Q

_______ (replacement of functional tissue with scar tissue) decreases the gas exchange surface area thus decreases diffusion of oxygen into the blood

24
Q

Anemia
32
Dissolved CO2___ is dissolved in the plasma

36
Nervous Control of Respiration (3)
1. Medullary Rhythmicity Area 2.Pneumotaxic Area 3. Apneustic Area
37
_______ voluntary alteration of breathing pattern, such as speaking, singing or holding our breath, which is a protective mechanism initiated against bad odors or particles in the air
Cerebral Cortex Influences;
38
______ chemoreceptors are sensitive to changes in chemicals
Chemical Regulation;
39

central chemosensitive area
40
_______: located in carotid bodies and aortic body; sensitive to O2, CO2, pH of blood
peripheral chemoreceptors
41

carotid bodies:
42
______a cluster of chemoreceptors in the region near the arch of the aorta
aortic body:
43
______ increased pCO2 in arterial blood; above 40 mmHg which results in increased concentration of H+
Hypercapnia:
44
Input from central and peripheral chemoreceptors will______ to become active and thus will increase the rate and depth of breathing
stimulate the inspiratory area
45
______ decreased pCO2 in arterial blood; below 40 mmHg
Hypocapnia:
46
Central and peripheral chemoreceptors are not stimulated when levels are this low and thus, __________________
