diaphragm

a major muscle that helps to regulate the volume of the lungs that is located at the bottom of the ribcage

respiratory systems two major functional divisions

air conducting, respiratory

how do we make sounds?

air forced between vocal cords = sound

larynx

also known as the voice box

The tiny air sacs at the end of the bronchioles are called ____________.

alveoli

the respiratory membrane is a union of...

alveolus and capillary

pharynx

an automatic space that connects the nasal and oral cavity connect to esophagus or larynx - funnel shaped organ

macrophages

cells in the alveoli that help with the immune system - romaning alveolar macrophages patrol for anything that eluded upper respiratory defenses

epithelial cells (innermost lining of trachea) have slender extensions called..

cilia - help cleanse - filter air - trap larger particles and transport them in an upward motion towards the larynx & oral cavity so we can spit it out -- process called "mucocillary escalator"

lymphatic vessels of the lungs

collected filtered interstitial fluid at capillaries

the nasal cavity of the mucous membrane consists of...

columnar epithelium & goblet cells

nasal cavity of mucous membrane (columnar epithelium)

columnar epithelium is connected to lamina propria (areolar tissue) - have extensions called cilia that help to trap debris and pathogens - simple = 1 layer

nasal cavity of the mucous membrane (globlet cells)

contains globlet cells (mucous cells) between epithelial cells

major alar cartilage

curved cartilage that comprises the tip of the nose

volume and pressure are __ proportional, when volume increases the pressure decreases.

inversely

lower respiratory tract

trachea bronchi alveoli - bronchi and alveoli make up the lungs (in the thoracic cavity)

what is the purpose of c-shape of the esophagus?

trachea sits in front of the esophagus, we do not want cartilage rubbing up against the esophagus because with each swallow we would have major abrasion the cartilage

As air enters the nasal cavity, what are important first steps to prepare the air for ultimate gas exchange? Choose all that apply. - cleanse the air - humidify the air - warm the air - remove the oxygen

- cleanse the air - humidify the air - warm the air

trachea

- flexible tube, carried air from larynx to lungs - located anterior to the esophagus posterior to the heart - c shaped cartilage rings provide structure, connected by smooth muscle (doesn't cover the whole trachea)

what sinuses are there?

- frontal sinuses - sphenoid sinus - ethmoid air cells - maxillary sinus

3 regions of pharynx

respiratory zone

- thin walled simple squamous epithelium - allows gas exchange with blood - smooth muscle only in bronchioles - single layer in alveoli

purpose of nasal sinuses

as the air enters the nasal cavity, what are important first steps to prepare the air for ultimate gas exchange?

1. cleanse (debris, pathogens, dust) 2. warm (cold air can be damaging to the bronchioles) 3. humidify

if you are talking or laughing while eating, the epiglottis might not seal off the trachea tightly (because you need air passage to talk) and food may accidentally enter the trachea. In this case, the body responds by coughing to expel the food from the trachea. If it is not expelled, the solid material may damage the...

less

What two tissue types make up membranes in our body? - loose connective/osseous - loose connective/areolar - loose connective/epithelial - adipose/muscle

loose connective/epithelial

In the lungs, the capillaries beds are ____ in oxygen and the alveoli are ___ in oxygen, so oxygen diffuses into the blood.

low,high

what do globlet cells in the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity do?

makes mucous to humidify air and trap debris or pathogens (cleansing), - mucous is transported up into the cilia

conducting zone

mucosa-lined, allows no gas change with blood - made up of hyaline cartilage THICK WALLED - includes everything before respiratory bronchioles - supported by cartilage and smooth muscle *** transport of respiratory gases (O2, CO2)

intercostal muscle
