Q

Arytenoid cartilage

Study These Flashcards
A

Paired, A shape attached to corniculate

25
Cuneiform cartilage
Paired, bump on epiglottis base
26
Corniculate cartilage
Paired, tip of A shape attached to arytenoid
27
Vestibular fold
False vocal chord, superior
28
Vocal fold
True vocal chord, inferior
29
Carina
Ridge between branches of primary bronchi in trachea that directs air into bronchi
30
Hilum
Area of lungs where vessels, nerves, and primary bronchi enter/exit (in superior lobe)
31
Parietal pleura
Superficial, lines thoracic cavity
32
Pleural cavity
Between serous membranes
33
Visceral pleura
Inferior, lines lungs
34
Why are there two separate pleural cavities? (One for each lung)
Prevents/contains the spread of infection from one lung to another
35
Tension pneumothorax
(Collapsed lung) Air enters pleural space and can’t leave, from spontaneous or traumatic causes; puts pressure on lung, trachea, heart, etc
36
Atelectasis
Complete or partial collapse of a lobe of the lung; adhesive, obstructive, compressive
37
Respiratory membrane
Barrier between alveolar air and blood; alveolar cell, basement membrane, endothelial cell
38
Trachealis muscle
Smooth muscle between trachea and esophagus connecting tracheal cartilage; stabilizes trachea
39
Muscles used in forced inhalation
Diaphragm, external intercostals, sternocleidomastoid, scalenes, pectoralis minor
40
Muscles used in forced exhalation
Internal intercostals, external and internal obliques, transverse rectus abdominis
41
Muscles used in quiet inhalation
Diaphragm, external intercostals
42
Muscles used in quiet exhalation
None
43
Tidal volume
The amount of air inhaled and exhaled during normal breath (500 mL)
44
Inspiration Reserve Volume
The maximum amount of air inhaled after normal inhalation
45
Expiratory Reserve Volume
The maximum amount of air that be exhaled after normal exhalation
46
Residual Volume
The amount of air left in the lungs after max exhalation; prevents lung from collapsing
47
Inspiratory Capacity
IC = TV + IRV
48
Functional Residual Capacity
FRC = RV + ERV
49
Vital Capacity
VC = IRV + TV + ERV
50
Total Lung Capacity
TLC = IRV + TV + ERV + RV
51
Antibody/Immunoglobulin
Proteins that play a role in defense against antigens; antibody monomers composed to two heavy chains and two light chains of amino acids (5 classes are IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, IgM based on C regions)
52
Antigen
Any molecule that triggers an immune response (specifically the epitope regions) to stimulate production of antibodies; haptens can bind to host molecule to act as antigen
