What is #13 pointing to?

Bronchi

100

Location where gas exchange occurs

Alveoli

100

Describe the function of the trachea

carry oxygen-rich air to your lungs from the pharynx/larynx

100

Bronchial spasm resulting in decreased air movement and air trapped in alveoli

asthma

100

Would a lung with oxygen drawn in - sink or float in a beaker of water?

Float

200


What is #15 pointing to?

Pharynx

200

Area at the back of the throat where the mouth and nasal cavity meet

pharynx

200

Flap of tissue which prevents food from entering windpipe during swallowing

epiglottis
200

Infection of the lungs caused by viruses, bacteria, or fungi. Alveoli fill with pus and fluid, making gas exchange difficult

Pneumonia 

200

What happens to the size of the bronchioles as you go deeper into the lungs.

shrink

300

What is letter L pointing to

Diaphragm

300

Each lung is covered in a very thin membrane called

Pleura

300

This cartilage in the tracheal wall provides support and keeps the trachea from collapsing 

Hyaline

300

Tubercles encapsulate bacteria, and elasticity of the lungs are reduced

Pulmonary Tuberculosis

300

tool that measures the amount of air you can breathe out in one second and the total volume of air you can exhale in one forced breath

spirometer

400

What is #4 pointing to?

Right (superior) upper lobe of the lung

400

What is a biopsy?

Tissue sample/examination
400

Describe what happens during inhalation by describing the movement of your diaphragm, lung volume, and air pressure

Diaphragm contracts = lung volume increases = air pressure decreases (air in)

400

Inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes

Bronchitis

400

Expired air will contain more ___________ than inspired air

CO2

500

What are the blood filled vessels that surround this structure called?

Capillaries 

500

What is respiratory distress?

having to work harder to breathe or are not getting enough oxygen

500

Why would it be beneficial for alveoli to have a ton of surface area?

More capability for gas exchange

500

the body's reaction to a lack of oxygen, caused by ascent at a faster pace than acclimatization

Acute Mountain Sickness (altitude sickness)

500

How does emphysema affect the lungs?

Alveoli walls deteriorate
