Ch 24 Lec 1 - Respiratory System Flashcards
nose, nasal cavity, sinuses and pharynx make up this respiratory system
upper
two parts of respiratory system
upper, lower
larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli make up the blank
lower respiratory system
gas exchange surface
alveoli
lung is an extensive area for blank
gas exchange
respiratory produces blank
vocalization
respiratory system also helps with blank and blank
protection, regulation
increase the blank of the membrane to increase efficiency of membrane
surface area
decrease the blank of the membrane to increase efficiency of gas exchange
thickness
highly blank the respiratory membrane to maximize the concentration gradient to increase gas exchange efficiency
vascularize
gases exchange better with blank surfaces
moisture
two types of cartilage in nose
lateral nasal, major/minor alar
external nares are aka blank
nostrils
the nose encloses the nasal blank
vestibule
nasal vestibule is protected by blank and open into blank
hairs, nasal cavity
inside of nose is the blank
nasal vestibule
nasal vestibule is divided by blank
nasal septum
nasal cavity starts at nasal blank and ends at blank
vestibule, internal nares
nasal cavity is divided into two by the blank
nasal septum
nasal cavity is separated from oral cavity by blank and blank
hard palate, soft palate
hard palate is made of blank and blank
palatine, maxilla
nasal cavity has a blank membrane lining
mucus
superior region of the nasal cavity with areas of olfactory receptors
olfactory region
part of nasal cavity with three projections of bone on each side
conchae
