Lecture 10: Resp Flashcards
What two muscles control phonation
vocalis m. and extrinsic laryngeal m.
What is the action for the vocalis m.
it exterts tension on vocal cords
What is the action for the extrinsic laryngeal m?
Changes the size and shape of the larynx
What are the 4 layers of the wall of the trachea?
Mucosa, submucosa, cartilagenous layer, adventitia
What structures mark the end of the conducting portion
bronchioles
What is the change in epithelium that marks the posterior part of the vestibule
stratified squamous to pseudostratified epithelium
Describe kartagener syndrome
Autosomal Recessive
Dynein protein defect/deletion
Dysfunctional motility of cilia
What are nasal conchae/turbinate what do they do?
lateral wall folds - create air turbulence and better conditioning of inhaled air

surffactant homeostatis, immune response to fungi, bacteria, viruses
SP-B function
Absoption and spreading of surfactant
SP-C function
maintains thing film layer in aveoli
SP-D
Host defense/ binding microorganisms
What epithelium are large terminal bronchioles lined with?
