Q

Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures

A

 total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures exerted independently by each gas in the mixture
 the partial pressure of each gas is directly proportional to its percentage in the mixture

Q

Henry’s Law

A

-when a mixture of gases is in contact with a liquid, each gas will dissolve in the liquid in proportion to its partial pressure
-the amount of gas that will dissolve in a liquid also depends upon its solubility

31
Q

Hb is a

A

vasoconstricter and NO scavenger

32
Q

Deoxygenated Hb picks up

A

CO2 and NO and carries them to lungs for offloading

33
Q

70% of CO2 is transported in the blood as

A

Bicarbonate (HCO3-)

34
Q

reversibly catalyzes the conversion of carbon dioxide and water to carbonic acid in RBCs.

A

Carbonic anhydrase

35
Q
A
36
Q

at the tissues

to counterbalance the outrush of negative bicarbonate ions from the RBCs, chloride ions [Cl–] move from the plasma into the erythrocytes

A

Chloride shift

37
Q

at the lungs

Chloride shift is reversed

A

bicarboniate binds with hydrogen to make carbonic acid, thats split by carbonic anhydrase into CO2 and water, and COs diffuses from blood into alveoli and exhaled.

38
Q

the lower the PO2 and hemoglobin saturation with oxygen, the more carbon dioxide can be carried in the blood

A

Haldane effect

39
Q

As more CO2 enter BL, more O2 dissociates from Hb

A

Bohr effect

40
Q

The more O2 dissassociates from HB

A

more CO2 combines with Hb, more bicarbonate ions formed

41
Q

relationship b/t tissue and pulmonary activity

A

reversed

42
Q

Pacesetting respiratory center

A

DRG (dorsal respiratory group)

43
Q

Continuously inhibits the inspiration center

A

pontine respiratory group

44
Q

irritants promote reflexive ______ of air passages

A

constriction

45
Q

stretch receptors in the lungs are stimulated by lung
inflation [prevent over-inflation]

A

inflation reflex [Hering-Breuer]

46
Q

example: breath holding that occurs in anger

A

hypothalamic controls act through the limbic system to modify rate and depth of respiration

47
Q

examples: voluntary breath holding, taking a deep breath

A

cortical controls are direct signals from the cerebral motor cortex that bypass medullary controls

Q

chemoreceptors become unresponsive to PCO2 chemical stimuli

55
Q

even if carbon dioxide and oxygen levels are normal

A

changes in arterial pH can modify respiratory rate

56
Q

Nerve involved in peripheral chemoreception

A

CN IX, pharyngeal branch of glossopharyngeal nerve

57
Q

During vigorous excercise, what changes

A

breathing becomes deeper and more vigorous, but RATE doesnt change as much as you might think

58

chronic bronchitis, decrease in O2, increase in CO2

62
Q

chronic bronchitis caused by

A

chronic irritation of inhaled substances and microbial infections

63
Q

Pink Puffer

A

emphysema

64
Q

loss of elasticity of the lung tissue; destruction of structures supporting the alveoli; and destruction of capillaries feeding the alveoli

A

pink puffers

66
Q

characterized by dyspnea, wheezing, and chest tightness  active inflammation of the airways precedes bronchospasms
[bronchoconstriction]

A

Asthma

67
Q

episodic reversible bronchoconstriction

A

bronchial asthma

68

infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis

A

tuberculosis

69

70
Q

Tx for TB

A

6-12 months of antibiotics

71
Q

historical names of TB

A

white plague, consumption

72
Q

What percent ofallpatientswithlungcancerweresmokers

A

90%

73
Q

Lung cancer accounts for how many of cancer deaths in US

A

1/3

74
Q

[20-40% of cases] arises in bronchial epithelium

A

squamous cell carcinoma

75
Q

[25-35% of cases] originates in peripheral lung area

A

adenocarcinoma

76
Q

[20-25% of cases] contains lymphocyte-like cells that originate in the primary bronchi and subsequently metastasize

A

small cell carcinoma
