→ Thoracic cavity
sponges and Chidarians respire by
→ simple diffusion
Annelids (Earthworms) respire by
→ moist cuticle
Bronchial Respiration means=
→ by gills
cutaneous respiration means =
→ By skin
pulmonary respiration means
→ By lungs
Reptiles, Birds, Mammals respire by ?
Pulmonary respiration
Respiratory Passage track
→ Nostrils → Nasal passage → Nasal chamber → Internal Nostrils → pharynx → Larynx → Trachea → Bronchi → Bronchioles → Alveoli
Nasal chamber has which type of tissue
→ PSCCGE ( Pseudostratified ciliated columnar glandular epithelium
filtration of duct, no midifaction the dry air , warming cold air is the function of ?
→ Nasal chamber
what guards the Internal nostrile
→ Uvula
common path for both food and air.
→ pharynx
which is the sound box
→ Larynx
shorter thinner and high pitched vocal cords all present
in
→ female and children
Alveoli is made up of which kind of tissue
→ simple squaremous epithelium so the diffusion of air can happen easily.
About how many alveoli are present in both lungs
→ about 300 million
which hormone does Alveoli secret and why
→ secretes - “ Lecithin”
which lowers the surface tension of alveolar fluid so that alveoli doesn’t collapse
conducting Part location and 4 Functions
→ Nostails up to terminal bronchioles
→ conduct air to Alveoli
→ sterilization i filtelation of dust
→ warming to body temp
→ Humidification of air
Thoracic cavity positions Dorsal, ventral, lateral, Lower side
→ Dorsal- vertebral column
→ ventral - sternum
→ lateral- Ribs
→ lower side-Diaphram
change in thoracic volume will
thchange in thoracic volume will
→ any change in thoracic valveme will reflect in lungs.
there is no other way to alle the pulmonary volume
Breathing is also called
→ pulmonary ventilation
change in pressure gradient is due to?
→ change in thoracic volume which changes due to muscle movement.
When atmospheric air moves to alveoli
→ Inspiration
when air moves out of the lungs
→ Expiration
Breathing movements is due to the ?
→ muscle movement
the thomacic volume and Intrapulmonary volume increase in atmospheric pressure during
→ Inspiration
the thomacic volume and Intrapulmonary volume decrease in atmospheric pressure during
→ Expiration
What are the two Inspiratory muscles
→ External intercostal muscle, Diaphragm Muscle
What are the two Expiratory muscles
→ Internal intercostal muscle
Intercostal muscles are present between
→ successive Ribs
Inspiration is an active or passive process
→ Active process ( when muscle contracts,ATP energy required)
Expiration is an active or passive process
→ Passive process
What is the role of diaphragm during Breathing
→ By contraction the diaphragm becomes flat so ANTERIO POSTERIOR increase in the thoracic volume.
