Q

four parts of respiration

A
  • pulmonary respiration
  • external respiration
  • respiratory gas transport
  • internal respiration
21
Q

pulmonary ventiation

A

breathing; air moves into/out of lungs

22
Q

external respiration

A

gas exchange between pulmonary blood and alveoli; gas exchange being made b/t blood and body exterior

23
Q

respiratory gas transport

A

O2 and CO2 transported to and from the lungs and tissue cells, via bloodstream

24
Q

internal respiration

A

gas exchange at capillaries between blood and tissue cells

25
Q

cellular respiration

A

metabolic processes that produce ATP

26
Q

nose

A

main air passage

27
Q

pharynx

A

throat

28

A

branch off into smaller parts going into each lung

31

A

right-3 lobes, left-2 lobes;
apex- near clavicle;
