Respiratory System Gisselle De Jesus Per.1
Major Functions of the Respiratory System
Gas transport
in blood between the lungs and body cells
Internal Respiration
gas exchange between the blood and body cells
External respiration
the gas exchange between lungs and blood
Cellular respiration
oxygen use by the cells, and production of carbon
dioxide
Ventilation or breathing
The movement of air into and out of the lungs
Mucous membranes
of bronchial tree filter,warm, and humidify incoming air
Lower Respiratory structures and functions
Trachea
passageway for air; mucous lining
Bronchial tree
conducts air and mucous ling continuous to filter
Larnyx
Passageway for air; prevents foreign objects from entering
lungs
contain air passages, alveoli, blood vessels, etc.
Compare and Contrast the mechanism of inspiration and expiration
Inspiration
Air moves from higher to lower pressure
Air flows in from the atmosphere
Expiration
Air rushes out the lungs into the atmosphere
Pushes the diaphragm upward
Upper Respiratory structures and functions
Nasal cavity
Conducts air to pharynx, moistens air, mucous lining filters
sinuses
Resonant chambers
Nose
provide entrance to nasal cavity; filter incoming air
Pharynx
passageway for air and food
Internal vs. External respiration
External
moves gases from outside of the body into the lungs
Internal
gas exchange between the blood and the tissues
Layers of the pleurae
Visceral pleura
Inner layer
Attached to the surface of each lung
Parietal pleurae
lines the thoracic cavity
Outer layer
Volume and Pressure relationships in thoracic cavity
Volume increases while the pressure decreases during inspiration
Volumes decreases while the pressure increases during expiration
Disorders of the respiratory system
Pneumonia
Bacteria of viral infection of the lungs
Lung Cancer
Uncontrolled cell growth developed in the lung
Tuberculosis
Bacterial infection in the respiratory system caused by mycobacterium
Seasonal Flu
A viral infection; there are many variations of the virus and it changes rapidly year to year
COPD
Includes chronic bronchitis emphysema and asthma
Respiratory volumes and capacities
Volumes
Inspiratory reserve volume
Expiratory reserve volume
Tidal volume
Residual volume
Capacities
Functional residual capaicity
Vital capacity
