|
the walls of the alveoli are composed of the types of cells, type 1 and type 2. The function of type 2 is
|
to secrete surfactant
|
|
Intrapulmonary pressure is the
|
pressure within the alveoli of the lungs
|
|
the relationship between the pressure and volume of gases is given by
|
Boyle's law
|
|
the statement, "in a mixture of gases, the total pressure is the sum of the individual partial pressures of gases in the mixture" paraphrases:
|
Dalton's Law
|
|
surfactant helps to prevent the alveoli from collapsing by
|
interfering with the cohesiveness of water molecules, thereby reducing the surface tension of alveolar fluid
|
|
Nerve impulses from ________ will result in inspiration
|
The dorsal respiratory group
|
|
Which of the following is not an event necessary to supply the body with oxygen and dispose of carbon dioxide?
|
blood pH adjustment
|
|
tidal volume is air that is:
|
exchanged during normal breathing
|
|
respiratory control centers are located in the
|
Medulla and Pons
|
|
the amount of air that can be inspired above the tidal volume is called
|
inspiratory reserve
|
|
oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged in the lungs and through all cell membranes by
|
diffusion
|
|
which respiratory associated muscles would contract if you were to blow up a balloon
|
the internal intercostals and abdominal muscles would contract
|
|
which of the following provide the greatest surface area for gas exchange
|
alveoli
|
|
the respiratory membrane is a combination of
|
Alveolar and Capillary walls, and their fused basal lamina
|
|
which center(s) is (are) located in the pons
|
pneumotaxic
|
|
if oxygen exerts 159mmHg at sea level, then nitrogen exerts _______mmHg
|
601
|
|
most inspired particles such as dust fail to reach the lungs because of the
|
ciliated mucous lining in the nose
|
|
in mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration, the rescuer blows air from his/her own respiratory system into that of the victim, thus:
|
expansion of the victims lungs is brought about by blowing air in at a higher than atmospheric pressure (passive pressure breathing)
|
|
lack of type II cells in the lungs would account for
|
All of the Above
|
|
a person reports a stabbing victim as "gasping for air" the reason behind this is
|
an equalization between atmospheric pressure and intrapulmonary pressure
|
|
air enters the lung due to what principle
|
all of the above
|
|
an increase in pulmonary pressure will lead to
|
none of the above
|
|
the major inspiratory muscle is the
|
diaphragm
|
|
expiration of air is due to
|
all of the above
|
|
oxygen is driven into the tissue at what approximate partial pressure?
|
-104 to 40
|
|
an equation of partial pressures of carbon dioxide at the alveolus and the blood would lead to
|
retention of CO2 and decreased pH
|
|
as oxygen and carbon dioxide travel through the body, blood, and tissues, the major driving force that removes or adds them to the alveolus or tissues is
|
a difference in respective partial pressures
|
|
an increase in carbon dioxide and temperature could result in the following
|
none of the above
|
|
an absence of carbonic anhydrase could result in the following
|
all of the above
|
|
an increase in carbon dioxide levels could directly affect
|
all of the above
|
|
as you descend into depths of water, it would theoretically be easier to breathe (if you could through water)
|
true
|
|
as you ascend in altitude, it becomes more difficult to breathe due to the lack of oxygen in the atmosphere
|
false
|
|
in the rbc, carbon dioxide and water, will without assistance, form carbonic acid
|
false
|
|
underwater, with a breathing source, if you inhaled, your lungs would remian the exact same shape as you ascended if you never exhaled
|
false
|
|
inspiration is a passive process that creates a negative pressure inside the lungs, relative to the atmospheric pressure
|
false
|
|
the diaphragm is directly responsible for increased volume and decreased pressure (relative to atmospheric) in inspiration
|
true
|
|
the natural tendency of the lungs is to recoil or assume a smaller shape in inspiration
|
true
|
|
the partial pressure of oxygen is greater in the tissues than in the blood and that difference of pressure is what drives oxygen into the tissues
|
false
|
|
inspiration of the air is similar to pulling or removing air from the surrounding area
|
false
|
|
as oxygen binds to hemoglobin, the next molecule of oxygen can bind easier, this is known as competitive binding
|
false
|
