The Respiratory System
Karten in diesem Stapel (67)
- 1Give 2 functions of the Respiratory system regarding air.- Provides an extensive area for gas exchange between air & circulating blood.
- Moving air to & from the exchange surfaces of the lungs. - 2Give 2 functions of the respiratory system as a defense mechanism.- Protects respiratory surfaces from dehydration, temperature changes and other environmental variations.
- Defends respiratory system & other tissues from invasion by pathogenic microorganisms. - 32 General functions of the respiratory system-Assists in regulation of blood volume, blood pressure and control of body fluid pH.
- Produce sounds involved in speaking, singing or non-verbal communication. - 44 organs found in the upper respiratory system1. Nose
2. Nasal cavity
3. Paranasal sinuses
4. Pharynx - 5What is the responsibility of the upper respiratory system- Filters, warms a& humidifies air
- 64 organs that the Lower Respiratory system comprises of1. Larynx
2. Trachea
3. Bronchi
4. Lungs - 7Function of the Respiratory Tract- Consists of airways that carry air to & from exchange surfaces of lungs
- 8Where is the conducting portion found- Extends from entrance to nasal cavity to smallest bronchioles of lungs
- 9What does the Respiratory portion consist of- consists of respiratory bronchioles & Air sacs (alveoli)
- 10What happens when the air reaches the lung alveoli- Most foreign particles & pathogens have been removed due to filtering, warming & humidification of air due to properties of respiratory epithelium.
- 11What type of cells form the respiratory epithelium- Consists of pseudostratified, ciliated, columnar epithelium with goblet cells.
- 12Where are the epithelium cells found in the respiratory system- Lines entire respiratory tract except for finest conducting portions & alveoli
- 13What are the goblet cells and mucus glands behind the epithelium responsible for producingThey produce a sticky mucus that bathes exposed surface
- 14What happens in the nasal cavity- cilia sweeps any debris trapped in mucus or micro-organisms towards pharynx where it will be swallowed & exposed to enzymes & stomach acids
- 15Function of the nose- Is the primary passageway for air entering the respiratory system, it enters the paired nares that open into nasal cavity
- 16Is the portion of the nasal cavity contained within flexible tissues of external noseVestibule
- 17Function of the VestibuleHas coarse air that traps foreign particles
- 18Divides the nasal cavity into right & left halves- Nasal Septum
- 19What forms the bony portion of the nasal septumA perpendicular plate of ethmoid & vomer
- 20What forms the Anterior portions of the nasal septumHyaline Cartilage
- 21What forms the lateral & superior walls of the nasal cavityMaxillary bone
nasal bone
frontal bone
ethmoid bone
sphenoid bone - 22What Bones make up the lateral wall of the nasal cavityThe superior, middles & inferior conchae
- 23Describe what happens to the incoming air in the lateral wall of the nasal cavity- air flows between adjacent conchae
- incoming air bounces of conchae creating a turbulence which causes air particles to contact mucus in the cavity. - 24Function of turblunce-Promotes filtration
-Humidifying
-Warming - 25Incoming air that bounces of the nasal cavity causes____Turbulence
- 26What bones form the nasal cavity floor- Hard palate of maxillary and palatine bones
- 27Where does the nasal cavity open intoNasopharynx at internal nares
- 28Boundary line between superior nasopharynx and rest of the pharynx- Soft Palate
- 29Connects the nose, mouth and throat by the means of a common passageway-Pharynx
- 302 Systems that share the pharynx-Respiratory System
-Digestive System - 313 Regions of the Pharynx-Nasopharynx
- Oropharynx
- Laryngopharynx - 32Superior part of pharynx that is connected to the posterior portion of the nasal cavity via internal nares-Nasopharynx
- 33Separates the nasopharynx from the oral cavity- Soft Palate
- 34Is located on the posterior wall of the nasopharynx-Pharyngeal
- 35Name of the openings on the lateral walls of the nasopharynx- Auditory tubes
- 36Extends between soft palate & base of tongue at level of hyoid boneOropharynx
- 37Name of epithelium cells found at the boundary of the nasopharynx and oropharynx- Stratified Squamous Epithelium
- 382 Structure found in the soft palate- uvula
- 2 pairs pharyngeal arches - 39Names of pharyngeal arches- Anterior palatoglossal arch
-Posterior palatoglossal arch - 40What lies between the Anterior and Posterior palatoglossal arch-Palatine tonsil
- 41Portion of the pharynx that lies between the hyoid bone & entrance of the esophagus and is the most inferior part of pharynx-Laryngopharynx
- 42Lines the Laryngopharynx-Stratified Squamous Epithelium
- 43Between which vertebral levels does the Larynx lie- C4-C7
- 44The air that leaves the pharynx enters through a narrow opening known as the __.-Glottis
- 45Function of the Larynx-The Larynx surround and protects the glottis
- 46Larynx Components- Cartilaginous walls stabilized by ligaments and muscle
- 47Is the largest laryngeal cartilage and forms most of the anterior and lateral walls of larynx- Thyroid Cartilage
- 48Common name for laryngeal prominence-Adams Apple
- 49Structural aspect of Thyroid cartilage- the interior surface connected with cricoid.
- Superior surface has ligamentous attachments to epiglottis & other smaller laryngeal cartilages, - 50Is ring shaped and is posterior portion which provides support in absence of thyroid cartilage- Cricoid Cartilage
- 51Function of Cricoid & thyroid cartilage- Protects glottis & entrance to trachea.
- Broad surface provides sites for laryngeal muscles & ligaments. - 52Which surface of the cricoid articulates with arytenoid cartilage-Superior surface
- 53Is a leaf shaped structure that projects above the glottis and has attachments to thyroid cartilage & hyoid bone-Epiglottis
- 54What occurs during swallowing-Larynx is elevated
- Epiglottis folds back over glottis
- preventing entry of liquid or solid food into respiratory passageway - 55Is ladled shaped and is articulate with superior border of enlarged portion of cricoid cartilage- Arytenoid Cartilage
- 56Is horn shaped structure and is articulate with arytenoid cartilages.-Corniculate Cartilage
- 57Function of the Corniculate and Arytenoid cartilage- Involved in the opening & closing the glottis.
- Production of sound - 58Wedge shaped structure which lies within aryepiglottic fold that extends between lateral aspects of each arytenoid cartilage & epiglottis-Cuneiform Cartilage
- 59Binds all 9 cartilages together to form larynx-Intrinsic ligaments
- 60Attaches thyroid cartilage to hyoid bone & cricoid cartilage to trachea- Extrinsic Ligaments
- 61Extends between thyroid cartilage & arytenoids-Ventricular and vocal ligaments.
- 62Ventricular & vocal ligaments are covered by_____.-Laryngeal Epithelium
- 63Function of Ventricular folds-Prevents foreign objects from entering glottis.
-Provide protection for more delicate vocal folds - 64Is a tough tube with a diameter of 2,5cm and length of 11cm-Trachea
- 65Where does the Trachea begin and end-Begins- anterior to C6 vertebra
- Ends- T5 vertebra of mediastinum - 66True or False: Does the trachea branch out and if so branches into what-True
- Right & Left primary bronchi - 67—
