Test Four Respiratory Flashcards
(39 cards)
Function of type one pneumocytes
Responsible for gas exchange, simple squamous
What does bronchioles depend on to sustain wall diameter
Smooth muscle e
Dendritic brush cells are
Sensory cells
What is located in trachea
Hyaline cartilage, smooth muscle (trachealis), fibroelastic cartilage at end of caritlage, mucous glands
Epi of bronchi
Respiratory epi
The interstium next to alveoli contains
Capillaries, elastic and reticular fibers, fibroblast and macrophages
Epi of trachea
Respiratory
Immature brush cells are
Parent cells of goblet cells
Epi of alveolar duct
Simple squamous with smooth muscle
What is found in bronchi
Mucus glands and lymphoid nodules
What is located in the epi of the bronchi
Isolated hyaline cartilage plates that decrease as move into lung
What significant thing in respiratory bronchiole
Saccular aveoli outpockets lined with simple squamous for gas exchange
What cells are present in alveolar duct
Type two pneumocytes
What supports the alveolar duct
Elastic and collagen fibers
Small granular cells are
APUD and responsible for control of respiratory system
The respiratory system is made up of
Lungs and a system of tubes linking the sites of gas exchange to external environment
The respiratory epithelium is
Pseudostratified columnar with cilia
Epi of respiratory bronchioles
Ciliated cuboidal with clara cells, smooth muscle and elastic tissue
Describe epi of bronchiole
Upper portion contains respiratory epi with mucous glands and lower portion going to have simple cuboidal
The respiratory zone has what
Increased surface area for gas exchange
Function of ciliated columnar cells
Protection of respiratory system and help move mucous form deep to oral cavity
Trachea is part of what system
Conducting
What are Clara cells
Cuboidal shaped, no cilia, apical granules
Respiratory bronchioles are part of what system
Respiratory
