Chapter 11 Part 2 Flashcards
Water ventil: Dual pump: animal ex. is
bony fish
Air ventil: Buccal pump: Animal ex. is
air breathing fishes, amph.
two stoke, four stroke (expired air, then fresh air)
Respr. Organs: Gas Bladders- are
Swim bladders and lungs
Swim bladders- used for buoyancy, sometimes used in
respiration
(4) Lungs are
Glottis, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles
Air Ventil: Aspiration pump. Animal ex.-
Amniotes
Aspiration Pump: air is sucked in by low press. created around lungs by…
rib cage or diaphragm; bidirectional
Differences in Lung structures (three)-
Faviform, Alveolar, Parabronchi
Faviform- internal subdivisions that open into
common central chamber
Faviform-Less SA and elasticity, and in low
metabolism organisms (amph./rept.)
Alveolar-dividing. “tree” ends in
blind ended compartments
Alveolar: more SA and elasticity, and support
higher metabolism organisms (mamm.)
Parabronchi: passages branch into many
one way passageways with air capillaries
Parabronchi support high
metabolism orgm. (birds); oxyg. extraction at high altitudes
Mammals: aspr. pump via diaphragm-acts directly on
pleural cavities. Alveolar area is extensive
