16
Q

These are red blood cells-RBC’s (“erythro” means “red”; “cyte” means “cell”)

A

Erythrocytes

17
Q

______ uses iron (Fe) to hold oxygen. (“heme” means “iron”)

Each RBC can hold 1 billion oxygen molecules.

A

Hemoglobin

18
Q

These are white blood cells – WBC’s (“leuko” means “white”)

They protect our bodies against invading organisms or materials.

A

Leukocytes

19
Q

These are pieces of RBC’s used for making clots.

20
Q

These are for gas exchange with the environment.

A

Respiratory Systems

21
Q

(Oxygen in and Carbon dioxide out.)

Oxygen is need for cellular respiration; Carbon dioxide is the waste product of cellular respiration.

A

Gas Exchange

22
Q

This term refers to where the oxygen molecules are located. It is either water or air.

A

Respiratory Medium

23
Q

This term refers to where the gas exchange occurs.

A

Respiratory Surface

24
Q

Diffusion must occur across a ______ surface. Gases do not diffuse across dry surfaces.

25
A large surface area is needed to get large amounts of gas exchange to occur. ______ in the surface increases surface area within a small space.
Folds
26
Gills, Lungs, Tracheal tubes, Skin, membranes are all ________ surfaces.
respiratory
27
Works with the circulatory system ( That is why they are always located together.)
Respiratory system
28
Mammalian Respiratory system is located in the ________ Cavity (Chest)
Thoracic
29
These cavities warm, moisten, and clean the air using mucous and hairs.
Nostrils and Naval Cavity
30
This is the back of mouth
Pharynx
31
This is the top of trachea
Larynx
32
This muscular flap covers the trachea by bending over the opening.
Epiglottis
33
These vibrate to make sounds. (You can only talk while | exhaling because the moving air is causing the vibration by “catching” the wind, much like a parachute catches air.)
True and False Vocal Cords
34
A.K.A. windpipe) It is protected by C- shaped cartilage rods on the front side.
Trachea
35
(There is one for each lung.) Cartilage keeps them open for air to travel through.
Bronchi
36
These carry air into each lobe of each lung.
Bronchioles
37
This is an inflammation of the air ways.
Bronchitis
38
This condition is having trouble breathing due to airways swelling shut.
Asthma
39
means “air sacs” This is the site of gas exchange by diffusion. (If it is a wet surface.) They are only one cell layer thick which allows for rapid diffusion of gases. They are surrounded by capillary beds. (This makes it 2 cell layers thick. It leads to rapid diffusion in and out.) WBCs that keep these areas clean. (Smoking? Kills the WBCs.)
Alveoli
