Respiratory System - Nasal Cavity
Abnormal function of organs, tissues and cells due to abnormal structures of these things.
What is Pathophysiology?
The 8 conducting zone structures.
What are, the nares, nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchiole, and terminal bronchiole?
The three functions of the club/Clara cells
What are 1. secrete GAGS, 2. Metabolize xenobiotics, and 3. act as Stem cell for bronchiolar epithelium repair
The definition of the primary symbol S in respiratory symbols.
The function of hyaline cartilage in the trachea.
What is, structural support, shape and stability to prevent collapse
The 7 functions of the respiratory system
1. Ventilation
2. Gas Exchange
3. Acid-Base Balance
4. Communication
5. Thermoregulation
6. Metabolism of endogenous/exogenous substances
7. Immune Function
The respiratory zone structures.
What are the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs (contain alveoli)?
The makeup/organization of a Cilia.
What is 9 doublets surrounded by 1 singlet of Microtubules?
What is, the volume changes of gas during inspiration and expiration?
The type of epithelium on the lateral side of the Vomeronasal Organ.
TRE (used in secretion and movement of mucus)
Typical respiratory epithelium (TRE) is composed of what type of epithelium, and where is it located?
What is Ciliated Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium? and What is the Middle 1/3 of the Nasal Cavity -> Bronchi?
The reason why decreased airflow resistance decreases with an increase in airway generations.
Where is the mucociliary escalator located and what is it composed of?
What is the Nose to Bronchioles, and What is 1. Epithelial Lining, 2. Mucus Gel Blanket, 3. Soluble Layer
The definition of Residual Volume (RV).
What is, the Volume of gas left in the lung after the maximum forced expiration?
The function of the Respiratory Zone.
Gas Exchange (O2 <--> CO2)
The purpose of the Neuroendocrine cells (TRE cell type).
What is communication between the immune and nervous systems and sense airway activity and secrete neuropeptides to stimulate immune response?
The pharynx components that have non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.
What are the Oropharynx and the Laryngopharynx
The affect Acetylcholine has on the bronchiole.
What is Bronchoconstriction (increase airway resistance)
How restrictive lung diseases impact lung capacities.
What is, decreases all of them (IC, VC, TLC, FRC and RV).
The layer immediately deep to the epithelium.
What is, oxidative stress in long-lived post mitotic cells, reflecting the incomplete breakdown of damaged cellular components, and representing "wear and tear" on neurons?
Which part of the respiratory tract has hyaline cartilage in a plate-like organization?
What is the Bronchus?
The two functions of Type II Alveolar Epithelial Cells.
What are 1. secrete pulmonary surfactant to decrease surface tension and 2. act as Stem cells for Type I AECs.
The definition of minute ventilation.
What is, the total amount of air breathed per minute (Ve)
Name of the muscular tissue in the broncioles.
What is the Muscularis.
