Name the parts of the upper respiratory system

Nose and Nasal cavity, Pharnyx

Name the parts of the lower respiratory system

Larnyx, Trachea, Bronchi (us), Lungs, Bronchioles, Alveoli

What are the fx of the upper respiratory system? (5)

Provide area for gas exchange, moving air to and from exchange surfaces, protect, produce sound, facilitate olfactory stimuli

The Larnyx surrounds the _______
Epiglottis
The ________ covers the naso pharnyx when swallowing
soft palate
The 3 cartilages that make up the larnyx are
Thyroid, epiglottis, cricoid
The 2 sets of folds that span the epiglottis are the______ folds and the _______ folds?
Vestibular, Vocal
What is the fx of the T2 alveolar cells
Decrease surface tension of alveoli to keep them open so they don't collapse after each breath
Outside the lung the Bronchi are called ____________ (1), in the lungs they are divided into two smaller branches called ___________________(2). Each primary bronchus divides to form _____________________ (3), in each lung they to to one lobe, and the the lefg has 1, next it then branches off to form _____________________(4)
1) Extrapulmonary Bronchi, 2) Intrapulmonary Bronchi, 3) Secondary Bronchi, 4) Tertiary Bronchi
What are the 4 phases of Repiration and what is happening at each phase
Vetilation-o2 into alveoli, external respiration-02 into blood, internal respiration-o2 into cell, Cellular respiration-o2 into Mitochondria
How is 02 and CO2 transported

O2 is carried by RBC's bound to Hemoglobin, and CO2 is either dissolved in plasma, bound as Carbaminohemoglobin, or converted to carbonic acid

Boyle's law
if V increases P decreases
Name 3 disorders affecting compliance
Emphysema, lung cancer, CF
What happens when we inhale
our intercostal musles expand, our lungs open and the diaphram drops and air moves in
What part of brain controls Voluntary breathing?
Cerebral cortex
What part does the pons play in respirtations
deep breaths, sleep, exhalation rate
What part of the brain controls the rhythm at which we breathe and how?

Medulla by stumulating the phrenic nerve in the diaphram and intercostals

Define Tidal Volume
When the amount of air moved into lungs is equal to amount of air moved out of lungs during a measurment of intrapulmonary pressure
The enzymatic breakdown of large molecules into their basic building blocks is called
chemical digestion
The outer layer of the digestive tract is known as the
Serosa
Double sheets of perioneum that provide support and stability for the organs of the perioneal cavity are the
Mesenteries
Most of the digestive tract is lined by_____epithelium
simple columnar
Regional movements that occur in the small intestine and function to churn and fragment the digestive material are called
segmentation
A branch of the portal vein, hepatic arter, and tributary of the bile duct form the
portal areas
Bile release from the gallbladder into the duodenum occurs only under the stimulation of
Choleycystokinin
The major functions of the large intestine are
reabsorbtion of water and compaction of feces, absorption of vitamins, storage of fecal material prior to defecation
Three vitamins generated by bacteria in the colon are
Vit K, Biotin, and pantothenic acid
The final enzymatic steps in the digestive process are accomplished by
Brush border enzymes of the microvilli
