the vocal cords are in the | larynx |
which of the following is not a function of the mucus-covered nasal passages? | cooling exhaled air |
the intensity (volume) of a vocal sounds is a result of the | force of air passing over the vocal cords |
A flashlight placed just below the eyebrow in a darkened room illuminates the | frontal sinus |
Laryngitis is a potentially dangerous condition because it may | obstruct the airway |
the procedure used to directly examine the trachea and bronchial tree is called | bronchoscopy |
The mucous membrane lining the nasal cavity | warms incoming air, moistens incoming air, entraps dust, entraps other small particles |
The pharynx functions as a ______, whereas the larynx functions as a ______. | common passageway for air and food; passageway for air only |
The trachea | is lined with a ciliated mucous membrane, includes 20 C-shaped cartilage rings, is a passageway for air, is also called the windpipe. |
As the respiratory tube branches become finer | the epithelial lining changes from pseudostratified ciliated columnar to cuboidal and simple squamous epithelium. |
The right lung has ______ lobes; the left lung has ______ lobes | superior, middle, and inferior; superior and inferior |
The force that moves air into the lungs during inspiration comes from the | atmospheric pressure |
The force responsible for normal expiration is supplied by the | elastic recoil of tissues and surface tension |
The volume of air that enters or leaves the lungs during a normal respiratory cycle is the | tidal volume |
Of the respiratory air volumes listed, which one has the largest volume? | vital capacity |
The visceral and parietal pleural membranes are normally held together by | a thin film of serous fluid |
Air entering the potential space of the pleural cavity is called | pneumothorax |
A simple spirometer cannot measure which of the following air volumes? | risidual volume |
The first event in inspiration is | the diaphragm moves downward and the external intercostal muscles contract |
The first event in expiration is | the diaphragm and external intercostal respiratory muscles relax |
The inverse relationship between pressure and volume is known as | Boyle's law |
The resporatiory control areas are in the | pons and medulla oblongata |
" im going tot hold my breath until I turn blue and stop breathing and die and it will be all your fault!" shrieked the 6-year-old at her father. the child was unable to carry out her threat because. | increasing CO2 and hydrogen ion concentration and decreasing oxygen concentraton stimulate chemoreceptors |
Baby Timothy suffers from apnea and is hooked up to a monitor to warn his parents when he stops breathing. Timothy's dad snores verly loudly. timothy's condition differs from his father's in that infant apnea | a central problem of repiratory control |
The ventral part of the medulla oblongata near the orgin of the vagus nerve has | central problem of repiratory control |
which of the following factors does not directly affect breathing rate? | Ph |
Peripheral receptors stimulate the respiratory areas resulting in | increasing respiratory rate |
the partial pressure of oxygen that stimulates the respiratory areas is __ of normal | 50% |
oxygen plays a minor role in control of normal respiration because | deoxygenated venous blood in 75% saturated |
which of the follwoing is important in maintaining the pH of blood | carbon dioxide |
The chemoreceptors in the carotid and aortic bodies are most sentitive to changes in blood concentration | oxygen |
Carbon dioxide is sometimes added to the air that a patient breathes in order to | increase the rate and death of breathing |
Hyperventilation is usually accompanied by a(n) | decreasing in blood CO2 concentration and rise in pH |
Max works out about an hour every day, using aerobic machines at a gym. During his moderate physical excerise, blood concentrations of | Oxygen and carbon dioxide remain nearly unchanged. |
Increasing blood concentrations of carbon dioxide and hydrogen ions have simalar effects upon the respiratory eareas due to | an ncreasing in carbon dioxide, increasing hydrogen ions. |
The walls of the alveoli are composed of | simple squamous epithelium |
The respiratory membrane consists of | two thickness of epithelial cells and basement membranes |
Alveoli are kept clean by the action of | macrophages |
In bronchopulmonary dysplasia, the lungs of newborns become inflamed and scarred. Most infants recover, but some die. An experimental treatment cultures stem cells from a newborn's umbilical cord. The stem cells, in a lab dish, gives rise to type II cells | the type II cells secrete sufactant and the type I cells from the respiratory membrane |
police stop Richard for driving erratically at 3 Am and give him a breathalyzer test, which he fails miserably because of | the thinness of his respirtory membranes |
The amount of oxygen released from oxyhemoglobin increases when | carbon dioxide concentration increases |
The enzyme carbonic anhydrase causes | carbon dioxide to react with water |
which of the following proteins transports some carbon dioxide in the blood? | hemoglobin |
Globin is | the protein part of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. |
The chloride shift | maintains the ionic balance between the red blood cells and the plasma |
A mother and two young children are found passed out in their aprtment, where a space heater is on. Emergency medical technicians suspect carbon monoxide poising,so they give the patients | highy concentrated oxygen and some carbon dioxide |
Changes in the respirtory system that accompany aging are | -thickness mucus - slowed swallowing reflex - macrophages become less efficient at kepping bacteria out - cilia become less active or vanish |
Exposure to secondhand smoke can cause or increase risk of | heart disease, lung cancer, and low birth weight - damage to the smooth endothelial lining of blood vessels |
cancers that orginates in the lungs is most likely to begin in | epithelial (lining) cells |
Smokers are more susceptible to respirtory infections because | their respirtory passages lose cilia, which would otherwise remove bacteria |
In emphysema | pressure in alveoli increases and their walls burst, coalescing them and decreasing the surface area for gas exchange |
In october 2001 at the site of the World Trade Center in New York City, fires were still buring from the terrorist attacks that had brought down the building. The greatest danger to the respiratory system was | very small particles of debris |
