Why does the volume of the lungs increase during inspiration the alveolar pressure increases?

Boyle's Law

False

What is one of the 5 major changes when switching to breathing for life and breathing for speech?

location of air intake: inhaling and exhaling for life breathing takes place through the nose; inhaling and exhaling for speech occur through the mouth

ratio of time for inhalation vs. exhalation: life breathing → inhale 40%, exhale 60%; speech breathing → inhale 10% exhale 90% **makes speech more efficient because it is produced on the exhale

volume of air inhaled/exhaled: more for speech breathing, increases with louder and longer utterances

muscle activity for exhalation: life breathing → exhalation is passive, relies on recoil forces; speech breathing → muscle activity is utilized. Inspiration muscles continue to contract to prevent the lungs from depleting too quickly chest wall shape

life breathing → abdomen displaced outward relative to rib cage

speech breathing → abdomen placed inward relative to rib cage

True or False: When the diaphragm is relaxed it is moved downward and the lungs expand and inflate

False

What is a characteristic of a person’s speech/voice with Parkinson’s Disease?

monotone, imprecise articulation, breathy, low intensity and weak; breathy and weak typically due to poor respiratory support
