Question 10

Upper Respiratory Tract Air Flow

Answer 10

• nostril or nares
• nasal cavity
• pharynx
• larynx
• trachea ( sometimes classified with lower respiratory tract)

Question 11

Lower Respiratory Tract

Answer 11

• Bronchi
• Bronchioles
• Alveoli

Question 12

Bronchi

Answer 12

• extrapulmonary
• intrapulmonary
• bifurcation

Question 13

extrapulmonary

Answer 13

outside the lungs

Question 14

Intrapulmonary

Answer 14

inside the lungs

Question 15

Bifurcation

Answer 15

where the bronchi split off the trachea

Question 16

Bronchioles

Answer 16

• increasingly smaller airways off the intrapulmonary bronchi

Question 17

Alveoli

Answer 17

• smallest airways
• where 02 and CO2 are exchanged

Question 18

Inhalation or inspiration

Answer 18

• breathing in

Question 19

exhalation or expiration

Answer 19

breathing out

Question 20

respiratory rate

Answer 20

• # respiration per minute
• one inspiration & one expiration = single respiration

Question 21

Dyspnea

Answer 21

difficulty breathing

Question 22

Apnea

Answer 22

not breathing

Question 23

Tachypnea

Answer 23

fast breathing

Question 24

bradypnea

Answer 24

slow breathing

Question 25

hypernea

Answer 25

increase rate or depth

Question 26

hypopnea

Answer 26

decrease rate or depth (slow or shallow)

Question 27

hyperventilation

Answer 27

hyperpnea > increase rate & depth - results in too much CO2 being expelled so body levels decrease

Question 28

Agonal breathing

Answer 28

respirations that occur at death

Question 29

Respiration

Answer 29

the exchange of 02 & CO2

Question 30

Ox/ i, ox/o, ox/y

Answer 30

oximeter oxyhemoglobin oxygen

Question 31

Capn/o = carbon dioxide

Answer 31

capnometer

Question 32

acid base balance pH

Answer 32

low pH- 1 Neutral - 7 Hi pH - 14

Question 33

Acidosis

Answer 33

a decrease in blood pH

Question 34

metabolic for acidosis

Answer 34

a decrease in blood pH due to metabolic factors (diabetic ketoacidosis)

Question 35

Respiratory for Acidosis

Answer 35

a decrease in blood pH due to an increase in blood levels of CO2 resulting from decreased ventilation - CO2 can build when you don't breath often enough

Question 36

Alkalosis

Answer 36

an increase in blood pH

Question 37

metabolic for alkalosis

Answer 37

a increase in blood pH due to metabolic factors (severe prolonged vomiting is a sign of decreased CI-)

Question 38

respiratory for alkalosis

Answer 38

an increase in blood pH due to a decrease in blood levels of CO2 resulting from increase ventilation ( you blow off too much CO2, if you breath too much)
