Lab 13 The Respiratory System BIO202L
Student Name: JOE BALBINA.
Access Code (located on the lid of your lab kit): AC – U8VHJA
Lab Report Format Expectations
Utilize college level grammar and professional formatting when completing this worksheet.
Submissions without proper formatting, all required photos or sufficient responses will be rejected.
Pre-lab Questions
1. Name two functions of the nasal cavity mucosa.
One of the functions is to maintain moisture. The other function is to tran foreign substances.
2. Why is the trachea reinforced with cartilaginous rings?
The purpose is to protect and also maintain an open airway.
3. Describe the path a molecule of oxygen takes to get to body tissue, starting with the nares.
It will start with Pharynx, then to Larynx, Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Aveoli, Left ventricle,
aorta, artery, arteriole, and then the Capillaries where the diffusion will then take place.
4. What is asthma? Provide a definition in your own words below.
Asthma is a chronic condition where the lungs are impacted due to external factors such as
allergies, chemical reaction, where the bronchi and bronchioles and alveoli restrict causing a
deficiency in oxygen and gas exchange.
