pressure of a gas in a closed container is inversely proportional to the volume of the container
boyle’s law
lungs must expand, increasing lung volume, decreasing pressure below atmospheric pressure
inhalation(active)
as lung volume increases, ___ pressure drops
alveolar (intrapulmonic)
presurre in lungs greater than atmospheric pressure (normally passive)
exhalation
total volume of aire inhaled and exhaled each min (normal 12 breaths/min)
minute ventilation
moving about 500 ml of air in and out of lungs
tidal volume
TV+IRV+ERV
vital capacity
VC+residural volume
total lung capacity
each gas in a mixture of gases exerts its own pressure as if no other gases were present; each gas diffuses across a permeable membrane from the area where its partial pressure is greater to the area where its partial pressure is less[THE GREATER THE DIFF, THE FASTER THE RATE OF DIFFUSION]
Dalton’s law
quantity of a gas that will dissolve in a liquid is proportional to the partial pressures of the gas and its solubility
henry’s law
4 iron: 1 oxygen
oxyhemoglobin
largest serious membrane of body; pariertal and visceral
peritoneum
digestion begins mechanically by mouth -catabolic enzyme (amylase)
amylase
salivary liquid produce; salvilaey amylase; duct from this to 2nd molar is a flap producing saliva
parotid
thicker saliva ; squirts
submandibular
