QuestionAnswer
1. What portions of the respiratory system that are capable of gas exchange? (think about the structures of the respiratory zone) a. respiratory bronchioles b. alveolar ducts c. alveolar sacs d. alveoli
respiratory zone which consists of those structures where gas exchange occurs: a. respiratory bronchioles b. alveolar ducts c. alveolar sacs d. alveoli
2. What are included in the upper respiratory system? And the lower respiratory system?
The upper respiratory system includes: i. nose ii. pharynx iii. structures associated with the above two
The lower respiratory system includes i. larynx ii. trachea iii. bronchi iv. lungs
3.What organ functions as a passageway for both air and food? pharynx
4. What structure shields the opening to the larynx during swallowing? epiglottis
5.Describe the structure and function of the trachea.
trachea or windpipe is a tube located anterior to the esophagus fxn: passing air
trachea or windpipe and extends from the larynx down to the superior border of the fifth thoracic vertebra where it divides into right and left primary bronchi.
trachea or windpipe The wall has an inner lining that is a ciliated mucosa which moves dust-laden mucus up toward the pharynx.
trachea or windpipe The wall contains a stack of 16 to 20 C-shaped pieces of hyaline cartilage whose open sides face the esophagus
trachea or windpipe these incomplete rings of cartilage permit slight expansion of the esophagus into the trachea during swallowing and also provide a semirigid support to prevent inward collapse of the tracheal wall
6.Study the changes of the wall of the airways in the bronchial tree from bronchi to alveoli. Does the cartilage decreases or increase in quantity? Dose the amount of smooth muscle increases or decrease?
Study the changes of the wall of the airways in the bronchial tree from bronchi to alveoli.
Several changes are observed as branching progresses in the bronchial tree: the epithelium changes from ciliated to nonciliated in the terminal bronchioles
Several changes are observed as branching progresses in the bronchial tree: C-shaped pieces of cartilage in the primary bronchi are gradually replaced by plates of cartilage that finally disappear in the distal bronchioles
Several changes are observed as branching progresses in the bronchial tree: as the cartilage decreases, the amount of smooth muscle tissue increases - smooth muscle encircles the lumen in spiral bands and its contraction is affected by the ANS and by various chemicals
Does the cartilage decreases or increase in quantity? decreases
Dose the amount of smooth muscle increases or decrease? increases
7. Compare between the right and left primary bronchus. Which one is more vertical, shorter, and wider? (BRON-kus= windpipe
Which one is more vertical, shorter, and wider? Right primary bronchus/ in right lung
7. Compare between the right and left primary bronchus.
right primary bronchus. the right primary bronchus is more vertical, shorter, and wider than the left one the primary bronchi contain C-shaped pieces of cartilage and are lined by a ciliated mucosa which enters the right lung
left primary bronchus which enters the left lung
At the superior border of the fifth thoracic vertebra, the trachea divides into the right primary bronchus, which enters the right lung, and the left primary bronchus, which enters the left lung;
right primary bronchus. As a result, an aspirated object is more likely to enter and lodge in the right primary bronchus than the left.
Like the trachea, the primary bronchi (BRON-kı-) contain incomplete rings of cartilage and are lined by pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium.
left vs right lung The left lung has two lobes and two secondary bronchi; the right lung has three of each.
left vs right lung Because two-thirds of the heart lies to the left of the midline, the left lung contains a cardiac notch to accommodate the position of the heart.
left vs right lung The right lung is shorter than the left because the diaphragm is higher on the right side to accommodate the liver.
8. Name an internal feature located at the bifurcation of the trachea into bronchi. carina
At the point where the trachea divides into the right and left primary bronchi, there is an internal ridge called the carina
9. What does each primary bronchus supply? And each secondary bronchus? And each tertiary bronchus?
What does each primary bronchus supply? lung
And each secondary bronchus? lobe

Study the diaphragm. Origin: thoracic outlet; insertion: central tendon. Openings: vena caval foramen; esophageal hiatus; aortic hiatus Innervation: phrenic nerve (C3-C5).
Study the diaphragm. Action: major inspiration muscle; flattens or descend during contraction increasing vertical dimension of thoracic cavity -> Volume increases; Pressure decreases -> air rushes in.
Diaphragm p 372 dia-across;-praghm=wall Contraction of the diaphragm causes it to flatten and increases the vertical dimension of the thoracic cavity, resulting in inhalation;
Diaphragm p 372 dia-across;-praghm=wall relaxation of the diaphragm causes it to move superiorly and decreases the vertical dimension of the thoracic cavity,resulting in exhalation
12. What are the principal muscles of inspiration? (2 of them) 1.diaphragm (the most important inspiratory muscle) 2.external intercostals
13. What are the accessory muscles of inspiration? (3 of them) 1. scalene muscles 2. pectoralis minor 3. sternocleidomastoid
14. What causes the decrease in lung volume during normal expiration? this results in a decrease in the volume of the thoracic cavity due to: a. recoil of elastic fibers that were stretched during inspiration b. inward pull of surface tension due to the film of alveolar fluid
Exhalation (expiration) It is achieved by relaxation of the inspiratory muscles;
Exhalation (expiration) this results in a decrease in the volume of the thoracic cavity due to: a. recoil of elastic fibers that were stretched during inspiration b. inward pull of surface tension due to the film of alveolar fluid
Exhalation (expiration) This causes a decrease in lung volume which in turn increases the alveolar pressure.
15. When alveolar pressure becomes lower than atmospheric pressure, the air will flow into the lungs or out of the lungs? into the lungs (inhalation(inspiration))
16. Briefly define: pulmonary ventilation, external respiration, internal respiration,and cellular respiration
pulmonary ventilation or breathing , which includes inspiration and expiration of air between the lungs and the atmosphere
pulmonary ventilation or breathing p.800 The first process, pulmonary (pulmo=lung) ventilation, or breathing, consists of inhalation (inflow) and exhalation (outflow) of air and is the exchange of air between the atmosphere and the air spaces of the lungs.
external respiration external (pulmonary) respiration the exchange of gases between the air spaces in the lungs and the blood in pulmonary capillaries; the blood gains O2 and loses CO2
External (pulmonary) respiration This is the exchange of gases between the air spaces of the lungs and blood in pulmonary capillaries across the respiratory membrane. The blood gains O2 and loses CO2.
internal respiration internal (tissue) respiration, the exchange of gases between the blood in systemic capillaries and the body’s cells; the blood loses O2 and gains CO2
Internal (tissue) respiration This is the exchange of gases between systemic capillary blood and tissue cells. The blood loses O2 and gains CO2.
cellular respiration p,42 The oxidation of glucose to produce ATP that involves glycolysis, acetylcoenzyme. A formation, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.
