Describe the characteristics of keeping alveoli dry?

- large amounts of water in lungs is bad - we already have water and we dont need more or drowning will occur and gas/air cant be added to the blood - it is crucial to prevent fluid from accumulating in the alveoli, because gases diffuse too slowly through liquid sufficiently aerate the blood. - gases diffuse to slowly through liquid to sufficiently aerate the blood - except for a thin oil of moisture on the aveolar wall, the alveoli are kept dry by the absorption of excess water by the blood capillaries - alveoli are kept dry by absorption of excess liquid by the blood capillaries. - the lungs also have a more extensive lymphatic drainage than any other organ in the body

what is alveolar gas exchange?

- movement oxygen and carbon dixiode across the respiratory membrane - air in the alveolus is in contract with the film of water covering the alveolar epithelium. For oxygen to get into the blood, it must dissolve in this water and pass through the respiratory membrane separating the air from the bloodstream. For carbon dioxide to leave the blood, it must pass the other way and diffuse out of the water film into the alveolar air.

What is intrapulmonary pressure?

- pressure inside the lungs decreases as lung volume increases during inspiration; - pressure increases during expiration - pressure decreases, volume increases - if the intrapulmonary pressure falls below the atmospheric pressure, then air tends to flow down its pressure gradient into the lungs. Conversely, if intrapulmonary pressure rises above atmospheric pressure, air flows out. - aka intra- alveolar pressure within the alveoli, increases and decreases with breathing but always returns to "zero" to equalize with atmospheric pressure - if the lungs contain a quantity of gas and lung volume increases, their internal pressure falls - lung volume decreases, intrapulmonary pressure rises

what happens during expiration

- seen mainly by the elastic recoil of the thoracic cages - inspiratory muscles relax, decrease in thoracic and intrapulmonary volume, alveoli compresses, intrapulmonary pressure increases to 1mmhg above Patm (760mmhg) - the recoil compresses the lung and raises the intrapulmonary pressure to about +1 cm H2O.

passive

What is the serous membrane that encloses each lung? Multiple choice question. Pericardium Pleura Peritoneum Meninx

pleura

the space between the parietal and visceral pleura is called the ______?

pleural cavity

What is intrapleural pressure?

pleural cavity pressure becomes more negative as chest wall expands during inspiration. returns to initial value as chest wall recoils - the pressure within the pleural cavity that increases and decreases within breathing but is a -5 value (757mmhg) that always needs to stay negative - the lungs are elasticity, and tend to recoil inwards - the lungs and chest wall are pulling in opposite directions. this creates a negative pressure averaging about -5 cm H2O between the parental and visceral pleurae - space between lungs and ribcage should be negative or 754-756 lower than pressure in lungs and atmosphere - pressure in between the lungs and ribcage which is your pleural cavity

A clinical condition characterized by the presence of air in the pleural cavity called which of the following? Multiple choice question. Myocardial infarct Stroke Pneumothorax Atelectasis

pneumothorax

what tissue makes up the walls of the alveoli?

simple squamous epithelium (type 1 cells) surrounded by thin basement membrane squamous (type 1) alveolar cells cover about 95% of the alveolar surface area. their thinness allows for rapid gas diffusion between the air and the blood. the squamous alveolar cells cover so much more surface area because they're so thin and spread out, even though they're far outnumbered by the great alveolar cells

systemic gas exchange

What is the distal-most portion of the respiratory system that is incapable of gas exchange? Multiple choice question. Respiratory bronchioles Terminal bronchioles Tertiary bronchi Bronchioles

terminal bronchioles

what is the final branches of the conducting zone?

terminal bronchioles

what values are used to determine a person's respiratory health?

the 4 major respiratory volumes: tidal volume (TV), inspiratory reserve volume (IRV), ERV (expiratory reserve volume), residual volume (RV) respiratry capacities: inspiratory capacity, functional residual capacity, vital capacity total lung capacity

upper respiratory tract

the airway from the nose through the larynx (that is, the respiratory organs the head and necks,

what is tidal volume?

the amount of air inhaled and exhaled in one cycle during quiet breathing

what is minute ventilation?

the amount of air that moves into the lungs per minuteequals TV*respiratory rate

What is ventalation?

