what is the lower respiratory tract?

A

the trachea through the lungs

152
Q

air moving in and out of the lungs

A

pulmonary ventilation

153
Q

one complete breath in and out

A

respiratory cycle

154
Q

moving air into and out of the lungs

A

breathing or ventilation

155
Q

exchanging gases between the air in the lungs and the blood

A

external respiration

156
Q

transport of oxygen to the body cells and the return of CO2

A

gas transport by blood

157
Q

exchanging gases between the blood and the body cells

A

internal respiration

158
Q

using the oxygen in cell processes and the production of CO2

A

cellular respiration

159
Q

relaxed and automatic breathing

A

quiet respiration

160
Q

forced respiration

A

occurs when you are exercising, coughing, or other types of deep breathing

161
Q

what are the inspiratory muscles?

A

external intercostals and diaphragm

162
Q

what happens to the thoracic cavity during inspiration?

A

the diaphragm is pushed down and becomes flat (contracts), the rib cage expands outward, the thoracic cavity enlarges, volume increases, pressure decreases, gases rush into the lungs to fill the partial vacuum that is created

163
Q

what happens to the thoracic cavity in expiration?

A

the diaphragm relaxes (curved), the rib cage pushes in, lungs recoil, intrapulmonary volume decreases, pressure increases, air rushes out

164
Q

the pressure of a given quantity of gas is inversely proportional to its volume assuming a constant temperature

A

boyle’s lwa

165
Q

the volume of a given quantity of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature assuming a constant pressure

A

charles’s law

166
Q

the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of its individual gases

A

daltons law

167
Q

at the air-water interface, the amount of gas that dissolves in water is deteremined by its solubility in water and its partial pressure in the air, assuming a constant temp

A

henrys law

168
Q

what is the equation for the combined gas law?

A

PV/T = P1V1/T1

temp is in K

169
Q

how to find K

A

K = C + 273

170
Q

spirometer

A

a device that can measure respiratory volumes

171
Q

amount of air inhaled or exhaled with each breath under resting conditions and how much is it?

A

tidal volume = 500 mL

172
Q

amount of air that can be forcefully inhaled after a normal tidal volume inhalation and how much is it?

A

inspiratory reserve volume (IRV) = 3100 mL

173
Q

amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled after a normal tidal volume exhalation and how much is it?

A

1200 mL = expiratory reserve volume ERV

174
Q

maximum amount of air that can be exhaled after a maximal inspiration and how much is it?

A

vital capacity (VC) = 4800 mL

175
Q

what does carbon dioxide react with in the blood to make an acid? what is this acid?

A

it reacts with water to make carbonic acid

176
Q

what does carbonic acid dissociate into?

A

H+ and bicarbonate

177
Q

how are hydrogen ions buffered with regards to the respiratory system?

A

they react with hemoglobin, which causes an electrical imbalance to build up in the RBCs pulling Cl- into the blood cells from the plasma (chloride shift)

178
Q

type of ventilation that causes alkalinity

A

hyperventilation causes people to take in more oxygen than normal which can decrease the carbon dioxide in the blood and cause the blood to become basic

179
Q

what type of ventilation causes acidity?

A

hypoventilation
