Q

It is supported by bone and cartilage. It provides an entrance for air.

17
Q

Hair in the nose that filters air

18
Q

It separates the two nostrils

A

Nasal septum

19
Q

It is posterior to the nose. Its cavity has passageways. It is lined with mucous membrane and help increase the surface area available to warm and filter incoming air.

A

Nasal cavity

20
Q

Air filled spaces in skull. It is open to nasal cavity. It is also lined with mucus. Its functions are to lighten the skull and to personate the voice

21
Q

It is where food and air pass through. It helps produce speech sounds.

22
Q

Flap of tissue that opens and closes when food/air enters the body

A

Epiglottis

23
Q

It is between the pharynx and trachea. It prevents particles from entering the trachea.

24
Q

Changing tension controls pitch

A

Vocal chords

25
It is anterior to esophagus. It extends to the thoracic cavity. It separates to the right and left bronchi. The inner wall is lined with cilia and mucus
Trachea
26
How many cartiginous rings does the trachea have?
20
27
It is filled with capillaries. Where gas exchange happens.
Alveoli
28
How air enters your body. Branched tubes leading from trachea to alveoli.
Bronchial tree
29
It is separated by the mediastinum. It is enclosed by diaphragm and thoracic cage (ribs).
Lungs
30
How many lobes does the RIGHT lung have?
3
31
How many lobes does the LEFT lung have?
2
32
It is the fluid that covers the lungs. It protects the lungs from bones (ribs) since the lungs are delicate
Pleura
33
Flow of air into lungs. Diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract.
Inhilation/Inspiration
34
Air leaving lungs. As muscles relax, air is pushed out of lungs.
Exhalation
