Q

In insects what delivers oxygen to body cells

23
Q

How does gases move through insects

A

Spiracle to trachea to tracheole

24
Q

Spiracle

A

Opening for air

25
What animals use lungs
Amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals
26
How can air enter our bodies
Nose or mouth
27
What is the path of air into our bodies
Nostril, nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus, bronchiole
28
Diaphragm
Dome shaped muscle that helps breathing
29
Alveoli
Tiny air filled sacs where gas exchange occur in humans
30
Oxygenated blood
Higher concentration of o2 than co2
31
Deoxygenated blood
Higher in co2 than o2
32
When we breathe in what happens to our thoracic cavity
The thoracic cavity increase creates a pressure that pulls airs in lungs
33
What happens when the rib cage when we breathe
Rib cage expands and rib muscles contract
34
What happens diaphragm when we breathe
Contacts (moves down and becomes flat)
35
What is negative pressure breathing
Air is pulled into lungs
36
Negative pressure breathing is exhibited by what and what group doesn’t use negative pressure breathing
Reptiles, birds, and mammals but not amphibians (pushed into lungs)
37
When we breathe out what happens to rib cage
Rib cage gets smaller an ribs muscles relax
38
What happens to volume of thoracic cavity when breathing out
Volume decreases
39
What happens to diaphragm when breathing out
It relaxes and moves up (becoming dome shaped)
40
How does oxygen move from the lungs to the rest of the body
Co2 and o2 move down their concentration gradient from the regions of higher to lower concentrations
41
Oxygenated blood in the alveoli of the lungs move where
From the alveoli of the lungs to the heart from the heart to the rest of the tissue
42
Deoxygenated blood move from the heart to
The the alveoli in the lungs
43
Tissue cells have what type of concentrations (o2 and co2)
Have lower concentration of o2 and higher in co2
44
What carries the gases around in the blood
Hemoglobin
45
Hemoglobin
Protein that transport o2 and co2, or carbon monoxide and other gases
46
Each red blood cell has about how many HB molecules
250 million
47
1 hemoglobin has how many peptide chains and can transport how many molecules
4 and can transport how many molecules of o2
48
Why is carbon monoxide is dangerous to us
It binds more strongly to hemoglobin than o2 causing us to no longer making atp and cells can’t survive
49
How do we know when to breathe
When major blood vessels signals the medulla obliongota due to changes in pH
50
How does a fetus breathe
Human fetus does not breathe with its lungs, it exchanges gases with maternal blood in the placenta
51
What attracts more o2 than adult hemoglobin
Fetal hemoglobin
52
At birth what increases in fetal blood
Co2 and breathing control center imitate breathing
53
What happens to the lungs when people smoke
Destroyed alveoli and reduced surface area for gas exchange
