Q

function of cillia

A

hair like projections move bacteria and dust particles getting trapped on them and the mucus and move to back of throat to stop lungs getting blocked

Q

what is wrapped around alveolie

A

cappilaries

19
Q

true or false: oxygen diffuses across single cell wall of alveolie into blood and c02 difuses other way

A

true

20
Q

what takes blood to heart

A

plumonary artery, one cell thick

21
Q

what makes alveolie efficient surface for gas exchange

A

on cell thick and large surface area

22
Q

in order to make air move in and out of lungs..

A

change volume of thorax

23
Q

when breathing in:

  1. external intercostal -
  2. diaphragm muscles -
  3. volume of thorax -
  4. pressure in lungs -
A
  1. contract, pulling ribcage upwards and out
  2. ” pulling diaphragm down
  3. increases volume
  4. decreases
24
Q

when breathing out:

  1. external intercostal -
  2. diaphragm muscles -
  3. volume of thorax -
  4. pressure in lungs -
A
  1. relax
  2. relax
  3. decreases volume
  4. increases
25
Q

when does body respire anaerobically

A

when vigerous excericse takes place

26
Q

what does your body do to get oxygen to eg. legs quickly

A

deep breathes and faster to get max oxygen into blood and to area in need eg. legs

27
Q

why does heart rate stay high after exercise stops?

A

body has to combine oxygen with remaining lactic acid to remove/ break it down. once all LA is gone heart rate returns to normal.

28
Q

what controls breathing rate

A

your brain

29
Q

what does your brain constantly moniter

A

pH levels in blood

30
Q

what does high levels of oxygen/lactic acid do to blood pH

A

decreases it

31
Q

what happens when blood PH falls

A

brain sends nerve impluses to diaphragm and intercostal muscles stimulating them to contract harder and faster - faster deaper breths

32
Q

aerobic respiration

A

with oxygen, creating energy from glucose and oxygen

33
Q

anaerobic respiration

A

without oxygen, creating less engery from glucose

34
Q

to release energy from glucose

A

breakdown via chem reactions

35
Q

true of false: anaerobic respiration is more efficient than aerobic

A

false because it doesnt release as much energy from the gluocse molecules.

36
Q

chem equation for aerobic respiration:

A

C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O

37
Q

chem equation for anaerobic respiration:

A

C6H12O6 = 2C2H5OH + 2CO2

38
Q

is carbon dioxide produced when anaerobic respiration takes place

A

yes

39
Q

what do plants and yeast make

A

CO2

40
Q

glucose =

A

lactic acid + CO2

41
Q

CO2 is waste product, removed?

A

via gas exchange

42
Q

percentage of oxygen in inspired air:

A

21%

43
Q

percentage of oxygen in expired air:

A

16%
