A&p Exercise 36- Lab Exam 3

Front 1

cellular respiration

Back 1

as cells use oxygen they release carbon dioxide a waste product. these oxygen using cellular processes are known as...

Front 2

respiratory system

Back 2

the role of this system is to supply the body with oxygen and dispose of carbon dioxide

Front 3

respiration

Back 3

to fulfill the role of the respiratory system, there are four distinct processes collectively referred to as this

Front 4

pulmonary ventilation (ventilation, breathing)

Back 4

movement of the air into and out of the lungs so that gases in the alveoli are continuously changed and refreshed

Front 5

external respiration

Back 5

gas exchange between the blood and the air filled chambers of the lungs, oxygen loading (carbon dioxide unloading)

Front 6

transport of respiratory gases

Back 6

the transport of respiratory gases between the lungs and tissue cells of the body using blood as the transport vehicle (cardiovascular system)

Front 7

internal respiration

Back 7

exchange gases between systemic blood and tissue cells( oxygen unloading carbon dioxide loading)

Front 8

paranasal sinuses

Back 8

surround the nasal cavity, named for the bones in which they are located, act as resonance chambers in speech

Front 9

cleft palate

Back 9

genetic defect, failure of the palatine bones and/or palatine processes of the maxillary bone to fuse medially, cause difficulty in breathing, sucking, chewing, speech

Front 10

throat

Back 10

pharynx, connects the nasal and oral cavities to the larynx and
esophagus

Front 11

otitis media

Back 11

because of the continuity of the middle ear and nasopharyngneal mucosae, nasal infections maybe invade the middle ear and cause this

Front 12

adams apple

Back 12

the large shield shaped thyroid cartilage, whose anterior medial laryngeal prominence is commonly referred to as this

Front 13

respiratory bronchioles

Back 13

the terminal branches of the bronchioles

Front 14

respiratory tree

Back 14

the continuous branching of the respiratory passageways in the lungs is often referred to as this

Front 15

respiratory membrane

Back 15

air blood barrier, the alveolar and capillary walls and their fused basal laminae form this

Front 16

respiratory zone structures

Back 16

alveolar sacs, alveolar ducts, and respiratory bronchioles. these structures are involved with the passing of oxygen/ carbon dioxide from the alveolar air to the capillary blood

Front 17

conducting zone structures

Back 17

nasal cavity to the terminal bronchioles. these structures serve access/exit routes to gas exchange chamber. anatomical dead space
