Exam 4 Flashcards
intercostal muscles
external (inspiration)
internal (expiration)
innermost (weak expiration)
scalene contribution to respiration
inspiration
abdominal muscles contribution to respiration
expire
relation of phrenic nerve to root of the lung:
phrenic nerve goes anterior to the root of the lung
Are there more white or gray communicans?
gray
how many white communicans?
28
posterior intercostal veins drain into the__
azygos system
azygos vein drains into:
superior vena cava
location of trachea
- slightly right of midline
- anterior to esophagus
- posterior to great vessels
carina
- marks the bifurcation of trachea into R/L bronchus
- happens at T4-5
area of lung that can hurt while running
- costodiaphragmatic recess
- irritating intercostal nerves
number of lobes of R lung
3
number of lobes of L lung
2 (heart takes up space)
Pulmonary circulation
: portion of the cardiovascular system that carries de-oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs, then delivers oxygenated blood back to the heart
pulmonary arteries deliver:
de-oxygenated blood from right ventricle to root of lung
pulmonary veins deliver
oxygenated blood from the lungs to left atrium
lower motor neurons
cause movement
roots give rise to:
2 rami (dorsal and ventral)
the synapse of somatic afferent is found:
dorsal horn
synapse of somatic efferent is found:
in the periphery
cell body of the somatic efferent neuron is found:
ventral horn
cell body of the somatic afferent neuron is found:
DRG: dorsal root ganglia
demarcation of the PNS and CNS:
intervertebral foramen
-when typical spinal nerve enters intervertebral foramen it becomes CNS
options for a visceromotor sympathetic neuron synapse:
- synapse at paravertebral ganglia and go to periphery
- synapse above T1 or below L2 on paravertebral ganglia and go to periphery
- pass through paravertebral to synapse at prevertebral ganglia to activate/inhibit internal organ
for sympathetic visceromotor white ramus communicans is:
- input
- preganglionic
for sympathetic viseromotor gray ramus communicans is:
- output
- postganglionic
sympathetic innervation distribution:
thoracolumbar distribution T1-L2
parasympathetic innervation distribution:
craniosacral distribution
cell bodies for parasympathetic division of ANS are found:
in the nuceli of the brain stem (cranial nerves) and spinal cord segments S2-S4
cranial nerves that contain parasympathetic fibers
- CN III oculomotor
- CN VII facial
- CN IX glossopharyngeal
- CN X vagus
parasympathetic ganglia that are associated with the cranial nerves:
- synapse in them (intramural ganglia)
1. Ciliary (CN III)
2. Submandibular (CN VII)
3. Pterygopalatine (CN VII)
4. Otic (CN IX)
parasympathetic fiber lengths
- long preganglionic fibers
- short postganglionic fibers
