respiration Flashcards
aerobic respiration and anerobic respiration
CO2 is also known as
fixed gas or chalky acid gas
what is vitiated air?
where both CO2 and O2 is presence but theres removal of respirable air 02
O2 is also known as
respirable air
steps of respiration
1) breathing
2) gasious exchange at lungs level
3)gas transport by blood
4)gasious exchange at tissue level
5)cellular respiration
what is breathing
taking in of O2 from environment and giving out CO2 is called breathing
define inhalation and exhalation
inhalation- the process of taking in air containing more O2
exhalation- the process of taking out the air containng more CO2
how much percent of CO2 do we release
44%
how much CO2 is present while we inhale
0.03%
draw pathway of air with diagram
nostrils, nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus, bronchilous, alveolus
what is the function of epiglottis by the passage of air and food
epiglottis closes the way of lungs when we eat and closes the way of food pipe when we breath
why do we experience choking
when we eat and talk at the same time- sometimes making the epiglottis to open the way to lungs and the food goes inside- we face difficulty in breathing tears cough
name the fluid membrance in lungs
pleura
name the structures helping the lungs to expand and relax
chest wall muscle, diaphran
draw the structure of lungs and label its diagrm
state the importance of diaphram
1)it divides two cavities chest and abdominal cavity
what are the changes taken during inhalation
1)diaphram contacts and becomes flat
2)volume of chest cavity increase
3)internal air decreases
4)chest wall moves up
