Q

what connects the URT and LRT

21
Q

bronchi are part of the ___________

conducting airways

22
Q

does gas exchange occur in the bronchi

23
Q

what does the respiratory zone consist of/

A

respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli

24
Q

type 1 alveolar cells

A

alveolar structure

25
type 2 alveolar cells
surfactant production
26
what do conducting airways do
move air from ext environment to areas of gas exchange
27
terminal respiratory units are also called
acini
28
what do the pores of kohn do
allow air to pass btwn alveoli so air is distributed evenly
29
this forms the blood air barrier
capillary and alveolus
30
alveolar capillary unit?
site of gas exchange in lungs
31
what does the alveolar capilllary membrane consist of
alveolar epithelium, alveolar bsmt membrane, interstitial space, capillary epithelium, capillary bsmt membrane,
32

hilus
34
draining pulm veins are ______ from the airways
distant
35
boyles law says....
airflow depends on the pressure gradient and flows from high to low
36
during ______, atmospheric pressure is higher than presser in alveoli
inspiration
37
during ______, alveoli pressure is higher than pressure in atmosphere
expiration
38
