Windpipe
Who am I?
- made up of rings of cartilage, has smooth muscle cells and contain ciliated epithelial cell
Trachea (windpipe)
Breaking down material, movement, repair cell, electrical impulses, produce heat, growth, active transport
What causes Asthma?
Bronchioles tube are narrowed or blocked by mucus
fill in the blanks
________ (smaller air pockets) is caused by swollen lining of ___________ due to ______________, the effect of it is that your __________ will be ___________.
No.
I am ________ cell, I belong in the ________. My job is to produce ___________ to trap dust
Goblet, trachea, mucus
State function of bronchi / bronchioles, then state function and adaptation of alveoli.
Function bronchi / bronchioles - takes in air
Function alveoli - takes in and takes out oxygen
Adaptation alveoli - one cell thick, short distance from capillaries, large surface area
Name all the parts in respiratory system.
Nose / mouth, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli
Vieno is a kid who often sleeps in class. Out of anger her parents decided to transfer her into Sri Emas but now she is having a hard time catching up with her studies and is asking for notes from everyone. YunLi, a kind person passed her notes but the 6 respiratory diseases are missing. Please help her identify the 6 respiratory diseases.
Emphysema, Asthma, Carbon Monoxide Poisoning, Smoker's cough, Lung cancer, Bronchitis
What is the function of mucus in nose?
Traps pathogen and dust
Correct the following statement.
''I am Cilia, my job is to produce mucus to trap dust.''
My job is to waft, sweep away the mucus.
What are the factors that affect diffusion of gas?
large surface area - more oxygen, more alveoli
short distance - thinner wall, more capillaries
diffusion gradient - breathing causes oxygen to enter different concentration of gas between alveoli and blood
determine if this following statement by Carpentier is correct. If wrong, point it out.
''People who are diagnosed with smoker's cough have more mucus than normal, their cilia gets destroyed by smoke particles. It will start beating faster than usual, gets exhausted and eventually die. the mucus not moved out of lungs can cause accumulation of dust and bacteria.''
false, cilia will not beat faster and gets exhausted.
Salvatrice ferments all sort of people on a daily basis, but today she decides to ferment plants, fruits and yeast. While looking in the pot, she starts wondering which way do plants use to respire? is it the aerobic way or the anaerobic way?
plants respire using anaerobic respiration
Your nose is rich with _____________, __________ the ____ when you breathe.
Name all 3 difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
aerobic - involves oxygen, more energy, oxygen + glucose > carbon dioxide + water
anaerobic - does not involve oxygen, less energy, glucose > lactic acid
is it true that when you breathe in air, your..
external intercostal muscle contracts
internal intercostal muscle relax
ribcage move outward and upward
diaphragm contracts, move inward
volume of thoracic cavity increases
air rush into lungs
No, diaphragm contract and move downward
Jason is a professional smoker, previously their grandma had been diagnosed with lung cancer, he is really concerned about the risk of getting diagnosed too, please tell him why it will happen and what happens when he gets diagnosed
mentioning about tar in smoke causing cells in alveoli to divide rapidly to form lumps creating lung cancer
Listen to the statement read out by our teammates (YH) carefully. (only once)
After that, please tell her what her friend Marika most likely had experienced and how does it work.
She most likely experienced carbon monoxide poisoning, this is when carbon monoxide binds with hemoglobin in RBC and less oxygen can be carried. She most likely experienced *any of the 6 symptoms* before she passed
Word equation of fermentation
Glucose > Ethanol + Carbon Dioxide
taking in of more oxygen to break down lactic acid produced, it takes place when doing vigorous activity
Bonus (Fun Fact) question!!
What are the different type of gases in a fart?
Nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, methane sometimes hydrogen sulfide
Averill is a poor kid who is diagnosed with Emphysema, he is really concerned about it, he doesn't know how did he suddenly gets diagnosed and what is happening to him. NOW TELL HIM WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO HIS BODY AND WHAT MOST LIKELY HAD CAUSED HIM TO SUFFER FROM EMPHYSEMA!!
causes - smoking, air pollution, heredity, what is happening to his body would be wall of alveoli broken down, reduces surface area so less oxygen are diffused into blood, elastic tissue destroyed can't stretch and coil for air to go out
Elliot (Alexa) is a 8 y/o kid who had been receiving her best out of best knowledge in respiratory system, although there is still some parts she wasn't so sure about. Today, she decided to ask you some questions…
inhalation - external intercostal muscle contracts, internal intercostal muscle relax, ribcage moves outwards and upwards, diaphragm contracts, move downwards, volume of thoracic cavity increases, air rush into lung
exhalation - external intercostal muscle relax, internal intercostal muscle contract, ribcage move down and inward, diaphragm relax move to dome shape, volume of thoracic cavity decreases, air rush out of lung
