lecture 10 olympics Flashcards
bronchiolar constriction is most likely to cause
wheezing
major regulator of respiratory activity
PCO2
the trachea
c-shaped cartilage rings
oxygen diffuses from alveoli into the
pulmonary capillaries
antipyretic drug
lowers a fever
HIV produces impairment of immune system by attacking what cells
Helper T cells
what controls repiration
medulla oblongata
do infectious rhinitis and allergic rhinitis have the same cause
false
what contributes to the wheezing of asthma
constriction of the bronchiolar smooth muscle
dyspnea means
difficulty breathing
trachea is part of the upper respiratory tract
false
frontal, maxillary, sphenoidal, and ethmoidal
are paranasal sinuses
redness and heat associated with inflammation
due to the release of histamine from injured tissue
severe anaphylactic reaction cause death by
respiratory obstruction
surfactants
prevents collapse of the alveoli
the epiglottis, glottis, and vocal cords
structures of the larynx
what prevents the entrance of food and water into the respiratory passages
epiglottis
what is an allergen
antigen
hyperventilation is most apt to induce
alkalosis
hyperventilation can cause
hypoxemia and acidosis
since antibodies are carried by blood what type of immunity is this called
humoral immunity
name of a severe hypersensitivity reaction
anaphylaxis
a tracheostomy is performed in order to
to ensure an open airway
effect of a massive release of histamine
wheezing and hypotension
hypoventilation decreases the respiration excretion
carbon dioxide
another name for sore throat
pharyngitis
hypoventilation is most apt to
induce acidosis
inflammation is
characterized by redness, heat, swelling, and pain
function of macrophages
phagocytosis and antigen presentation
atelectasis
decreases the surface area
deficiency of surfactants in the neonate
makes it difficult to expand the lungs
collection of mucus in the lower airways is most likely to cause
atelectasis
where is blood oxygenated
across the alveolus/ pulmonary capillary membrane
what cells engulf the pathogen to achieve “antigen presentation”
macrophages
what is classified as a killer, helper, suppressor, and memory
T cells
respiratory passages are lined with
mucous membrane
dome-shaped muscle that is the chief muscle of inhalation
diaphram
ventilation
has two phases : inhalation and exhalation
structure with the thinnest wall
alveoli
