week 6-9 review Flashcards
(26 cards)
Cause of low CO2
hyperventilation
Vital capacity
amount person can exhale
What type of joint is between maxilla and teeth?
Gomphosis
Gomphosis is a type of fibrous joint that anchors the teeth into the jawbone.
What allows for nutrients to reach inside the bone?
Volkman’s channels
Volkman’s channels, also known as perforating canals, are small channels in the bone that allow blood vessels and nerves to travel.
Over time the epiphysis and __________ merge.
Epiphyseal line
The epiphyseal line is the remnant of the growth plate and indicates that growth has ceased.
What encases the fascicles in muscle fibers?
Perimysium
Perimysium is a connective tissue sheath that surrounds bundles of muscle fibers, providing support and protection.
Forced vital capacity
maximum person can exhale under forced conditions
Tidal volume
normal volume of breath in and out
amount of air remaining in lungs after maximal expiration; amount of air that cannot be exhaled
residual volume
maximum amount of air lungs can hold after full, deep inhalation; includes residual volume
total lung capacity
irritants in what part of the airway causes coughing
irritants in trachea and airway
What is it called when there is adequate ventilation but poor alveolar perfusion
dead space ventilation
upper respiratory mucosa
warm, filter, humidify, immune defense, sensory functions
what kind of joint is the pubic symphysis (very limited movement)
amphiarthrotic (amphiarthrosis)
- pubic symphysis
- intervertebral discs
what kind of joint is immovable
synthrosis
- skull
- gomphosis: teeth in sockets
freely moveable joints
diarthrosis
blood clot breaks free and travels through the bloodstream
embolus
blood clot that forms in blood vessel and remains there
thrombus
tetralogy of fallot
- ventricular septal defect
- pulmonary stenosis
- overriding aorta
- right ventricular hypertrophy
functions of pericardial sac (2)
- Shields heart from trauma, infections and inflammation
- Anchors heart in position, preventing excessive damage
elevated SBP with normal DBP
isolated systolic hypertension
frank-starling law
- the relationship between the force of heart contraction and the initial length of the myocardial fibers
- an increase in end-diastolic volume leads to stronger contraction and increased stroke volume
how much blood flow do the kidneys receive per minute
1000-1200 mL
what is cryptorchidism
one or both of the testes fail to descend from the abdomen into the scrotum
