What is typically more posteroinferior and is the thicker-walled structure and also contains cartilage in the wall?

What is hanging pleura from the root of the lung?

A

1) Pulmonary A.
2) Pulmonary V.

17
Q

What is adherent to the thoracic wall, the mediastinum and the diaphragm?

What is adherent to the lungs and extends into the fissures?

A

1) Parietal pleura
2) Visceral pleura

18
Q

What occurs when enough air enters the pleural cavity to break the surface tension between the two layers of pleura?

A

Pulmonary collapse

19
Q

Entry of air into the pleural cavity from a penetrating wound to the thoracic wall which results in the collapse of the lungs is known as?

Accumulation of excess fluid in the pleural cavity usually the result of fluid escaping into the pleural cavity is known as?

Accumulation of blood in the pleural cavity, usually the result of laceration of an intercostal vessel or internal thoracic vessel rather than laceration of the lung is known as?

A

1) Pneumothorax
2) Hydrothorax

7) Alveolar ducts

21
Q

Bronchial asthma is a widespread narrowing of the airways produced by?

A

Contraction of smooth muscle

23
Q

What carries oxygenated blood under high pressure to lungs to provide nourishment?

What carries deoxygenated blood under low pressure for gas exchange?

A

1) Bronchial arteries
2) Pulmonary arteries

24
Q

The groove for subclavian artery is found where?

A
