RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

Question 1

Four steps of respiration

Answer 1

Ventilation,External respiration,Gas transport and Internal respiration

Question 2

the movement of the thorax and certain muscles that cause air to go in and out of our lungs

Answer 2

Ventilation

Question 3

O2 enters the blood in the lungs and CO2 exits the blood in the lungs

Answer 3

External respiration

Question 4

CO2 and O2 are circulated in the blood to and from the tissues.

Answer 4

Gas transport

Question 5

Gas exchange involves the exit of O2 from blood to move into the tissues, while CO2 exits the tissues to enter the blood

Answer 5

Internal respiration

Question 6

Functions of Respiratory System

Answer 6

Regulation of blood pH, Production of chemical mediators, Voice production ,Olfaction, Protection

Question 7

It can alter the blood pH by changing blood CO2 levels

Answer 7

Regulation of blood pH

Question 8

Lungs produces an enzyme called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). which is an important component of blood pressure regulation

Answer 8

Production of chemical mediators

Question 9

Air moving past the vocal folds makes sound and speech possible.

Answer 9

Voice production

Question 10

The sensation of smell occurs when airborne molecules are drawn into the nasal cavity.

Answer 10

Olfaction

Question 11

It provides protection against some microorganisms by preventing them from entering the body and removing them from respiratory surfaces.

Answer 11

Protection

Question 12

There are seven structures that make up the respiratory system

Answer 12

external nose, the nasal cavity, the pharynx, the larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs.

Question 13

respiratory system can be classified in two ways:

Answer 13

structurally and functionally.

Question 14

Upper Respiratory Tract are compose of

Answer 14

nose, Nasal Cavity, Pharynx (Throat), Larynx (Voicebox)

Question 15

Is the visible structure that forms a prominent feature of the face. It allows air to enter your body, then filters debris and warms and moistens the air.

Answer 15

nose

Question 16

Is the open chamber inside the nose where the air first enters the respiratory system.

Answer 16

nasal cavity

Question 17

Is the common opening of both the digestive and the respiratory system. It receives air from the nasal cavity and receives air, food, and drink from the oral cavity.

Answer 17

Pharynx (Throat)

Question 18

It prevents swallowed materials from entering the lower respiratory tract and regulates the passage of air in and out of the lower respiratory tract.

Answer 18

Larynx (Voicebox)

Question 19

Lower Respiratory Tract are

Answer 19

Trachea (Windpipe) , Bronchi (Branches of trachea) and Lungs

Question 20

Allows air to flow into the lungs.

Answer 20

Trachea (Windpipe)

Question 21

It is the main passageway and carries air into the lungs

Answer 21

Bronchi (Branches of trachea)

Question 22

The principal organ of respiration, and on a volume basis they are the largest organs in the body.

Answer 22

Lungs

Question 23

responsible for respiratory movements.

Answer 23

Diaphragm

Question 24

Functionally, it is divided into two regions:

Answer 24

conducting zone and respiratory zone

Question 25

exclusively for air movement and extends from the nose to the bronchioles.

Answer 25

conducting zone

Question 26

within the lungs and is where gas exchange between air and blood takes place

Answer 26

respiratory zone

Question 27

begins once gas exchange between inspired air and blood is possible. This occurs where alveoli start to form.

Answer 27

respiratory zone

Question 28

are well adapted for the movement, cleaning, warming, and humidification of air. Air is simply moved from the external environment to areas deep inside the lungs, which are in contact with blood capillaries

Answer 28

Conducting Zone
