Chapter 6: Human Body Flashcards
Skull
-28 bones
3 groups:
Cranium- 8 bones
Facial- 14 bones
Ear- 3 bones
Spinal Column
-33 vertebrae
Cervical- 7
Thoracic- 12
Lumbar- 5
Sacral- 5 fused
Coccyx- 4 fused
Greater vs Lesser Trochanter
Lesser- Medial side of femur
Greater- Lateral of femur
Upper Airway
-Nasopharynx
-Nassal air passageway
-Pharynx
-Oropharynx
-Mouth
-Epiglottis
-Larynopharynx
-Larynx (voice box)
Lower Airway
-Trachea
-Alveoli
-Bronchioles
-Main bronchi
Inhilation
-Diaphram and intercostals contract
-Diaphram flattens and moves down
-Intercostals move ribs up and out
-As volume of the cavity increase, pressure falls and air moves in (negative pressure breathing)
Exhilation
-Diaphram and intercostals relax
-Volume decreases and pressure increases, air moves out of lungs
Ventillation
Moving air in and out
Respiration
Internal: Tissue level
External: Lungs and atmposhere
Hypoxic Drive
O2 levels fall, O2 sensors in brain, aorta, carotid send out signals that O2 is needed
Dead Space
Areas in respiratory system that do not have any alveoli: mouth, trachea, bronchi
Tunica Media
Middle layer of artery that can contract and dilate
Central and Peripheral Pulses
Central:
-Carotid
-Femoral
Peripheral:
-Radial
-Brachial
-Posterior tibia
-Dordalis pedis
SVR
Systemic vascular resistance
-SVR= (MAP-CVP) / CO x 80
-Total peripheral resistance (TPR)
-Resistance of bloof flow in all vessels except pulmonary
MAP
Mean arteriole pressure
-Avg arteriole pressure in systole and diastole
-MAP= SBP + 2 (DBP)
