the Medulla Oblongata
|
|
What is the normal pH for blood?
|
7.4 (just slightly basic/alkalytic)
|
|
Forced deep breathing that occurs when the body is pushing out too much CO2.
|
Hyperventilation
|
|
During Hyperventilation, blood pH changes to___ Indicating Respiratory Alkalosis?
|
7.5-7.6
|
|
During hyperventilation, the respiratory center in the medulla oblongata is?
|
depressed
|
|
Hyperventilation is reversed by?
|
rebreathing
|
|
breathing in and out of a paper bag to increase CO2 and decrease pH is called?
|
rebreathing
|
|
this instrument measures the volume of air in/out of the lungs
|
spirometer
|
|
The normal amount of air that moves in/out with a breath
|
Tidal Volume (TV)
|
|
What three things affect Tidal Volume?
|
Age, Weight and sex
|
|
the amount of air that passes in/out of the lungs in one minute
|
Minute Respiratory Volume (MRV)
|
|
what is the formula to determine Minute Respiratory Volume (MRV)?
|
# of Resp/minute x TV= MRV
|
|
extra amount of air expired beyond Tidal Volume (TV)
|
Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV)
|
|
Most air in/out. Big breath in/Big breath out
|
Vital Capacity (VC)
|
|
what is the formula to determine Vital Capacity?
|
TV+ERV+IRV=VC
|
|
the most amount of air INTO the lungs

Inspiratory Capacity (IC)
|
|
what is the formula to determine Inspiratory Capacity (IC)
|
VC-ERV=IC
|
|
Extra air breathed in beyond the tidal volume (TV)
|
Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)
|
|
What is the formula to determine IRV?
|
IC-TV=IRV
|
|
Air that cannot be expelled from the lungs
|
Residual Volume (RV)
