Respiration Respiratory organs Page 440-443
2
Purpose Two roles: ◦ To obtain _______ from the air around us ◦ To provide a mechanism to expel _____________ from the body
3
Respiratory Structures
4
Can be divided based on two main functions: ◦
5
Respiratory Structures Channel for air: ◦ Mouth and nasal passages What are the two functions besides just providing a channel?
6
Respiratory Structures Channel for air: ◦ Trachea Semi-rigid tube surrounded by bands of _________ Meant to stay always open Also lined with _______ and ______ to collect ______________
7
Tracheal cilia Sweeps particles away ◦ Swallowed ◦ Sneezed or coughed out
8
Respiratory Structures Channel for air: ◦ Bronchus (plural: bronchi) ◦ Bronchiole ◦ Alveolus (plural: alveoli)
9
Respiratory Structures: Lungs
10
Large organs made up of: ◦ Has a sponge-like texture Surrounded by _________ membrane
11
Pleural Cavity Fluid filled cavity that surrounds the lung Allows the lung to: When cavity is punctured and air introduced, lung can’t move properly and collapses ◦ Condition called _____________
12
Lungs: Alveoli Tiny, sac-like structures Have a diameter of about 0.1 μ m ◦ μ is 10 -6 About 150 million in each lung
13
Lungs: Alveoli Surrounded by a web-like network of capillaries
14
Lungs: Alveoli Surrounded by a web-like network of _____________ Thin walls allow for: ◦ Gases move by ___________ Flowing from ______ concentration to ______ concentration
15
Lungs: Alveoli
16
Breathing Accomplished through the action of the diaphragm ◦ Important concepts: ◦ Chest cavity volume ◦ Air pressure
17
Breathing Breathing in: ◦ Diaphragm: ◦ Ribs move _________ through the action of the _______________ ◦ ______ in the volume of the chest cavity and _______ pressure in lungs causes air to rush in
18
Breathing Breathing out: ◦ Diaphragm: ◦ Ribs return to their resting location ◦ ________ in the volume of the chest cavity and __________ pressure in lungs causes air to rush out
19
Breathing: Lung Capacity Total lung capacity: ◦ Tidal volume: ◦
20
Breathing: Lung Capacity Inspiratory reserve volume: ◦ The maximum amount of air that a person can forcibly ____________ (voluntary action) ◦ It is the amount that is __________the tidal volume Expiratory reserve volume: ◦ The maximum amount of air that a person can forcible ___________ (voluntary) ◦ Much __________ than the tidal volume
21
Breathing: Lung Capacity
22
Vital Capacity: ◦ Residual volume: ◦ ◦ There so the lungs don’t ___________
23
