Why?

A

The Atmospheric Pressure + Intra-Thoracic Pressure.

To allow room for the lungs to expand

88
Q

What does positive or increased intra-pleural pressure do to the lungs?

A

Air goes into the intra-pleural space which causes a collapse of the lung (Which is called a Pneumothorax)

A

This is caused by an open chest cavity like a stab wound or surgery

90
Q

A Pneumothorax will have what effect on the lung?

A

Thoracentesis

93
Q

A

The Pulmonary Vein

108
Q

Inspiration/Inhalation is a-

A

Active Process

109
Q

Diaphragm contracts & moves downward = lungs expand =
