What are five basic functions of the respiratory system?
1.) Acquisition of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide from the bloodstream.

2.) Production of sound (vocalization) through the passing of expired air over the vocal chords.

3.) The production of non-reflexive air movements such as coughing and sneezing to remove blockages from the air passages.

4.) Regulation of acid/alkaline concentration.

5.) Regulation of blood pH.

What is the collective name for movement of air into and out of the lungs?
The collective name for inspiration and expiration is pulmonary ventilation.
What is the collective name for the movement of oxygen into the bloodstream from the lungs/the movement of carbon dioxide into the lungs from the bloodstream?
The collective name for this movement of oxygen/carbon dioxide is external respiration.
When shipping ammunition, the bill of lading must be kept ____ days after the carrier accepts the material.
375 days
(Trans of Freight, 5-2)
Collective term for movement of oxygen from lungs to cells/carbon dioxide from cells to the lungs.
The general term for this movement of oxygen/carbon dioxide is internal respiration.
Describe the respective processes of inspiration and expiration.
Inspiration (inhalation):
ACTIVE process that requires output of energy. Air flows into the lungs when the pressure in the lungs falls below atmospheric pressure. When this occurs, the diaphragm moves downward and flattens while the intercostal and pectoralis minor muscles contract.
Expiration (exhalation):
PASSIVE process that takes advantage of the recoil properties of elastic fibers. The intercostal and pectoralis minors relax and the diaphragm moves up and relaxes. Expiration occurs when pressure inside of the lungs exceeds atmospheric pressure.
Name the following breathing processes.

1.) Temporary cessation of breathing.

2.) Labored, gasping breathing; shortness of breath

3.) Normal breathing

4.) Increased rate and depth of breathing in response to exercise, pain, or other conditions

5.) Increased pulmonary ventilation in response to an excess of metabolic demand

6.) Reduced pulmonary ventilation

7.) Dyspnea while lying down

8.) Permanent cessation of breathing

9.) Accelerated respiration
1.) Apnea
