c. cricoid cartilage
d. corniculate cartilage
a. thyroid cartilage
What muscle abducts the vocal cords?
posterior cricoarytenoid
Extension of the left superior lobe of the lung. Is homologous to the middle lobe on the right but is not separated.
Lingula of the lung
The Upper respiratory tract is made up of?
Nose, Nasal cavities, sinuses, pharynx, & larynx
the upper respiratory tract ends where?
At the vocal folds
Lower respiratory tract is made up of?
Larynx (below vocal folds)
Trachea
Bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveoli
The trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli make up what structure?
The Respiratory/ Tracheobronchial tree
Connects the root of the nose to the apex
Dorsum Nasi
Attaches nose to the forehead
Root
The nasal cavity extends from where to where?
External nares to Choanea
The posterior nasal aperture, separated by the vomer. It is the opening between the nasal cavity and the nasopharynx. It is not a structure but a space
Choanea
Dilation just inside the nostril. contains sweat, sebaceous glands and hairs
Nasal Vestibule
A vascular network formed by five arteries that supply oxygenated blood to the nasal septum, which refers to the wall separating the right and left sides of the nose
kiesselbach’s plexus
Marks the transition of epithelial types (keratizized to non-keratinized mucosa) in the nasal fossae
Limen Nasi
Ethmoid air cells, aka ethmoid sinus, is marked by this point midway between the anterior end of middle concha & dorsum of nose
Agger Nasi
What are the functions of the Conchae?
- Help air circulate
- Filter heavy particulates
- Brings more air in contact with mucosa
- moisturizes the air, helps dissolve O2 to cross respiratory membrane
How many conchae are there
usually 3, sometimes 4 (supreme conchae in 60% of people)
What nerve is the only one exposed to the external environment and can readily regenerate?
Olfactory nerve
cartilaginous ending to the eustachian tube?
Torus Tubarius
What portion of the lateral nasal wall receives the maxillary sinus, ethmoid air cells, passage of the front sinus, & the frontal nasal wall?
Middle meatus
Receives ostium of nasolacrimal duct and is the reason your nose runs when you cry
inferior meatus
What drains the frontal sinus and is located in the middle nasal concha?
Ostium of frontonasal duct
What are the 4 paired, paranasal sinuses?
Frontal, Ethmoid, Sphenoid, Maxillary
What nerves contribute to the dual innervation of the paranasal sinuses?
CN 7- Motor
CN 5- Sensory
Become adenoids when they hypertrophy
Pharyngeal tonsils
