Answer 17

larynx

Question 18

extends anterior to the esophagus, remains open for swallowing, and has ciliated epithelium lining, and flexible w c-shaped cartilage “rings”

Answer 18

trachea

Question 19

clusters of alveoli

Answer 19

alveolar sacs

Question 20

Answer 20

alveoli

Question 21

soft, spongy, cone-shaped that are surrounded by the pleural membranes and are separated by the heart/pericardium and other organs of the mediastinum

Answer 21

lungs

Question 22

Answer 22

• visceral
• parietal
• pleural cavity

Question 23

name the two types of breathing mechanism

Answer 23

• inspiration

- expiration

Question 24

amount of extra air that can be breathed in

Answer 24

inspiratory reserve

Question 25

amount of air that moves in and out in a normal respiratory cycle

Answer 25

tidal volume

Question 26

amount of extra air that can be breathed out

Answer 26

expiratory reserve

Question 27

amount of air that stays in the lungs

Answer 27

residual volume

Question 28

the largest amount of air that can be breathed out

Answer 28

vital capacity

Question 29

vital capacity plus residual volume

Answer 29

total lung capacity

Question 30

what are the 3 things that affect breathing?

Answer 30

- chemical (chemoreceptors) - lung tissue stretching - emotions

Question 31

name the 2 chemicals (chemoreceptors) that affect breathing

Answer 31

- oxygen | - carbon dioxide

Question 32

why does oxygen play a minor role in breathing?

Answer 32

you have plenty of it in your blood

Question 33

where does the alveolar gas exchange take place?

Answer 33

through the alveolar and capillary walls

Question 34

the diffusion of gases from areas of higher partial pressure to lower partial pressure

Answer 34

alveolar gas exchange

Question 35

where does oxygen diffuse during alveolar gas exchange?

Answer 35

into the capillaries

Question 36

where does carbon dioxide diffuse during alveolar gas exchange?

Answer 36

into the alveoli

Question 37

name the two ways gas can be transported

Answer 37

- oxygen | - carbon dioxide

Question 38

when can oxygen be more easily released from hemoglobin

Answer 38

- carbon dioxide levels increase - blood becomes more acidic - temperature increases

Question 39

what does oxygen form w hemoglobin during gas transport?

Answer 39

oxyhemoglobin

Question 40

7% of carbon dioxide is transported as dissolved carbon dioxide during gas transport in the what?

Answer 40

plasma

Question 41

23% of carbon dioxide transported combine w amino groups of hemoglobin which forms what?

Answer 41

carbaminohemoglobin

Question 42

70% of carbon dioxide is transported as what ion?

Answer 42

bicarbonate ions

Question 43

what enzyme does bicarbonate use to form carbonic acid?

Answer 43

carbonic anhydrase

Question 44

dissociate into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions then is transported to the plasma

Answer 44

carbonic acid