the amount of gas going to the alveoli

what are the 3 sections of a lung?

the apex (superior aspect) hilus (the groove that allows passage of the primary bronchi, pulmonary vessels, nerves, and lymphatics, base (inferior aspect)

what is the air blood barrier?

the barrier between capillary blood and alveolar air comprising the alveolar epithelum and capillary endothelim with their adherent basemement membrane and eoithelial cell

what is the respiratory membrane?

the barrier between the alveolar air and blood

what is perfusion?

the blood flow in pulmonary capillaries

what system performs transportation of respiratory gases and internal respiration?

the circulatory system

what are the 2 portions/zones of the respiratory system?

the conducting zone and the respiratory zone

the nasal cavity is divided into right and left halves by why plate?

the dividing wall is a vertical plate, called the nasal septum the palate seperates the nasal cavity from the oral cavity and allows you to breath while chewing food.

what bones make up the roof of the nasal cavity?

the ethmoid and sphenoid bones the ethmoid and sphenoid bones compose the roof of the nasal cavity

what does the conchae and meatus do?

the narrowness of these passages and the turbulence caused by the conchae ensure the most air contacts the mucous membranes on its way through. As it does, must dust in the air sticks to th to the mucus and the air picks up moisture and heat from the mucosa. The conchae thus enable the nose to cleanse, warm, and humidify the air more effectively than if the air had an unobstructed flow through cavernous space

what bones make up the floor of the nasal cavity?

the palate (which separates the nasal and oral cavities) the palate separates the nasal cavity from the oral cavity and allows you to breath while chewing food.

lower respiratory track

the regions from the trachea through the lungs compose (the respiratory organs of the thorax)

what structures make up the bronchial respiratory tree?

the right and left primary bronchi, the secondary/lobar bronchi, tertiary/segmental bronchi, the bronchioles and the terminal bronchioles

what forms the roof and floor of the nasal cavity

the roof of the nasal cavity is composed of the ethmoid and sphenoid bones and the floor is composed of hard palate.

pleural cavity

the space between the parietal and visceral pleura. - it does not contain the lung; rather, it wraps around the lung, much like pericardium wraps around the heart. The pleural cavity contains nothin but a thin film of lubricating pleural fluid; the cavity is only a potential space, meaning there is normally no room between the membranes.

what can also change diameter?

the trachea and bronchi can change diameter to a degree, but are more constrained by the supporting cartilages in their walls.

what is the transportation of respiratory gases

the transport of CO2 out of tissues and O2 in

what is systemic gas exchange?

the unloading of O2 and loading of CO2 at the systemic capillaries

forced expiratory volume

the volume of air or the percentage of the volume capacity that can be exhaled in a given time interval the volume of air (or percentage of the vital capacity) that can be exhaled in a specific amount of time

describe the appearance of the lobes in the right lung

there are superior middle and inferior lobes separated by oblique and horizontal fissures

describe the appearance of the lobes on the left lung

there is a superior and inferior lobe separated by the oblique fissure

alveolar gas exchange explain

this reaction occurs in the lungs essentially the reverse of system gas exchange. as hemoglobin loads oxygen, its affinity H+ declines. Hydrogen ions dissociate from the hemoglobin and bind with bicarbonate ion transported from the plasma into the RBCs. cloride ions are transported back out of the RBC ( a reverse cloride shift). The reaction of H+ and HCO2- revers the hydration reaction and generate free CO2. which then diffues them into the alveolus to be exhaled as does the co2 released from carbaminohemglobin and co2 gas that was dissolved in the plasma

The right lung has how many secondary bronchi? Multiple choice question. One Four Three Two Five

three

hilium of the lung

through which the lung receives the main bronchus, blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerves a point on the surface of an organ where blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, or nerves enter and leave, usually marked by a depression and slit; the midpoint of the concave surface of any organ that is roughly bean-shaped, such as the lymph nodes, kidneys, and lungs

alveolus

tiny air sac at the end of a bronchiole in the lungs that provides surface area for gas exchange to occur is a pouch about 0.2 to 0.5 mm in diameter.

what is the function of the respiratory zone?

to actually exchange the respiratory gases

what is the function of the respiratory system?

to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide
