Q

Why is gas exchange so efficient?

A
Lipid soluble
Exchange surface area is large
Diffusion distance is short 
Pressure gradient is huge 
Perfusion and ventilation are equal

Q

What makes up the upper respiratory tract?

A

Nares, vestibules, nasal conchae, pharynx, larynx

16
Q

What are the three regions of the pharynx?

A

Nasopharyx - nasal cavity including estancias tube to end of uvula,pseudostratified columnar epitheal tissue
Oropharynx- mouth cavity to epiglottis, stratified squamous
Laryngopharynx- below epiglottis to esophagus, stratified squamous

17
Q

Which type of bronchi have c shaped hyaline cartilages.

A

Main or primary bronchis

18
Q

What is the function of squamous alveolar cells?

A

95% do the alveolar cells. Function for rapid gas diffusion

19
Q

What is the function of great alveolar cells?

A

Secrete pulmonary surfactant to keep alveoli from collapsing and sticking together
Also repair type one squamous alveoli

20
Q

What dose alveolar macrophages do?

A

Phagocytize dust particles

21
Q

What structures are invoked in phonation (making sound)

A

Epiglottis, thyroid cartilage, cricoid cartilage, arytenoid cartilage, cornicate cartilage, cuneiform cartilages

22
Q

Which bronchiole is the one where the alveoli are attached to?

A

Respiratory bronchioles

23
Q

What is pulmonary ventilation?

A

Cycle of inspiration and expiration

24
Q

What is a respiratory cycle ?

A

One complete cycle of inhalation and exhalation

25
Q

What muscles are involved in inspiration?

A

Sternocleidomastoid, pectorals major and minor serrated anterior scalenes

26
Q

What muscles are involved in expiration?

A

Rectus abdominous, internal intercostals lumbar and pelvic muscles

27
Q

What is Valsalva maneuver?

A

Deep breath and holding it to excrete abdominal contents. Vomit child birth bowl movement urination

28
Q

What controls auto rhythmic breathing?

A

Medulla oblongata and pons

29
Q

What controls voluntary breathing

A

Motor cortex

30
Q

What are central chemoreceptors

A

Brain stem neurons that respond to CSF pH which reflects co2 concentration in the blood

31
Q

What are peripheral chemoreceptors

A

The carotid and aortic bodies in arteries above heart respond to o2 and co2 concentrations and pH of the blood

32
Q

What are stretch receptors?

A

Detect the Smooth muscle in the respiratory tract keeps lungs from over inflating

33
Q

What are irritant receptors?

A

Nerve endings in epithelial cells that detect irritants.

Smoke dust pollen chemical fumes ect

Trigger the reflex of bronchoconstriction shallow breathing and apnea (holding breath) and coughing

34
Q

What things contribute to resistance of air flow?

A

Diameter of bronchiole ease of expansion of lungs and surface tension of alveoli and bronchioles

35
Q

How much oxygen is unloaded into the tissues?

A

About 25%

36
Q

What is it called when co2 binds with hemoglobin to be transported ?

A

Carbaminohemoglobin

37
Q

What are the four factors that contribute to oxygen unloading

A

Lower PO2
Higher temp
Lower pH in blood from Higher co2 concentration
Bpg produced and replaces o2 on hemoglobin
