Functions of the Respiratory System. - (answer)-Air passageway.
-Gas exchange.
-Smell- Olfactory receptors.
-Sound production.
-O2, CO2, and H+ (pH) regulation.
Structural Classification of respiratory system. - (answer)-Upper respiratory system (nose, pharynx,
associated structures).
-Lower respiratory system (larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs).
Functional Classification of respiratory system. - (answer)-Conducting zone (nose, pharynx, larynx,
trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and terminal bronchioles).
-Respiratory zone (respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs, and alveoli).
Conducting zone. - (answer)Filters, warms, and moistens air before sending it to the lungs.
Respiratory zone. - (answer)Site of gas exchange.
Mucous Membrane (AKA Mucosa). - (answer)-Mostly ciliated epithelium.
-Becomes progressively thinner from the nasal cavity to the alveoli.
-Goblet cells produce mucus.
-Contain antimicrobial proteins and IgA.
Mucin. - (answer)-Mucous secretions contain this.
-Increases the viscosity of mucus to better trap particles and microbes.
Nose functions. - (answer)-Conditions air (warms, moistens, and filters).

-Detect olfactory stimuli.
-Modify speech vibrations.
Nose regions. - (answer)-Nasal vestibule.
-Olfactory region.
-Respiratory region.
Nasal vestibule. - (answer)-Immediately internal to nostrils.
-Vibrissae trap large particles.
Respiratory region. - (answer)-Lined with mucosa. Cilia sweep mucus toward the throat and cilia become
sluggish in cold temperatures.
-Extensive vasculature.
Rhinoplasty. - (answer)Surgery to alter the shape of the nose.
Clinical Connection: Nose Jobs. - (answer)-Used to repair a fractured nose or deviated nasal septum, but
also used for cosmetic reasons.
-Nasal cartilage is reshaped, nasal bones are fractured and repositioned.
-Internal packing and a splint are inserted to help it heal in the new shape.
Paranasal Sinuses. - (answer)-Lined by pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium (continuous with
mucosa of nasal cavity).
-Mucus is swept from each sinus--> nasal cavity--> pharynx--> swallowed.
Clinical Connection: Rhinitis. - (answer)-Inflammation of nasal mucosa.
-Excessive mucus production.
-Nasal congestion.

-Postnasal drip.
Pharynx. - (answer)-Posterior to nasal cavity and extends to larynx.
-Contraction of skeletal muscles assists in deglutition.
-Function: Passageway for air and food.
Regions of the Pharynx. - (answer)-Nasopharynx.
-Oropharynx.
-Laryngopharynx.
Nasopharynx. - (answer)-Normally, only air passes through.
-Auditory tubes equalize air pressure.
-Pharyngeal tonsil.
Oropharynx. - (answer)Lingual and palatine tonsils.
Laryngopharynx. - (answer)Common passageway for food and air.
Functions of the Larynx. - (answer)-Passageway for air.
-Prevents food from entering respiratory tract.
-Sound protection.
-Increases pressure in abdominal cavity.
-Sneeze/cough reflex.
Larynx. - (answer)-Composed of 9 pieces of cartilage (Thyroid cartilage/Adam's apple, cricoid cartilage).
-Epiglottis closes off glottis during swallowing.
