Respiratory System & urinary ;/ Flashcards
Lab order the lower respiratory system
- larynx
- trachea
- lungs
- bronchi
- bronchioles
- alveoli
Primary Respiratory system functions (2)
- supply oxygen to cells
- eliminate 02
air-
21% is oxygen
78% nitrogen
16% breathed out
Histology of air flow
External nares (non kert stratified squamous & olfactory mucous membrane)
CPCE (ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium also has some goblet.
can be found on nasla conchae, pharynx, glottis, larynx, trachea
Larynx contains these cartilages
thyroid, cricoid(360 below thyroid),
arytenoid
&
corniculate
Bronchioles (histology)
no cartilage, walls contain smooth muscle. inside lining is CPCE
Respiratory bronchioles (histology)
simple cuboidal epithelium. nonciliated- so debris particles at this level of respiratory system are removed by macrophages.
Alveolar Ducts & sacs (histology)
Simple squamous epithelia cells (SSEC)
Loop of henle does what?
reabsorbs 15% water, 30% filtered K+, 20%na, 35% cl-
99% of glomerular filtrate is what?
water, glucose, amino acids, ca, na, k, cl
Functions of tubular secretion
- rids body of drugs or wastes
- controls ph by secreting H+ or decreasing HC03.
**H+ might combine with nh3 to make nh4
Venules
deoxygenated
Nephrons
aka glomerular capillaries (inbetween AA & EA)
2 types of nephrons
80% short cortical
20% juxtamedullary long
JGA
crossroads between ascending loop & DCT and AA
Macula densa
monitor blood pressure (NA & CL)
Low BP
- JC cells release renin
- Renin combos with inactive angiotensinogen(liver) which combined converts to…
- angiotensin I converted by ACE (in lungs?)
- angiotensin II cuaes adrenal cortex to secrete
- aldosterone increases reabsorption of Na+ & water which increases BP
