Q

Which membrane cover the surface of the lungs

A

The visceral pleura

29
Q

The parietal pleura Lines

A

The thoracic wall

30
Q

The space between the pleura is called โ€ฆ. And filled with โ€ฆโ€ฆ.

A
  • interapleural space

- serous fluid

31
Q

During quite breathing inspiration (breathing in ) is caused by the contraction of โ€ฆโ€ฆ
Which move the ribs โ€ฆโ€ฆ..
And the โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ.contracts and flattens to โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ.

A
  • external intercostal muscles
  • upwards and outwards
  • diaphragm
  • increase the theatric cavity
32
Q

Expiration during quit breathing is

A

Passive

33
Q

During active/forceful expiration the

A

Internal intercostal muscles are engaged

34
Q

Two things are essential for ecient exchange

A

the difusion distance between air and blood must be small, and the surface area over which exchange takes place must be large.

35
Q

The internal surface area of the lungs is about

A

100m2

36
Q

Pulmonary ventilation

A

breathing) describes the bulk movement of air into and out of the lungs. The ventilatory pump comprises the rib cage with its associated muscles, and the diaphragm.

37
Q

The conducting part of the respiratory system is a series of

A

cavities and thick-walled tubes which conduct air between the nose and the deepest recesses of the lungs, and in doing so warm, humidify and clean it. The conducting airways are the nasal cavities, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles.

38
Q

The respiratory part of the system comprises the

A

tiny, thin-walled airways where gases are exchanged between air and blood. The airways are respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts and sacs, and the alveoli themselves.

39
Q

the nasal cavity is a

A

tall, narrow chamber lined with mucous membrane. The wet membrane
humidiies and warms inspired air.

40
Q

Nasal cavity ;

the medial surface is lat, the lateral surface carries

A

three sloping shelves (conchae) which

increase the surface area of the mucous membrane.

41
Q

air-illed (paranasal) sinuses open into the cavity. They

A

lighten the face and add resonance to

the voice.

42
Q

the roof of the cavity carries the

A

olfactory epithelium

43
Q

Turbulence caused by sning carries

air up to the epithelium. Axons of olfactory receptor cells lead towards the

A

brain through

perforations in the overlying bone, the cribriform plate.

44
Q

The pharynx is a

A

vertical passage with three parts, each having an anterior opening.

45
Q

The pharynx is an airway but also a foodway. In terms of its structure it is primarily part of
the

A

gastrointestinal system.

46
Q

CONDUCTING ZONE ends at

A

Terminal bronchioles

47
Q

The windpipe:/trachea

A

-12 cm long and as thick as your thumb.
- incomplete โ€œC-shapedโ€ rings of cartilage
- Free ends of the cartilage are
connected by trachealis muscle (smooth)
-Lined with a ciliated epithelium (pseudostratiied columnar)
-

48
Q

Cilliated transport from the trachea

A

Cilia transport a mucous sheet

upwards to the nasopharynx (the โ€œmucociliary escalatorโ€).

49
Q

Esophagus sits immediately

A

posterior to the trachea, lying in the shallow groove formed by
the trachealis muscle.

50
Q

In the conducting zone

A

There is no gas exchange

51
Q

Respiration is

A

Transfer of gas across a boundary or membrane

52
Q

Functional classification

A

Conducting and respiratory

53
Q

Structural classification

A

Upper - nostril - larynx

and lower - trachea- alveoli

54
Q

How saturated do we want air to be

A

100% saturated with H2O

55
Q

What temperature is air in the larynx

A

35

56
Q

What temperature do we want air to be

A

37

57
Q

All air ways are lined with

A

Liquid of some sort

58
Q

Respiratory epithelium =

A

Pseudostratified columer cilliated epithelium

- has Hal let cells to keep from drying out

59
Q

Seromucus

A

Glands under epi

60
Q

How many cilla per cell

A

100- 300

61
Q

Cillia beat

A

10x a sec
Move in a power stroke not uniform to move things
Moves mucus so we can swallow it :

62
Q

Olfactory bulb

A
  • for smell

- bone that have holes

63
Q

Smoke makes cillia,โ€ฆ.

A

Paralysed

Toxins = more mucus = smokers cough to remove mucus -as cillia cant move it out

64
Q

Sibuese can fill with mucus and

A

Become infected !

65
Q

Olfactory epithelium

A

Roof of cavity

Foe smell

66
Q

What are the 3 parts of the pharynx

A

Nasophaynx
Oropharynx = digestive system
Laryngopharynx

67
Q

The respite ray system only branches โ€ฆ

Now branch =

A

In 2

Genaration

68
Q

Below branches 20-23

A

Infection can cause serous problems
