Q

Runnin – angiotensin – aldosterone system (RAAS)

A

Renin converts Angeo 10 Synergen into angiotensin one, then angiotensin1 converts, angiotensin, converting enzyme into angt2

Q

What does angiotensin 2 cause:

A

-SNS= vaso constriction of blood vessels (incr pressure)
-Adrenal glands= Aldosterone to retain water (increase pressure)
-Post pituitary gland= ADH to retain water in DCT & CD
* Worsens hypertension*

Q

How many cartilages make a larynx

A

Nine cartilages

32
Q

Where does the nasal pharynx start at?

A

Starts at Choanae and ends at uvula

33
Q

What are the single cartilages of the larynx?

A

-thyroid: V-shaped, forms Addams apple
-Cricoid: O-Shaped, most inferior
-Epiglottis: spoon-shaped, protect airway

34
Q

What are the paired cartilages of the larynx?

A

C-shaped, windpipe
-15 to 20 cartilages

38
Q

What’s the inner lining of the trachea?

A

Ciliated pseudostratified, columnar epithelium with goblet cells

39

Where is the carina located?

A

In between T4 and T5

40
Q

What is the structure before the carina?

A

The trachea

41
Q

What is the structure after the carina?

A

Primary bronchus

42
Q

What comes after the primary bronchus?

A

The secondary bronchi, and the tertiary bronchi

43
Q

What is the pathway from the trachea to the alveoli?

  1. Trachea.
  2. Primary bronchus.
  3. Secondary bronchus.
  4. Tertiary bronchus
  5. Bronchiole.
  6. Terminal bronchioles.
  7. Respiratory bronchioles.
  8. Alveolus
44
Q

Respiratory bronchioles

A

Gas exchange occurs in between whole lungs and tissues
-alveoli and capillaries
-External respiration

45
Q

Terminal bronchioles

A

First segment before respiratory bronchioles

46
Q

Bronchodilation

A

Smooth muscle relaxes to increase airflow

47
Q

Bronchoconstriction

A

Smooth muscle contracts

48
Q

Alveoli

A

Air sacs in the lungs

49
Q

What is a dust cell

A

Third line of defense of immunity

50
Q

What is type I pneumocyte

A

To provide structure support

51
Q

What is type II pneumocyte

A

Produced a substance called surfactant
-Surfactant will reduce surface tension to prevent the Alveoli from collapsing

52
Q

What does alveolar fluid do?

A

keeps alveolar open

53
Q

What is simple diffusion

A

High to low

54
Q

What is pleural cavity?

A

Surrounds each lung, and filled with pleural fluid

61
Q

Boyles law

A
