14
Q

in this type of lung disease, resistance of flow of air out of the lungs produces a very small FEV1… but a closer to normal FVC

15
Q

in this type of lung disease, reduced compliance of lungs leads leads to not much of a difference between FEV1 and FVC

A

restrictive disease
(lungs have less air because they can’t fully extend)

16
Q

this refers to the volume of the air in airways and lungs that doesn’t participate in gas exchange

A

dead space

17
Q

this type of dead space is where there is no alveoli present and its function is to carry air to the functional areas of the lungs

A

anatomic dead space

18
Q

this type of dead space refers to parts of the lung that do not participate in gas exchange

A

physiologic

19
Q

this law states that the pressure of gas varies inversely with its volume

A

Boyle’s Law

20
Q

intrapleural pressure is always _______ than alveolar pressure

A

less

21
Q

what are the two main factors of lung compliance?

A

stretchability of lung tissues
surface tension

22
Q

this lung disease has increased compliance

A

emphysema

23
Q

this lung disease has decreased compliance

A

fibrosis

24
Q

this substances decreases surface tension and cohesive forces of water and causes alveoli to assume the smallest diameter possible

A

surfactant

25
Q

this law is simple diffusion: high concentration to low concentration

A

Fick’s law

26
Q

how many chains does Hb have?

A

2 alpha and 2 beta

27
Q

how many oxygen molecules can one Hb carry?

A

4- 4 Fe for each chain can carry one O2 molecule each

28
Q

fetal Hb chains include…

A

2 alpha chains
2 gamma chains

29
Q

this molecule reduces Hb binding affinity for O2 by stabilizing deoxygenated Hb

A

DPG

30
Q

list the blood buffer equation

A

CO2 + H2O <–> H2CO3 <–> H+ + HCO3-

31
Q

do metabolic processes move the blood buffer equation to the right (H+) or left?

A

right- lower pH

32
Q

does a decreased pH lead to a higher or lower RR?

A

higher RR
