    Air Capacity Lab Report

    • 3 Pages

    I choose this experiment because my favorite science term and once you learn it’s pretty easy.This cannot be an impact to normal people but for example singers they have bigger lungs that’s, how they hit those higher notes that non singer can’t do.But why do they have more air capacity?Well one of those techniques is that they always stretch their lungs by singing.Non-singers for example all they do is talk so they don’t get enough stretch,if they were to do the exercise they’re lung more they…

    Cardiorespiratory System

    • 959 Words
    • 4 Pages

    human body’s cardiovascular and respiratory systems must integrate and adapt to changing conditions—especially during incremental increases in submaximal exercise to maximal exercise. The coordination of cardiovascular and respiratory systems coalesce to form what is known as the cardiorespiratory system (Lotric & Stefanovska, 2000). Within muscle cells there are extremely limited stores for anaerobic energy; thus, a well-coordinated cardiovascular and respiratory system must be maintained to…

    Pulmonary Physiology

    Pulmonary Physiology and Disorders One of the main purposes of respiration is gas exchange. The physiological definition of respiration differs from the biochemistry definition of respiration. Physiology defines respiration as movement of air, more specifically oxygen, from the environment to the cells in the body. Biochemistry defines respiration as the metabolic process by which cells utilize glucose and oxygen to produce Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). Inspiration, which is an active part of…

    Volume (AMV) and Extended Mandatory Minute Ventilation (EMMV). MMV can be categorized as volume controlled (VC)-IMV with adaptive and set-point targeting schemes. This mode guarantees the patient will receive a minimum minute volume based the set respiratory rate and tidal volume. Thus, the set breathing rate is the maximum number of mandatory breaths a patient can receive (Chatburn, Khatib, Mireles-Cabodevila, 2014). Furthermore, if the patient is able to breath spontaneously above the set rate…

    metabolic consumption and ATP production. There are limited means of oxygen storage in the tissues; as such a continuous supply of oxygen is required. The respiratory and cardiovascular systems work together to make sure oxygen is delivered throughout the body, and that these continuous requirements are met. Exploring the main role of the respiratory system in this process and its relationship with the cardiovascular system is best explained in 4 main steps. 1. “Uptake in the lungs 2. Carrying…

    The study of anatomy and physiology. Anatomy is the scientific term for the study of the body structure and physiology is the term for the study of the function of the body’s organs. During the class, we dissected a pig. We did it to compare the human body and its organ systems with the pig body because they are similar in function. We defined each system and the organs that belong to each one. In anatomy and physiology class we learn about the human body and its composition. To see and learn…

    Breathing is not just a matter of breathing through inspiration and expiration. Abnormal breathing patterns deals with the absent of breath sounds at certain times and the presence of normal breath sounds in certain areas where they are normally not heard. There are different types of abnormal breathing patterns that are caused with certain illnesses such as Cheyne-Stokes respiration, Kussmaul breathing, Biot’s respiration, apnea, paradoxical breathing and apneustic breathing. There are…

    The Respiratory System

    • 2368 Words
    • 10 Pages

    The respiratory system is a vital factor of gas exchange due to its structure. The structure provides an efficiency to the process due gas exchange requiring an efficient system. Gas exchange requires an efficient system because it is a process through which blood circulates around the body, collects oxygen, delivers the oxygen to the organs that require it and releases carbon dioxide. Oxygen enters the body, and carbon dioxide exits the body in opposite the direction. Gas exchange occurs across…

    I. Introduction The human respiratory system allows cells to have indirect contact with the external environment through gas exchange. This association permits cells to exchange metabolic by-products like carbon dioxide for oxygen. These oxygen molecules are a vital component for cellular metabolism and ATP production. Furthermore, the function of the respiratory system also encompasses homeostatic regulation of pH levels based on partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Changes are…
