Organization of the body: Axial and Appendicular
Axial: cranial, thoracic, abdominal
Appendicular: lower and upper limbs
Building blocks of the body:
cells -> tissues -> organs -> systems
4 types of tissue:
Epithelial, Connective (cartilage and bone), Muscular, Nervous
Epithelial tissue
Flexible layer of cells with minimal extra-cellular matrix.
Location: surface of body and lining of internal organs
Examples: skin; lining of mouth and larynx; lining of esophagus
and stomach
Function: to serve as barrier
Cartilage tissue
Hyaline cartilage is firm but slightly bendable;
white-bluish in color; found in the larynx, thorax,
and between bones.
Fibrous cartilage contains both white/firm fibers
and yellow/flexible fibers; found in the
intervertebral discs and the joint of the jaw.
Elastic (“yellow”) cartilage is the most flexible
because it contains elastic fibers; bendable, but
rebounds back in place after being moved; found
in the pinna (outer ear) and epiglottis.
Bone tissue
(strong & rigid), with dense extra-cellular matrix
made up of inorganic salts to provide structure.
Muscular tissue
Description: collection of specialized cells that contract
Location: throughout the body
Function: ability to contract
Nervous tissue
Description: collection of specialized cells for electrochemical
communication that can receive information and/or send
information by nerve impulses.
Location: Central and peripheral nervous systems
Characteristics of voluntary muscles:
Arranged in “striped” bundles
Under voluntary control
Can only actively contract (passively relax)
Motor Unit

Nerve, neuromuscular joint, muscle fiber

Right: 3 Lobes (superior, middle, inferior), shallower angle
Structure and function of pleural lining
Structure: fluid producing membrane lining the lungs. visceral (lungs) and parietal (thorax).

Function: Surface tension holds two linings together, forming an airtight, but freely sliding seal. This seal means that when the thoracic cavity expands, the lungs are stretched.

Boyle's Law
Pressure and Volume are inversely related:
Increased volume means decreased pressure, and vice versa.
Lung Pressure
Pressure (cm H2O) is the force of air exerted over the area of the "container"
Positive force = build up of air
Negative force = lack of air
Developmental changes in respiratory system
Size (Thoracic cavity outgrows lungs, Airpassages grow in diameter and length)
Residual Volume (Infants have none, adults do)
Respiratory rate (significantly higher for infants, slowed at five, and then developed in adults)
Tidal Volume
Amount of air exchanged in one cycle of quiet breathing.
Inspiratory Reserve Volume
Amount of air inhaled beyond tidal inhalation.
Expiratory Reserve Volume
Amount of air inhaled beyond tidal exhalation.
Residual Volume
Amount of air left in the lungs after maximal exhalation.
Vital Capacity
Amount of air that can be inhaled after maximal inhalation.

(ERV + TV + IRV)
Inspiratory Capacity
Amount of air that can be inhaled after tidal exhalation.

(TV + IRV)
Functional Residual Capacity
Amount of air remaining after tidal exhalation.

(ERV + RV)
Total Lung Capacity
Total amount of air in lungs available for gas exchange.
Differences between breathing for speech/life
1.voluntary/involuntary
2. Muscles may be involved in speech, versus tidal breathing
3. % of cycle used for inhalation/exhalation

Speech: 10/90
Life: 60/40

Movement in Inhalation
Ribs move up and out
Sternum moves up and forward
Diaphragm pulls down on plurae, pushes on abdominal viscera
Movement in Exhalation
Natural recoil (bones return to resting position and diaphragm relaxes)
Volume:
Objective measure of amount of air in lungs.
Capacity
Functional combinations of volumes that reflect physiological needs.
Checking action
forces muscles of inhalation to slowly release in speech breathing.
Subglottal pressure
required to vibrate vocal cords and produce speech. <3 cm H2O

We can alter volume and intonation by varying pressure.
