Respiratory Anatomy
Types of Breathing
Gas Laws
100

In these structure(s), a respiration begins

What are the Nose/Mouth

100

This type of breathing is categorized as an increase in ventilation to meet an increased demand for oxygen

What is Hyperventilation

100

This law states that pressure and volume have an inverse relationship

What is Boyles Law

200

This structure is known as the "Windpipe"

What is the Trachea

200

This type of breathing refers to the temporary cessation of breathing, may happen during sleep

What is Apnea

200

When you exhale, what happens to both the volume and pressure of your lungs?

The volume decreases and pressure increases (Boyles Law)

300

This lung is slightly larger (Left or Right)

What is the Right Lung

300

This type of breathing refers to normal, quiet breathing. 12-17 Respirations/Min is normal.

What is Eupnea

300

This law states that the volume of a gas is perportional to the temperature when pressure is constant. (Ex if temperature goes up, volume goes up)

What is Charles Law

400

This is the major muscle of respiration 

What is the Diaphragm

400

This type of breathing is referred to as a decrease in ventilation that leads to a buildup of CO2

What is Hypoventilation 

400

This law states that the total pressure of a mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures. 

What is Dalton's Law

500

These are described as small hairs to filter inspirated air

What are the Cilia

500

This law states that the amount of a gas dissolved in a liquid is proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the liquid

What is Henry's Law
