Possesses a nasolabial planum

Q

Have nasal planum

A

small ruminants and dogs

24
Q

Features a rostral planum that is supported by a rostral bone.

25
Separated from the mouth by the hard and soft palates and separated into two isolated halves by a median nasal septum
Nasal cavity
26
Scroll-like; turbinate bones; dorsal and ventral; ethmoidal
Concha
27
Investing the ethmoidal conchae is the olfactory epithelium
Mucous membrane
28
Air passages; dorsal, middle, ventral, and common
Nasal meatus
29
Articulates with the palatine process of the maxillary bone
Vomer
30
Paranasal Sinuses
* Air-filled cavities that communicate with the nasal cavity * Probably provide some protection and to the head
31
4 Paranasal Sinuses
Maxillary, Frontal, Sphenoidal, and Palatine sinuses
32
a common soft tissue conduit for food and air, lying caudal to the oral and nasal cavities.
Pharynx
33
Conducts air into the lungs
Bronchus
34
is the process by which air is moved into (inspiration) and out of (expiration) the lungs.
Ventilation
35
Is a more specific term that refers to the movement of air into and out of alveoli.
Alveolar ventilation
36
Is a mechanism to dissipate heat; characterized by an increased ventilator rate but with a reduced tidal volume (volume of air moved during each breath).
Panting
37
Upper airways that are not sites of gas exchange
Anatomic dead space
38
Includes the anatomic dead space and any alveoli in which normal gas exchanges cannot occur
Physiologic dead space
39
The total rate of air-flow into and out of the lungs; includes the air- flow through the tracheobronchial tree and to both the functional alveoli and non-functional alveoli.
Minute ventilation rate
40
Refers to the rate of air-flow into and out of the functioning alveoli
Alveolar ventilation rate
41
Each alveolus is very closely associated with a network of capillaries containing deoxygenated blood from the pulmonary artery. The capillary and alveolar walls are very thin, allowing rapid exchange of gases by passive diffusion along concentration gradients.
Gas Exchange
42
Moves into the alveolus as the concentration is much lower in the alveolus than in the blood
CO2
43
Moves out of the alveolus as the continuous flow of blood through the capillaries prevents saturation of the blood
O2
44
Lungs are part of a unidirectional circuit that includes a series of non-respiratory (lacking gas exchange surfaces) air sacs and airflow is created by movements of the sternum rather than through contraction of a muscular diaphragm.
Avian Respiratory System
45
At the distal end of the trachea; first portion of the bronchi; avian organ of phonation
Syrinx
46
Unilobed; lie adjacent to and deeply imprinted by the thoracic vertebrae; 1° bronchus to 2° bronchus to parabronchus
Lungs
47
Are blind-ended expansions of the respiratory tree the walls of which are composed of connective tissue covered externally by serosa.
Air sacs
48
A median, unpaired, somewhat triangular air sac connected to the secondary bronchi of both lungs. It lies in between the angle of two limbs of the furcular (wishbone).
Interclavicular
49
Pair of small cervical air sacs arise anteriorly, one from each lung
Cervical
50
Arises from the side of each lung, lies at ventral side of lung in the anterior portion of the thorax
Anterior thoracic
51
A pair of small air sacs found in the posterior part of the thoracic cavity just in front of abdominal sacs
Posterior thoracic
52
A large air sac from the distal end of each lung
Abdominal
53
Gives off branches to air sacs and also gives off several secondary bronchi which may be distinguished as dorsal, ventral and lateral according to their position.
Mesobronchus
