Q

what do the structures in the conducting portion do to air

A

Q

the lamina propria is vascular why in the respiratory part of the nasal cavity

A

because it has long venous plexuses so that it is able to effectively warm the air coming in

25
supportin cells are also called?
sustentacular cells
26
what cells in the olfactory section posess muclei that are more apically located than the other two cells
sustentacular cells aka. supporting
27
what cells have prominent microvilli and a prominent terminal web
the sustentacular cells
28
what olfactory cell group rests on the basal lamina and do not extend to the surface , they also for an incomplete layer of cells
the basal cells
29
which of the 3 olfactory cells are believed to be regenerative for all three-cell types
basal cells (they serve as stem cells)
30
what does the lamina propria in the olfactory mucosa have
- bowman's glands - many veins - unmyelinated nerves
31
what connects the pharynx to the trachea
the larynx
32
what is the skeleton of the larynx made of?
hyaline cartilages and elastic cartilages
33
what has striated muscles in the wall and also has connective tissues with glands
larynx
34
what provides the means for sounds of different frequencies to be produced?
vocal cords
35
which vocal cords have skeletal muscle (vocalis), vocal ligament and a covering of stratified squamous nonkeratinzed epithelium
true vocal cords
36
what is formed by a band of elastic fibers
vocal ligament
37
why are the true vocal cords covered by stratified sqaumous nonkeratinized epithelium
because there is frequent movement in these vocal cords
38
when does the epithelium change to respiratory epitherlium/
at the base of the epiglottis after the vocal cords
39
what lines air passages down through trachea and primary bronchi
respiratory epithelium
40
what are also known as false vocal cord
vestibular fold
41
what lies superior to the true vocal cord
vestibular vocal cord
42
what is the vestibular fold
it is a fold of loose connective tissue that has glands and lymphoid aggregateions
43
what is the false vocal cord covered with
resp. epithelium
44
what supports the walls of the trachea and extrapulmonary bronchi?
hylaine cartilage
45
what is the hyaline cartilage like in the trachea
c shaped and open posteriorly
46
what runs in the open posterior location of the hyaline cartilage in the trachea
trachealis muscle
47
what does the trachialis do
helps to prevent over distension during inhilation
48
what is superior and inferior to the hylain catrilage c shaped rings
fibroelastic CT, helps to elongate the trachea durring inhalation
49
what are the 4 cell types in respiratory epithelium
- ciliated cells - mucous cells(small mucous cell and mature goblet cells) - enteroendocrine cells ( APUD)
50
in the ciliated cell of the resp. epith. the cilia do what
protect the lungs from being damaged if something in inhaled specifically it traps the material and the goblet cells make mucous and send the partical to the mouth
51
what has long, activley motile extensions that beat towards the pharynx
ciliated cells ( thier cilia)
52
ciliated cells contain microvilli as well, why?
so that fluid can be absorbed and not clog the airway
53
what are the two types of mucous cells in resp. epith?
- small mucous granule cells " brush cell" | - mature goblet cells
54
why are small mucous cells sometimes called brush cells
because of the many microvili they have
55
what activley divide and may be able to replace desquamated cells, might be able to become a goblet cell
brush cells
56
wat has small numbers of mucous granules
brush cells
57
what is filled with large mucous droplets that are secreted to trap inhaled particles
goblet cells
58
what cells rest on the basal lamina and DO NOT extend to the lumen? these are the cells that make the epithelium pseudostratifed
short basal cells STEM
59
what resp. epith cells can divide
short basal cells
60
what cells have many small granules in their basal cytoplas
APUD | enteroendocrine cells
61
what cells participate in paracrine regualtion on other cells
APUD cells
62
what is it called when a cell ( APUD) regulates a cell next to it
pararcrine regulation
63
various enteroendocrine cells synthesize what
different polypeptide hormones
64
what is the thick layer that underlies the epithelium
basement membrane
65
the thin layer that lies under te basment membrane is called
lamina propria
66
what separates the lamina propria from the submucosa
elastic fibers that run longitudinally
67
what kind of glands are in the submucosa of the trachea
seromucous glands
68
what forms the outer layer of the trachea
adventita, which has c shaped hyaline cartilage
69
intapulmonary bronchi is also called what
secondary bronchi
70
what arises from the subdivision of the primary bronchi and divide many times
intrapulmonary bronchi
71
what is in the walls of the intrapulmonary bronchi
irregular cartilage plates
72
lumen of intrapulmonary bronchi is lined by?
resp. ept
73
what seperates the lamina propria from the submucousa in the intrapulmonary bronchi
layers of spiraling smooth muscle
74
glands in the submucosa of the intrapulmonary bronchi are
seramucous
