16
Q

is the tidal volume plus the inspiratory reserve volume

A

Inspiratory capacity

17
Q

is the sum of inspiratory reserve volume, the tidal volume and the expiratory reserve volume

A

Vital capacity

18
Q

is the sum of the inspiratory and expiratory reserves and the tidal and residual volumes

A

Total lung capacity

19
Q

Factors that influences exchange of gases across respiratory membrane

A
  1. Thickness of the membrane
  2. Total surface area of the respiratory membrane
  3. Partial pressure of gases across membrane
20
Q

Thickness increases during certain respiratory diseases

A

Respiratory membrane thickness

21
Q

Total surface area of the respiratory membrane is about 70sqm in normal adult

A

Surface area

22
Q

Pressure exerted by a specific gas in a mixture of gases, such as air

A

Partial pressure

23
Q

O2 diffuses from alveoli into the pulmonary capillaries because the Po2 in the alveoli is higher/ greater than in the pulmonary capillaries

A

Movement of gases in the lungs

24
Q

After O2 diffuses through the respiratory membrane into the blood about 98.5% of the O2 is transported in the blood and combines with iron-containing heme groups of hemoglobin

A

O2 transport

25
Q

CO2 enters the blood, it is transported in 3 ways;

A
  1. About 7% is transported as CO2 dissolved in plasma
  2. 23% is transported bound to blood proteins, primarily hemoglobin
  3. 70% is transported in the form of bicarbonate ions
26
Q

About __ is transported as CO2 dissolved in plasma

A

7%

27
Q

__ is transported bound to blood proteins, primarily hemoglobin

A

23%

28
Q

__ is transported in the form of bicarbonate ions

A

70%

29
Q

CO2 reacts with water forming

A

Carbonic acid (H2CO3)

30
Q

Carbonic acid will dissociate to form __ and ___

A

H+ and bicarbonate ions

31
Q

is located inside the RBC and on the surface of capillary epithelial cells

A

Carbonic anyhydrase

32
Q

Location of neurons involve in respiration

A

Located in the brainstem

33

Medullary respiratory is consists of..

A

2 dorsal respiratory
2 ventral respiratory group
