21
Q

ribs

A

there are twelve, with the lowest two attached by cartilage to the sternum

22
Q

head of the rib

A

provides articulating surfaces with the spinal column

23
Q

angle of the rib

A

represents the point at which the rib begins the significant curve in its course forward

24
Q

shaft of rib

A

the long, relatively straight component of a rib, between he neck and the angle of the rib

25
true rib
consisting of those ribs making direct attachment with the sternum (ribs 1-7)
26
false rib
consisting of those ribs making indirect attachment with the sternum (8-10)
27
floating rib
ribs that do not articulate with the sternum (11 and 12)
28
chondral
cartilaginous
29
parts of the sternum
manubrium sterni, corpus (body) and xiphoid process
30
manubrium sterni
handle of sternum
31
xiphoid process
sword, the part at the bottom of the sternum that sticks out (used for cpr)
32
pectoral girdle
scapula and clavicle "A-frame" of support to distribute force through relatively solid articulation at the scapula through the muscular attachment in the form of the massive muscles of the thorax and back
33
clavicle
collarbone attached to superior sternum (only) laterally to the scapula provides support for the shoulder
34
scapula
shoulder blade attaches to the clavicle muscles attached facilitate flexibility in movement
35
pelvic girdle
ilium, ischium, iliac crest, pubic bone, pubic symphasis
36
ilium
one of the bones of the pelvic girdle large, wing-like bone bulk of support for the abdominal musculature and the prominent hip bone
37
pubic symphysis
point of union between the two pubic bones
38
lung tissue
elastic, spongy tissue for flexibility composite of blood, arterial and venous network, connective tissue, the respiratory pathway, and tissue specialized for gas exchange
39
trachea tissue
``` flexible tube 11 cm in length 16 to 20 hyaline cartilage rings they have a mucous membrane lining gap between the rings is spanned by smooth muscle ```
40
esophagus tissue
retains its collapsed condition except when occupied with a bolus of food being propelled by gravity and peristaltic contractions to the waiting stomach
41
alveoli function
where gas exchange happens
42
mediastinum
place in between the lungs where the heart is encased
43
types of pleurae
visceral, parietal, mediastinal, diaphragmatic, costal, apical
44
visceral pleurae
pleural lining encasing the lungs
45
parietal pleurae
pleural lining of the thoracic cavity
46
mediastinal pleurae
parietal pleural lining covering the mediastinum
47
diaphragmatic pleurae
parietal pleural lining covering the diaphragm
48
costal pleurae
cover the inner surface of the rib cage
49
apical pleurae
parietal pleural linings covering the lung superior aspect
50
quiet inspiration
inspiration that involves minimal muscular activity, primarily that of the diaphragm
51
forced inspiration
inspiration that involves both diaphragm and accessory muscles of inspiration
