  • thoracic cavity volume decreases
  • elastic lungs recoil passively and intrapulmonary volume descend
  • intrapulmonary pressure rises above atmospheric pressure
  • gases flow out of lungs down the pressure gradient until intrapulmonary pressure is 0

Activities during expiration

A

:inspiration-the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles contract and the rib cage rises

Q

SEROSA

A

In anatomy, serous membrane (or serosa) is a smooth membrane consisting of a thin layer of cells which secrete serous fluid, and a thin epithelial layer. The Latin anatomical name is tunica serosa. Serous membranes line and enclose several body cavities, known as serous cavities, where they secrete a lubricating fluid which reduces friction from muscle movement

112
Q

SPLANCHNIC CIRCULATION

A

Splanchnic, from a Greek word splēn, meaning organ usually used to describe visceral organ

113
Q

STIMULUS BREATHING

A

depth and rate of breathing-inspiratory depth is determined by how actively the respiratory center stimulates the respiratory muscles

  • rate if respiration is determined by how long the inspiratory center is active
  • respiratory centers in the pons and medulla are sensitive to both excitatory and inhibitory stimuli
114
Q

SUBMUCOSA

A

In the gastrointestinal tract, the submucosa is the layer of dense irregular connective tissue or loose connective tissue that supports the mucosa, as well as joins the mucosa to the bulk of overlying smooth muscle (fibers running circularly within layer of longitudinal muscle).

115
Q

SURFACTANT

A

Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension (or interfacial tension) between two liquids or between a liquid and a solid. Surfactants may act as detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, foaming agents, and dispersants.

116
Q

Tidal volume

A

:respiratory volumes-tidal volume(TV):air the moves into and out of the lungs with each breath(approx. 500 ml)

117
Q

TONGUE

A

:tongue-occupies floor of the mouth and fills oral cavity when mouth is closed
-speech, swallowing, gripping and repositioning food, mixing food with saliva and forming the bolus

118
Q

TOOTH STRUCTURE

A

:tooth structure-two main region, crown and root

  • crown is above gum line
  • enamel:acellular brittle material composed of calcium salts and hydroxyapatite crystals, hardest substance in body and encapsulate entire crown
  • root or portion embedded in jawbones
  • neck:constriction where the crown and root come together
  • cementum:calcified connective tissue, covers root, attaches it to the periodontal ligament
  • periodontal ligament:anchors the tooth in the alveolus of the jaw and forms the fibrous joint called a gomaphosis
  • gingival sulcus:depression where the gingiva borders the tooth
  • dentin:bone like material deep to the enamel cap that forms the bulk of the tooth
  • pulp cavity:cavity surrounded by dentin that contains pulp
  • pulp:connective tissue, blood vessels, and nerves
  • root canal:portion of pulp cavity that extend into the root
  • apical foramen:proximal opening to the root canal
  • odontoblasts:secrete and maintain dentin throughout life
119
Q

TRACHEA

A

Wind pipe, where air is taken to bronchus

120
Q

VISCERAL PLEURA

A
  • visceral or pulmonary pleurae:covers the external lung surface
    • divides the thoracic cavity into three chambers,the central mediastinum,two lateral compartments each containing a lung
121
Q

VITAL CAPACITY

A

-vital capacity(VC):total amount of exchangeable air(TR+IRV+ERV)

122
Q

Vocal cords

A

:vocal ligaments-attach the arytemoud cartilages to the thyroid cartilage

  • composed of elastic fibers that form mucosal folds called true vocal cords
  • the medial opening between them is the glottis
  • they vibrate to produce sound as air rushes up from the lungs
123
Q

Voice characteristics

A

:vocal production-speech is intermittent release of expired air while opening and closing the glottis

  • pitch is determined by length and tension of vocal cords
  • loudness:depends upon the force at which the air rushes across the vocal cords
  • the pharynx resonates, amplifies, and enhances sound quality
  • sounds is shaped into language by action of the pharynx,tongue,soft palate,and lips
