The area defined by the first rib & clavicle
What is the superior portion of the lungs?
100
The larger of the two lungs.
What is the right lung.
100
A flexible tube that runs anteriorly to the esophagus.
What is the trachea?
100
This muscle of inspiration is not paired with another muscle.
What is the diaphragm?
100
The only two ribs not to attach to the sternum, directly or indirectly.
What are the floating ribs?
200
The lungs are lined by this.
What is the visceral pleurae?
200
The cavity responsible for warming, moistening, and filtering air.
What is the nasal cavity?
200
This mainstem bifurcation forms a 20-30 degree angle.
What is the right side bronchi (or bronchial tubes)?
200
These muscles can also assist in inspiration.
What are the external intercostals?
200
Where the ribs attach on the thoracic vertebrae.
What are the superior & inferior facets?
300
The contraction of the diaphragm causes this.
What is the pulling down/expansion of the lungs?
300
A flap of tissue that aids in swallowing and prevents food from entering the trachea.
What is the epiglottis?
300
These are found at the ends of bronchial tree.
What are alveoli?
300
These are the anterior thoracic muscles of inspiratin.
What are the external intercostals & interchondral portion of the internal intercostals?
300
This rib defines the inferior point of the lungs.
What is 12th rib?
400
This muscle is connected posteriorly to L3 & L4.
What is the diaphragm?
400
This is the point of bifurcation of the trachea
What is the carina trachea?
400
This is transported out of the alveoli.
What is carbon dioxide?
400
These muscles are primarily involved with forced expiration.
What are the internal intercostal muscles?
400
This portion of the rib articulates with the spinal column.
What is the head?
500
This arises from the cervical plexus of the spinal nerves C3, C4, C5.
What is the phrenic nerve?
500
The correct sequence of air entering the body during respiration. (7 structures)
What are the nostrils/oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli?
500
These two secondary bronchi service this.
What is the left lung?
500
These muscles go from the lower to higher ribs and cause the rib cage to collapse.
What are the internal intercostals?
500
Directly articulates 5 ribs, plus 3 floating ribs indirectly.
What is the sternum?
