Q
  • Transports air to the lungs
  • Warms, humidifies, filters, and cleans the air
  • Mucus traps small particles, and cilia move it away from the lungs. (mucociliary escalator)
  • Voice production in the larynx as air passes over the vocal folds

Q

air moves from — to —- pressure

A

high to low

17
Q

pressure of air outside the body

A

atmospheric pressure

18
Q

pressure in the lungs

A

intrapulmonary pressure

19
Q

pressure within the intracellular space, contains a thin layer of fluid to serve as a lubricant

A

intrapleural pressure

20
Q

Intrapulmonary pressure is lower than atmospheric pressure.

A

inspiration

21
Q

Intrapulmonary pressure is greater than atmospheric pressure.

A

expiration

22
Q

Lower than intrapulmonary and atmospheric pressure in both inspiration and expiration

A

intrapleural pressure

23
Q

Keeps the lungs against the thoracic wall and allows the lungs to expand during inspiration

A

transpulmonary pressure

24
Q

States that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume

A

boyles law

25
the diaphragm ----- during inspiration – lowers, making the thoracic cavity larger
contracts
26
the diaphragm ---- in expiration – raises, making the thoracic cavity smaller
relaxes
27
raises the rib cage during inspiration
external intercostal muscles
28
lowers the rib cage during forced expiration
internal intercostal muscles
29
works with the external intercostals
parasternal intercostals muscles
30
used for forced inspiration
scalenes, pectoralis minor, and SCM
31
used for forced expiration
abdominal muscles
32
The total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures of each gas in it.
Daltons law
33
the amount of gas that can dissolve in liquid depends on solubilty, temperature, and partial pressure
henry's law
