List two functions of the respiratory system

Back 23

Provides 02 and eliminates Co2, sense of smell, moves air in and out of the lungs

Front 24

What is the function and location of the Nasopharynx

Back 24

Provides for the passage of air from the nasal cavity, tonsils in the region provide protection from pathogens

Front 25

What is the function and location of the oropharynx?

Visceral pleura

Parietal pleura

Front 29

What are the layers of the respiratory membrane?

Back 29

Squamous alveolar cell

squamous endothelial cell of the capillary

shared basement membrane

Front 30

Describe the hilum and the root of the lung

Back 30

Consist of the bronchi and the pulmonary arteries and veins. Medial aspect of the lung serves as a point of attachment for the lung.

Front 31

Describe the cardiac impression and cardiac notch.

Back 31

Location where the heart resides within the lung

Front 32

What is the function of the nasal concha?

Back 32

bony projections from the lateral walls of the nasal cavity covered by mucosa

Create turbulence to increase the contact of inhaled air with mucus which traps dust and moistens the air

Front 33

What is the function of the vestibular and vocal folds?

Back 33

Vocal: To protect the airway from choking on material in the throat. To regulate the flow of air into our lungs. The production of sounds used for speech.

Vestibular: The vestibular folds of the larynx play a significant role in the maintenance of the laryngeal functions of breathing and preventing food and drink from entering the airway during swallowing. They aid phonation (speech) by suppressing dysphonia.

Front 34

Name the layers of the trachea

Back 34

1. Mucosa

2. Submucosa

3. Hyaline cartilage

4. Adventitia areolar ct

Front 35

Describe the blood supply to the lung

Back 35

Oxygen-depleted blood is pumped away from the heart via the pulmonary arteries.The lung's capillaries line small sacs in the lungs called the alveoli. The alveoli are the site of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the lungs.Air is inhaled through the nose or the mouth and fills the lungs. Oxygen passively flows from the air inside the alveoli into the blood in the alveolar capillaries, while carbon dioxide passively flows in the opposite direction. The air, along with the diffused carbon dioxide, is then exhaled.The oxygenated blood then leaves the lungs through pulmonary veins, which return it to the left heart, completing the pulmonary cycle.

Front 36

Define pneumothorax

Back 36

Abnormal collection of air in the pleural space that causes the uncoupling of the lung from the chest wall

Front 37

Define atelectasis

Back 37

Is the collapse or closure of the a lung resulting in reduced or absent exchange of gas

Front 38

What is surfactant?

Back 38

Complex naturally occurring substance made of a lipids and proteins that is produced in the lungs. Reduces the surface tension in the lungs and helps make the small air sacs in the lungs more stable
