RESPIRATORY 13 Flashcards
what type of respiration happens in the lungs?
external respiration
what type of respiration happens in the tissue?
Internal respiration
it is the Exchange of gases between body cells and the environment
respiration
it is the act or process of breathing?
respiration
other term for respiration?
breathing or pulmonary ventilation
four major components of respiration?
pulmonary ventilation, diffusion, transport, regulation of ventilation
what is the average respiratory rate or cycle of breathing?
16-20 cycle per minute
what are the phases or cycle of breathing?
inspiration, expiration
Amount of air in a single inspiration or expiration
Tidal volume
Above the tidal volume
inspiratory reserve volume
Volume of air that can be exhaled after a maximal inspiration
vital capacity
Amount of air remaining in the lungs after maximal expiration
residual volume
what is the approximate volume for the residual volume?
1500 ml
what is the approximate ml of air that enters the respiratory tract in a normal quiet breathing? what is the statement referring to?
500 ml, tidal volume
what is the ml of expiratory reserve volume?
1200 ml
what is the amount of volume in the inspiratory reserve volume?
3600 ml
Amount of air that may be forcibly inspired over and above
a normal inspiration
inspiratory reserve volume
Approximately 500 ml of air enters the respiratory tract in a
normal quiet breathing
tidal volume
what measures 3600 ml
inspiratory reserve volume
what measures 1200ml?
expiratory reserve volume
Amount of air that may be forcibly inspired over and above a normal inspiration?
inspiratory reserve volume
what is the formula for vital capacity?
Vital capacity = tidal volume + ERV + IRV
it is the Volume of air that remains in the lungs at the end of a
normal expiration
functional residual capacity
what is the formula for the functional residual capacity?
Functional residual capacity= ERV + RV
Maximal volume of air in the lungs after maximal inspiration
total lung capacity
what is the formula for total lung capacity?
Total Lung capacity = IRV + TV + ERV + RV
