Q

Respiratory Tract sequence of Upper Respiratory

A

Nose→Nasal cavity→Nasopharynx→Oropharynx→Laryngopharynx

17
Q

Respiratory Tract Sequence of Lower Respiratory

A

Larynx→Trachea→Bronchi→Bronchiles→Alveoli→Capillaries of lungs

18
Q

What is the purpose of the epiglottis?

A

reroutes food away from the respiratory system and toward the digestive system

19
Q

What is the surface over which gases are exchanged?

A

respiratory membrane

20
Q

What contains elastic cartilage and is above the glottis?

A

epiglottis

21
Q

What are the components of the respiratory membrane?

A

Capillary endothelium, basal lamina of endothelium, basal lamina of alveolar endothelium, and alveolar endothelium

22
Q

What type of resistance does pulmonary circulation have?

A

low reisistance

23
Q

What delievers deoxygenated blood to lungs from the right side of the heart?

A

arteries

24
Q

What returns oxygenated blood to the left side of the heart, which is distributed to the body?

A

veins

25
Q

What travels beside connective tissue with lower conductive airways?

A

arteries

26
Q

What is distanced from the arteries and lower conductive airways?

A

veins

27
Q

What contains the voice box?

A

larynx

28
Q

What are included in the walls of the larynx?

A

include thyroid and cricoid cartilage that provide patency

29
Q

What contains elastic cartilage and reroutes food away from the respiratory system and toward the digestive system?

A

epiglottis

30
Q

What is the slit like opening that leads to the trachea?

A

Glottis

31
Q

Upper false vocal cords that are lined with respiratory epithelium

A

Vestibular folds

32
Q

What are vocal folds?

A

lower covered in nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium to handle wear and tear of use

33
Q

What modulates the production of sound in the vocal folds?

A

vocalis muscle

34
Q

What is a phagocytic cells that are not part of the wall that scavenge particulate matter, attack pathogens, and recruit WBC’s?

A

alveolar macrophage

35
Q

What is a squamous cell that provides structure, facilitate gas exchange, and increase surface area?

A

type I cells

36
Q

What is a rounded, foamy cell that secretes surfactant?

A

Type II

37
Q

What is the purpose of surfactant?

A

prevents respiratory collapse through lowering surface tension
