Anatomy and Function
This function of the respiratory system that gives you the ability to speak, shoot and sing
Voice
These vocal cords prevent food from traveling down the larynx but don't make sound.
False Vocal Cords
These are the white blood cells that are found in the alveolus to destroy foreign invaders.
Macrophages
Term for the concentration of gasses
Partial pressure
In step one of glycolysis, glucose is converted into this...
fructose diphosphate
This lung is smaller to accommodate the heart in the chest cavity.
Left
The passageway between the true vocal cords.
In step three of glycolysis PGAL is converted into this D-PGA and NAD+ is reduced to this...
NADH
These microscopic structures in the lungs are made of simple squamous epithelium and is where diffusion of gasses takes place.
Alveoli
This is the term for the intricate sounds of speech.
Articulation
The term for the normal amount of air left in your lungs when you exhale normally.
Functional residual capacity
This respiratory group controls the switch between inhaling and exhaling
Pontine respiratory group
In the Krebs Cycle this is the number of ATP produced.
2
This cavity of the respiratory system acts as an air conditioner.
Nasal Cavity
These are the muscles of principle inhilation
Diaphragm and external intercostals
Tidal volume
This is the reflex which prevents you from overstretching your lungs.
Hering-Breuer Reflex
In the Oxidation phase of cellular respiration, pyruvate is attached to this molecule.
Coenzyme A
This is the portion of the pharynx where both air and food can pass through.
Oropharynx
This disease causes the walls of the alveoli to degenerate causing many to bundle into few.
Emphysema
The amount (in Liters) of air remaining in the lungs after a forceful exhalation.
1 L
Your body checks for the concentration of CO2 by checking this...
pH
In the ETC the electron acceptors of FADH2 and NADH drop off both the electrons AND this...
H+ ion
