Explain the difference between communication and language

Communication: the exchange of thoughts and ideas

Language: Abstract, symboled, rule-based representation of meaning

100

What are the 3 functional components of speech? What are the 2 main functions of the respiratory system?

Diaphragm, abdominal muscles, rib cage

Breathing and speech

100

The lungs naturally want to ___ and the rib cage wants to ___.

contract; expand

100

What is on the y-axis and x-axis of the relaxation curve?

y-axis: vital capacity %

x-axis: relaxation pressure (cmH20)

200

Define source & filter; give one example of each

source:generates sounds; phonation of VF

filter modifies the sound; tongue, lips, jaw,

200

List the vertebrae in order and tell how any there are of each

Cervical (7)

Thoracic (12)

Lumbar (5)

Sacral (5)

Coccygeal (5)

200

What is the percentage of inspiration and expiration during rest breathing and speech breathing?

rest breathing: 40% inspiration, 60 % expiration

speech breathing: 10% inspiration, 90% expiration

200

If the lung volume is higher than the resting level, what kind of pressure do we have?

positive pressure

300

Name the 10 functional components of speech

Abdominal muscles, diaphragm, rib cage, larynx, tongue/ pharynx, posterior tongue, anterior tongue, velopharynx, jaw, lips

300

How many pairs of ribs have a direct/ indirect connection, and how many are floating?

1-7 direct

8-10 indirect

11-12 floating 

300

During ___ the ribs move anteriorly and _____, and the diaphragm moves ___ and ___

inspiration; laterally; downwards; outwards

300

What does it meant keep the recoil forces in check? (bike analogy)

The inspiratory muscles are like our bike breaks. They monitor the rate at which the recoil forces of the lung let out our air.

400

Explain Boyle's law and how it related to the lungs

As volume increases pressure decreases; as volume decreases pressure increases 

When the pressure inside the lungs is less than outside, outside air want to come in

400

Where are the external, intercartilaginous, and interosseous intercostals located on the rib cage?

External: outside thoracic cage

Intercartilaginous: between the cartilage

Interosseous: between the bones

400

The initial act of expiration is produced by the relaxation of the ___muscles, and the ___ ___ of the rib cage

inspiration; recoil forces

400

Your client is asked to produce an /i/ at 8 cmH20. At 60% VC, the muscular forces need to generate:

Which muscular forces are needed?

-2 cmH20

inspiratory

500

Define/ explain each of the 4 parts of the model of expressive language

IDEA: message planning;" what do I want to say?"

WORDS: message coding; "how should I say it?" choose words and sounds

MOVEMENT STRATEGY: motor planning/ programming; choose which muscles contract/ how much/ how long

MOVING: motor execution; activation/ movement of muscles in respiratory, phonatory, resonators, articulatory systems

500

We have two kinds of pleura in our thoracic cage. What are they, where are they located, and what would happen if we didn't have them?

Visceral pleura: lines exterior of lungs

Parietal pleura: lines the interior of the rib cage

If we did not have the pleura, our lungs would collapse and our ribs would expand to full capacity

500

Your client is asked to produce an /i/ at 8 cmH2O. At 5% VC, the muscular pressure needed is:

+38 cmH2O

500

Explain how the inspiratory and expiratory muscles are used while maintaining a steady state utterance.

Once we inhale the recoil forces naturally want to bring the lungs back down to equilibrium with the atmospheric pressure. When we begin to produce a steady state utterance, the inspiratory muscles 'check' the recoil forces by counteracting them until we reach equilibrium and they are no longer needed. Then the expiratory muscles take over to continue expiration past equilibrium.
