Question | Answer |

The Respiratory Organ System includes | epithelial, connective, muscle and nervous tissues |
The Respiratory Organ System is innervated by | sympathetic and parasympathetic autonomic nervous systems |
Functions of the Upper Respiratory System include | filtration, immunity, inflammation, humidification and temperature control |
The "nares" refers to | the two openings of the nose |
The hyoid bone is located near the | epiglottis |
The epiglottis, when it closes, folds down in which direction? | posterior or doral |
The upper portion of the lower respiratory tract | is responsible for speech and coughing |
The lower portion of the lower respiratory tract | performs the following functions: micro-filtration, immunity and inflamation |
The part(s) of the respiratory system involved directly in exchange of gas from blood to air called the | alveola(e) |
A small pulmonary vessel that is carrying high levels of CO2 and low levels of O2 is called a | pulmonary arteriole |
The four large pulmonary vessels that is involved in returning oxygenated blood to the heart are called the | pulmonary veins |
Breathing faster causes | respiratory alkalosis |
Breathing slower causes | respiratory acidosis |
The auscultatory "pulmonic area" is located | lateral to the superior portion of the sternum |
The auscultatory "tricuspid valve" is located | lateral to the inferior portion of thesternum |
The auscultatory "mitral (bicuspid) valve" is commonly located | at the point of maximum intensity (PMI), often just inferior to the nipple and near the vertical mid-clavicular line |
Pulling up the ribs and pulling down the diaphragm causes one to | breathe in |
The heart consists of two | pumps (one for the pulmonary system and one for the rest of the body) |
The smallest vessels in the body are called | capillaries |
The great vessels returning systemic blood to the heart are called the | superior and inferior vena cavae |
Oxygenated blood returning from the lungs is directed into what chamber of the heart? | left auricle (atrium) |
Unoxygenate blood being sent from the right auricle (atrium) to the right ventricle passes through which heart valve? | tricuspid valve |
Blood passing through the pulmonary valves is oxygenated or deoxygenated? | deoxygenated |
Blood pssing through the bicuspid or mitral valve is oxygenated or deoxygenated? | oxygenated |
A "normal" heart sound consists of two major sounds called | S1 and S2 |
An EKG shows | conduction within the heart |
The two conductive "nodes" within heart muscle are called the | sino-atrial and atrio-ventricular nodes |
T-, T-Helper, B- and NK cells are | all immune cells |
A cytotoxic immune cell is probably a | T-cell |
HIV destroys primarily the | T-Helper cells |
Immunoglobulins are produced mainly by | B- (or plasma) cells |
An immunological cell that seeks out and destroys abnormal "self" cells is called a/an | NK-cell |
The lymphatic system dumps into the blood vessels via | the Thorascic duct |
Specific immunity involves two "responses," namely | cellular and humoral |
The "First Line of Defense" in inflammation and immune defense is | the skin and mucous membranes |
"Second Line Barriers" to infection include | complement, interferon and inflammation |
Humoral cell response refers to | the antibody response |
