3
Today’s Agenda Look over air flow sequence Notes on objective 5-9 Lung volume Lab
4
Boyles Law and Breathing Boyles Law: Pressure of a gas varies inversely with its volume. Inspiration lowers pressure in thorax, air flows inward. Expiration raises pressure, air moves out.
8
Objective 6: Muscles of Inspiration Inspiration occurs when the diaphragm and the intercostal muscles contract. Expiration occurs more passively as these muscles relax and the lungs recoil.

Obj. 7 Partial Vacuum The intrapleural space (space between lung and wall of chest) always has a more negative pressure than the interpulmonary space (inside lungs).
10
Obj. 7 Partial Vacuum The negative pressure must exist at all times to keep the lung in its proper shape and location to prevent lung collapse.
11
Obj. 8 Pulmonary Ventilation Friction in airways causes resistance and results in more strenuous breathing. Lung compliance depends on the elasticity of the lungs and chest flexibility.
12
Obj. 8 Pulmonary Ventilation Surface tension of alveolar fluid reduces alveoli size and could collapse alveoli.
13
Obj. 9 Lung Volumes Tidal volume – normal inhale/exhale amount Residual volume – air that remains in lungs after exhale.
14
Obj. 9 Lung Volumes Inspiratory volume – amount that can be forcefully inhaled Expiratory reserve – amount of forced exhale
