BIOL 2130: EXAM 5

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