Which lung is larger

Right lung

100

List the 4 main functions of the respiratory system

Movement of gas

O2/CO2 exchange

Odor detection

Sound production

100

What are the accessory digestive organs

teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas 

100

What does salivary amylase breakdown do AND where is it secreted

glucose and starch AND by salivary glands

100

Define compliance

ease of which lungs and chest wall expand

200

What structures are in the lower respiratory tract

Trachea 

Bronchus 

Bronchioles 

Alveoli

200

What is pulmonary ventilation

Bonus 50 pts: (what are the 2 cyclic phases)

air moving between atmosphere and alveoli 

Bonus: inspiration and expiration

200

List the 4 tunics of that make up the GI wall

Mucosa 

Submucosa

Muscularis 

Serosa 

200

What is the role of gastrin

stimulates stomach secretions, like HCl, and motility 

300

What structure lines the respiratory tract?

Ciliated columnar epithelium 

300

How do you find partial pressure

total pressure x % of gas = partial pressure

(atmospheric pressure = 760 mmHg at sea level

nitrogen is 78.6% of gas in the air 

760 x .786 = 597 mmHg of partial pressure of nitrogen)

300

What are the rugae and where is it found

gastric folds found on the internal stomach lining when stomach is empty

300

What do CCK and secretin have in common (2 reasons)

inhibits gastric motility and gastric secretions and released from small intestine in response to chyme 

300

Define the cooperative binding effect 

saturation increases as PO2 increases

400

What structure is responsible for sound, protects respiratory tract, and creates intra abdominal pressure?

Larynx

400

What causes quiet expiration

VRG is inhibited, signal is stopped to inspiratory muscles, muscles relax

400

What nerve innervates the stomach from higher brain centers and the medulla oblongata 

Vagus nerve

400

What are the 3 phases of swallowing

Voluntary phase

Pharyngeal phase

Esophageal phase

500

Muscles of forced inspiration and expiration (which muscles go with each)

inspiration: Sternocleidomastoid, scalenes, pectoralis minor, and serratus posterior superior

expiration: internal intercostals, abdominal muscles, transversus thoracis, and serratus posterior inferior

500

What causes a right shift in the Oxygen-Hemoglobin Dissociation Curve

Decreased affinity for O2 

(increased PCO2, H+ levels, temp)

500

What are the cells of the stomach listed from superficial to deep 

Surface mucous cell

Mucous neck cell

Parietal cell

Chief cell

G - cell

500

These cells establish basic rhythm of muscular contraction in the stomach by spontaneously depolarizing

Pacemaker cells in the stomach
