PhysioX exercise 7 activity 3

What is surface tension? What does it resist and do? What decreases surface tension?

Intrapleural pressure is less than intrapulmonary pressure between breaths. What 2 forces cause the negative pressure condition?

This can lead to lung collapse called ___.

What did the addition of surfactants do? Which ___ air flow. What is the mechanism?

What happened to air flow when you opened the valve (pneumothorax)? What effect on the collapsed lung in the left side of the glass bell jar did you observe when you closed the valve?

A
  • surface tension = liquid molecules more attracted to each other than to gas molecules
  • resists increase in SA so decreases spaces such as in the alveoli
  • surfactant decreases tension by reducing attraction of water molec to each other
  • tendency of lung to recoil because of its elasticity and surface tension
  • tendency of compressed chest wall to recoil and expand outward
  • pneumothorax
