bronchioles

28
Q

bronchioles divide into what

A

terminal bronchioles

29
Q

as the bronchi get smaller, _______ decreases and ______ increases

A

cartilage, smooth muscle

30
Q

what are the three types of cells in the respiratory surface

A

dust, type I pneumocytes, type II pneumocytes

31
Q

type I pneuomocytes from most of what

A

alveolar surface

32
Q

type II pneumocytes produce what

A

surfactant

33
Q

surfactant does what

A

allow for alveolar expansion during inspiration

34
Q

what are the 6 layers of the respiratory memebrane

A
35
Q

what two layers of the respiratory membrane are made of simple squamous epithelium

A
36
Q

why is simple squamous important

A

maximize diffusion

37
Q

what part of the lung sits on the diaphragm

A

base

38
Q

this is on the medial surface of the lung where bronchi and blood vessels enter the lung

A

Hilum

39
Q

which lung has 3 lobes opposed to 2

A

right lung

40
Q

what plays the largest role in movement during inspiration

A

diaphragm

41
Q

what aid in expiration

A

abdominal muscles and internal intercostals

42
Q

passive expiration is called what

A

quiet expiration

43
Q

as the diaphragm moves down (contracts), the volume of the lungs increases so air moves_____

A

in

44
Q

as the diaphragm relaxes, the volume of the lungs decreases so air moves___

A

out

45
Q

this is the pressure within the pleural cavity

A

pleural pressure

46
Q

is pleural pressure usually greater or less than alveoli

A

less

47
Q

alveoli are partially ___ even at rest

A

expanded

48
Q

the opening between pleural cavity and air that causes a loss of pleural pressure resulting in alveoli collapse

A

pneumothorax

49
Q

the measure of ease with which lungs and thorax expand is called what

A

compliance

50
Q

diffusion of gasses through respiratory membrane depends on these 4 factors

A
51
Q

these:
pulmonary fibrosis
collapse of alveoli(pulmonary edema)
incr. resistance to airflow caused by airway obstruct
kyphosis and scoliosis
do what to compliance?

A

decrease compliance

52
Q

At rest, how much oxygen is released

A

25%

53
Q

At rest, how much oxygen is released

A

25%

54
Q

During exercise, how much oxygen is released

A

73%

55
Q

When the CO2 increases and the pH increases, does oxygen release increase or decrease

A

Increase

56
Q

Increased temp (therefore increased metabolism), does oxygen release into the tissue increase or decrease

A

Increase

57
Q

The effect when hemoglobin that has released oxygen binds more readily to CO2 than hemoglobin that has oxygen bound to it

A

Haldane effect

58
Q

The effect when hydrogen ions combine with hemoglobin to promote the release of oxygen from the hemoglobin

A

Bohr effect

59
Q

This effect happens when low pH causes greater oxygen release from hemoglobin

A

Bohr effect

60
Q

At tissue level, hydrogen ions combine with hemoglobin and promotes oxygen release from hemoglobin

A

Bohr effect

61
Q

In tissue capillaries, hemoglobin that has released oxygen readily combines with carbon dioxide

A

Haldane effect

62
Q

The inverse of the Bohr effect: hydrogen ions are released from hemoglobin and promotes uptake of oxygen by hemoglobin. This happens where

A

Pulmonary capillaries

63
Q

The inverse of the Haldane effect: When hemoglobin that is bound to oxygen readily releases carbon dioxide. This happens where

A

Pulmonary capillaries
