Q

Anatomy

A

trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli:
all have smooth muscle and cilia (at least some) except alveoli
trachea and bronchi have cartilage
no cartilage in resp bronchioles and alveoli

Q

Smooth m of bronchi and bronchioles is controlled by

A

ANS:
SNS - Beta2 receptor (airway dilation) (Albuterol is an agonist)
PNS - Muscarinic receptor (constriction)

Q

What receives whole cardiac output?

A

Pulmonary Artery (From RV)

16
Q

Why need to keep pressure in capillaries as low as possible?

A

to prevent fluid from moving into alveolar sack.

almost nothing to prevent fluid from moving from lumen of capillary into alveolar sack -> edema

17
Q

When hyperventilate:

A

Lower CO2 and make less acidic

18
Q

When hypoventilate

A

Raise CO2 (lower O2) and increase acid

19
Q

where are blood becarbonate and CO2 levels regulated?

A

bicarb - kidney

CO2 - lungs

20
Q

Non resp fx of lungs

A

Lungs receive ALL of CO
angiotensin converting enzyme AngI to Ang II
enzymes that inactivate bradykinin and some prostaglandins
serotonin removed
IgA immunoglobulins released

21
Q

Respiratory quotient RQ or RER (resp exchange ratio)

A

ratio of VCO2 to VO2
fats: 0.7
carbs: 1.0
mixed or protein: 0.8 (assume this one if value not given)

22
Q

VO2

A

Oxy consumption

23
Q

VCO2

A

CO2 production
