Respiratory System
Question | Answer |
---|---|
pleur- | chest lining |
pneum-, pulm- | lungs |
thora- | chest |
trache- | windpipe |
principal organs of the respiratory system in mammals | nose, nasal cavities, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs |
upper respiratory tract | the airway from the nose through the pharynx and larynx |
lower respiratory tract | airway from the trachea through the lungs, includes the various bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli |
conductive zone | acts to transport air, includes the nose through the conducting bronchioles, ending with the terminal bronchioles |
respiratory zone | represents the region where gas exchange occurs and includes the respiratory bronchioles and alveoli |
where does gas exchange in birds occur | air capillaries |
functions of the upper respiratory system | filter, heat, humidify |
tidal volume | volume of air moving in and out during respiration |
minute respiratory volume | tidal volume times respiration rate |
resting tidal volume | volume of air moving in and out during respiration when at rest |
vital capacity | maximum volume of air inspired after maximum expiration |
residual volume | the air that remains in the airways after maximal forced expiration, and thus cannot be removed |
total lung capacity | the sum of vital capacity and residual volume |
components of the conductive zone | trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, conducting bronchioles, terminal bronchioles |
components of the respiratory zone | respiratory bronchioles, alveoli |
inspiration in mammals | muscles contract, lung volume increases, active due to muscle contraction |
expiration in mammals | muscles relax, volume decreases, passive (occurs when muscles relax) |
air spaces in avian respiratory system | cervical air sacs (2), clavicular air sac (1), cranial thoracic air sacs (2), caudal thoracic air sacs (2), abdominal air sacs (2), lungs (2) |
avian respiratory system components | trachea, bronchi/mesobronchi (primary), ventral bronchi (secondary), dorsal bronchi (secondary), parabronchi (tertiary), air capillaries |
pathway of air through the avian system | trachea, mesobronchi, dorsobronchi, parabronchi, air cappillaries, parabronchi, ventrobronchi, mesobronchi, trachea |
pulmonary surfactant | lowers surface tension between alveolar membranes preventing the alveoli from collapsing |
type of system in avians | open |
lungs expand in avians? | no |
in avians gas exchange occurs in | air capillaries |
inspiration in avians | active |
expiration in avians | active |
where pulmonary surfactant produced in avians | laminated osmiophillic bodies |
when pulmonary surfactant produced in avians | day 18 |
type of system in mammals | closed |
lungs expand in mammals? | yes |
in mammals gas exchange occurs in | alveoli |
inspiration in mammals | active |
expiration in mammals | passive |
where pulmonary surfactant produced in mammals | type II alveolar cells |
when pulmonary surfactant produced in mammals | late pregnancy |
