Terminal bronchioles

47
Q

The bronchi resembles a tree and its branches it is referred to as

A

Bronchial tree

48
Q

Encloses and protects each lung

A

Pleural membranes

49
Q

Pleural membrane is composed of two layers of serous membranes:

A
  1. Parietal pleura (outer)
  2. Visceral pleura (inner)
50
Q

The pleural cavity contains a lubricating fluid to prevent

A

Friction as lungs expand and contract during breathing

51
Q

The segment of lung tissue that each tertiary or segmental bronchi supplies is called a

A

Bronchopulmonary segment

52
Q

Bronchioles are further divided into

A

2-11 alveolar ducts or atria

53
Q

Around the circumference of the alveolar ducts are

A

Alveoli and Alveolar sacs

54

Alveoli

55
Q

Two or more alveoli that share a common opening

A

Alveolar sac

56
Q

The microscopic membrane through which the respiratory gases move is

Alveolar-capillary (respiratory) membrane

57
Q

The diaphragm is shaped like a?

A

Parachute

58

A

12 set of ribs

59
Q

They are connected directly to the sternum through the costal cartilage

Q

Breathing in causes

A

The chest to expand and the diaphragm to contract

73
Q

Breathing out causes

The chest to contract and the diaphragm to relax

74
Q

3 process of respiration

A
  1. Ventilation or breathing
  2. External respiration
  3. Internal respiration
75
Q

The movement of air between the atmosphere and the lungs

A

Ventilation or breathing

76
Q

Two phases of ventilation

A
  1. Inhalation or Inspiration - moves air into the lungs
  2. Exhalation or Expiration - moves air out of the lungs
77
Q

The exchange of gases between the lungs and the blood

A

External respiration

78
Q

The exchange of gases between the blood and the body cells

A

Internal respiration

79
Q

Occurs when the diaphragm and external intercostal muscle contract using decreased pressure and vacuum in the lungs

A

Breathing

80
Q

When the diaphragm and external intercostal muscle relax, we breath out, due to

A

Increased pressure in the lungs forcing the air out

81
Q

Mainly passive activity

A

Breathing out
