Q

Surface Tension

A

the tension due to the attraction between like molecules

17
Q

Mammal Pulmonary surfactant

A

Lowers surface tension between the alveolar membranes. made in alveolar cells in late pregnancy

18
Q

Avian pulmonary surfactant

A

lowers surface tension between air capillary membranes. made from laminated osmiophilic bodies on day 18

19
Q

Functions of the Upper respiratory system

A

Filter, Heat, Humidify

20
Q

Tidal Volume

A

Volume of air moving in and out during respiration

21
Q

Minute Respiratory Volume

A

Tidal volume times respiration rate

22
Q

Resting tidal volume

A

Volume of air moving in an out during respiration at rest

23
Q

Vital capacity

A

Maximum volume of air inspired after maximum expiration

24
Q

Residual volume

A

the air that remains in the airways after maximal forced expiration and thus cannot be removed

25
Q

Total lung capacity

A

The sum of vital capacity and residual volume

26
Q

Pathway for air for the avian

A

larynx to trachea to syrinx to bronchus to mesobronchus fills the rear most air sacs first (abdominal air sacs and caudal thoracic air sacs). Back to the mesobronchus to the dorsobronchus to the parabronchus to the air capillaries, back to the parabronchus to the ventrobroncus and back to the mesobronchus. then fills the remaining air sacs (cranial thoracic air sac, clavicular air sac, and cervical air sac) back to the mesobronchus. then out the bronchus the syrinx the trachea and finally the larynx
