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
Q

true rib

A

consisting of those ribs making direct attachment with the sternum (ribs 1-7)

26
Q

false rib

A

consisting of those ribs making indirect attachment with the sternum (8-10)

27
Q

floating rib

A

ribs that do not articulate with the sternum (11 and 12)

28
Q

chondral

A

cartilaginous

29
Q

parts of the sternum

A

manubrium sterni, corpus (body) and xiphoid process

30
Q

manubrium sterni

A

handle of sternum

31
Q

xiphoid process

A

sword, the part at the bottom of the sternum that sticks out (used for cpr)

32
Q

pectoral girdle

A

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
Q

clavicle

A

collarbone
attached to superior sternum (only)
laterally to the scapula
provides support for the shoulder

34
Q

scapula

A

shoulder blade
attaches to the clavicle
muscles attached facilitate flexibility in movement

35
Q

pelvic girdle

A

ilium, ischium, iliac crest, pubic bone, pubic symphasis

36
Q

ilium

A

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
Q

pubic symphysis

A

point of union between the two pubic bones

38
Q

lung tissue

A

elastic, spongy tissue for flexibility
composite of blood, arterial and venous network, connective tissue, the respiratory pathway, and tissue specialized for gas exchange

39
Q

trachea tissue

A
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
Q

esophagus tissue

A

retains its collapsed condition except when occupied with a bolus of food being propelled by gravity and peristaltic contractions to the waiting stomach

41
Q

alveoli function

A

where gas exchange happens

42
Q

mediastinum

A

place in between the lungs where the heart is encased

43
Q

types of pleurae

A

visceral, parietal, mediastinal, diaphragmatic, costal, apical

44
Q

visceral pleurae

A

pleural lining encasing the lungs

45
Q

parietal pleurae

A

pleural lining of the thoracic cavity

46
Q

mediastinal pleurae

A

parietal pleural lining covering the mediastinum

47
Q

diaphragmatic pleurae

A

parietal pleural lining covering the diaphragm

48
Q

costal pleurae

A

cover the inner surface of the rib cage

49
Q

apical pleurae

A

parietal pleural linings covering the lung superior aspect

50
Q

quiet inspiration

A

inspiration that involves minimal muscular activity, primarily that of the diaphragm

51
Q

forced inspiration

A

inspiration that involves both diaphragm and accessory muscles of inspiration
