Question 17

This gas is then transported by the blood to __________ cells.

Answer 17

TISSUE

Question 18

Answer 18

OXYgen

Question 19

Exchange of gases between atmosphere & body cells
What is this called?

Answer 19

aka breathing

Question 20

What function are from the respiratory system?

Answer 20

-pH balance
-sense of smell
-water concentration of air
-produce vocal sounds
-temp control
-filter air

Question 21

What are the upper parts of the respiratory system?

Nose
Nasal Cavity
Sinuses
Pharynx
Larynx

Question 22

oxygen used for adrenose triphosphate(ATP)
What is this event called?

Cricoid
Epiglottic

Question 24

list the smaller cartilages in the larynx

Answer 24

Amanda Can Catch
Aryteniod
Corniculate
Cuneiform

Question 25

Boyles law consists of if inside alevoli ______ it causes to pull ______ air into lungs

Answer 25

decreases; more
talks about equilibrium

Question 26

What happens to O2 that doesn’t go into RBC?

Answer 26

it turns into plasma

Question 27

passageway of the airway in lung

Answer 27

lobe (connection to lymph & blood vessels)
lobule
terminal bronchioles
alveoli nerves –blood &lymph vessels

Question 28

Events in inspiration

Answer 28

Phrenic nerve pulses = muscle contraction in diaphragm
Diaphragm moves DOWN & muscles may raise ribs
INTRa alveolar pressure decreases
Atmosphereic pressure become greater bc forced air into respiratory tract
LUNGS FILL W/AIR

Question 29

Events in EXpiration

Answer 29

Diaphragm/muscles RELAX
Lungs RECOIL & surface tension @ alevolar walls
Recoil = INCREASE intra alveolar pressure(less air = high al pressure)
AIR FORCED OUT

Answer 33

-inspiratory reserve volume
amount of air that can be inhaled ADDITION to tidal vol
-expiratory reserve volume
amount of air that can be Exhaled ADDITION to tidal
-residual volume
