What are the four phases of respiration?
1) Pulmonary ventilation
2) External respiration
3) Trasportation of respiratory gases
4) Internal respiration
Define pulmonary respiration
air is pulled into lungs
Define external respiration
gas exchange in the lungs
Define internal respiration
gas exchange in the tissues
In what region of the tissues does internal respiration occur?
in the capillary region
What is the purpose of the nose in respiration?
warms and moistens the air
Pharynx
common pathway for food and air
Larynx
directs food and air (epiglottis)
Trachea
carries air into lungs
What is the purpose of the broncial tree in respiration?
brings gas into lung lobes
The trachea branches into the ________ and the _________ _______.
branches into the bronchus and bronchial tree
Purpose of lungs
gaseous exchange
Which side of the lungs has an extra lobe?
right lung
Name the two main lung lobes in the dog
cranial and caudal
Name two functions of the pleural cavity.
1) decreases friction
2) provides vacuum to keep lungs inflated
The plerual cavity is bordered by
a visceral sac surrounding the lungs, filled by fluid
Name the 7 anatomical features of the respiratory system
1) Nose
2) Pharynx
3) Larynx
4) Trachea
5) Bronchial tree
6) Lungs
7) Pleural cavity
Name the 5 anatomical features of the lungs (path that air takes).
1) Trachea
2) Bronchus
3) Sm bronchi
4) Bronchioles
5) Alveolar Sacs
Describe the two phases of pulmonary ventilations
Inspiration- diaphragm contracts, chest cavity is bigger, pressure drops in lungs, air enters

Expiration- diaphragm relaxes, increases pressure, chest cavity returned to normal size
Name the three aspects of breathing mechanics.
A) Pulmonary ventilations
B) Pressure relationship in the thoractic cavity
C) Control of respiration
Name the two parts of the brain that control respiration.
1) Medullary respiration center (Medulla oblongata)

2) Pons respiration center
What does the Medullary respiration center control
controls basic breathing rythm
What does the Pons respiration center control?
alters breathing rate and pattern depending on what the body needs
Name 5 benefits of massage on the respiratory system
1) Reduces respiration rate
2) Strengthens respiratory muscles
3) Decreases asthma attacks
4) Increases fluid discharge from the lungs
5) Improves pulmonary function
