Lungs
The two airways that lead to each lung.
What are the bronchi?
Where gas exchange occurs
What are the alveolar sacs?
What is tidal volume?
The amount of chambers we have in our heart.
What is 4?
What are the lungs?
The part that prevents inhaling food?
What is the epiglottis?
The concept/process that allows us to inhale and exhale.
What is diffusion?
The volume that we can not exhale.
What is residual volume?
The type of blood arteries mainly deal with.
What our body makes with the oxygen we breathe.
What is APT/energy?
The slightly smaller lung.
What is the left lung?
The type of pressure in our lungs when we exhale versus when we inhale it is?
What is high then low?
The values that make up Total Lung Capacity.
What are Residual Volume, Inspiratory Reserve Volume, Expiratory Reserve Volume, and Tidal Volume?
The structures in our heart that ensure blood goes in one direction.
What are valves?
The blood vessels that facilitate gas exchange in the lungs.
What are capilarries?
The main airway that leads to the lungs.
What is the trachea?
What are the rib cage and diaphragm?
The amount of air we can keep breathing in after a normal inhalation.
What is Inspiratory Reserve Volume?
These structures control the electric signals sent through the heart to control contractions.
What are nodes?
Gas exchange relies on this principle to facilitate the transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
What is diffusion?
The bone that protects our trachea/larynx?
What is the hyoid bone?
The shape of the diaphragm when it is relaxed.
What is a dome?
This volume is not included in Vital Capacity.
What is residual volume?
The hearts main vein and main artery.
What is the vena cava and aorta?
The vital sign used to measure red blood cells and oxygen transfer.
What is oxygen saturation?
