27
What is the primary function of the nasal conchae?
To increase the surface are for warming, moistening, and filtering air
28
What is another name for the throat?
Pharynx
29
Which of the following structures is primarily responsible for the exchange of the gases(oxygen and carbon dioxide) in the lungs
Alveoli
30
The trachea is commonly known as the?
Windpipe
31
The epiglottis serves to?
prevent food from entering the trachea and during swallowing
32
During inhalation, the diaphragm?
Contracts and moves downward
33
During exhalation, the diaphragm?
Relaxes and moves upward
34
The mucosa is what?
Epithelial Tissue
35
The submucosa is what?
Connective tissue
36
The muscular is what?
Skeletal and smooth muscle
37
The serosa is what?
Outer membrane
38
Mechanical digestion involves:
The physical breakdown of food into smaller pieces
39
The enzyme that breaks down starch into glucose
Salivary amylase
40
Enzyme that breaks down certain bacteria?
Lysozyme
41
Dissolves food chemicals and allows for tasting?
H2O
42
Buffers food/ drink pH-neutralizes acidity of food/drink
Bicarbonate
43
Makes food slimy for easier swallowing?
Mucous
44
Which enzyme is responsible for the chemical digestion of proteins in the stomach?
Pepsin
45
Mechanical digestion in the stomach is primarily carried out by?
The charring and mixing action of smooth muscles
46
What breaks down peptides into amino acids
Peptidases
47
Break down lactose into glucose and galactose
Lactase
48
Breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose
Sucrose
49
Breaks down nucleic acids (DNAs and RNAs) into nucleotides
Nucleases
50
What is inhalation when breathing at rest
Ventilation aka breathing
51
The diaphragm and external intercostals contract, this expands chest cavities downward and outward which causes air pressure in lungs to decrease
Ventilation
52
What is I.t called when taking a deep breath
Forced inhalation
53
Forcibly blowing air out of the body
Forced exhalaction
54
Disease characterized by acute episodes of bronchoconstriction and airways inflammation
Asthma
55
COPD stands for what
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
56
Chronic airway inflammation, airways swell and fill with mucous
Bronchitis
57
Lost of lung elasticity, damaged alveoli fuse
Emphysema
58
Cerebral cortex's motor neurons are wired to our skeletal muscles that give rise to breathing
Control of ventilation-conscious control
59
Region of brainstem(in the medulla and pons)
control of ventilation-unconscious control
60
Hyperventilation
When there is increased co2, decreased o2 and or lower pH in blood
61
Hypoventilation
When there's decreased co2, increased o2 and or hight pH in blood
62
How is O2 transported in the blood
99% of O2 in the blood is bound to hemoglobin and 1% is dissolved in plama
63
What are the factors affecting how well O2 binds to hemogobin
Temp, CO2, and pH
64
How is CO2 transported in the blood
7% is dissolved in plasma, 23% is bound to hemoglobin and 70% is converted to bicarbonate(baking soda)
