Respiration/Misc.
Nose and Lung
Pharynx and Larynx
Alveoli and Bronchi
Trachea and Diaphragm
100
The act of inhaling and exhaling, where air enters the red blood cells and makes energy for the body’s needs.
What is definition of respiration?
100
The two openings in the nose that allow air to pass through it's nasal passages.
What is nostrils?
100
The area of the throat that contains vocal cords and produces different pitches. Also known as "Voice Box".
What is larynx?
100
Tiny air sacs in the lungs where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged for the blood.
What is alveoli?
100
A dome shaped muscle that is attached to the lower ribs that functions as the main muscle in the respiration.
What is Diaphragm?
200
Two types of respiration
What is Organismic and Cellular Respiration
200
A respiratory organ in which oxygen from the air is exchanged with carbon dioxide from the blood.
What is lungs?
200
A passage from the mouth to the larynx and esophagus where air, food, and water goes through either of the two tubes.
What is pharynx?
200
The two tubes that connect the lungs with the trachea where the bronchi splits off in the lungs that forms the alveoli.
What is bronchi?
200
The tube that connects the larynx to the lungs (wind pipe).
What is Trachea?
300
When oxygen is used as a chemical reaction within the cells. Reactions produce carbon dioxide and water as waste products.
What is Cellular Respiration?
300
The main air passageway in and out of the respiratory system.
What is nose?
300
Cords that remain open during normal breathing but produce sound when closed and air from the lungs is forced through
What is vocal cords?
300
The act in which the bronchi is cleared.
What is coughing?
300
The act of squeezing air out of the lungs and relaxing the diaphragm.
What is exhalation?
400
When an organism takes in oxygen to be given to the cells, and the cell releases carbon dioxide.
What is Organismic Respiration
400
A carpet of microscopic hairlike cilia line in the nose that capture dust, bacteria, and other damaging particles.
What is Dust Filters?
400
Cartilage plates that stick out, especially for men.
What is Adam's apple?
400
The arrangement of airways inside the lungs.
What is Bronchial Tree?
400
The act of moving the diaphragm downward, allowing air to come into the lungs
What is inhalation or inspiration?
500
Cell structure that combines food with oxygen and releasing energy for the body's needs.
What is mitochondria?
500
One of the two tubes that split off from the pharynx that goes to the stomach.
What is esophagus?
500
One of the tubes that splits off to the stomach
What is esophagus?
500
The tiniest branch of bronchial tree that end in clusters of air sacs (alveoli) that look like grapes.
What is terminal bronchioles?
500
About 5 inches
What is length of human trachea?
