BIOL 2302 Respiratory System Practice
Exam Questions And 100% Correct
Answers.
Processes of the Respiration - Answer 1. pulmonary ventilation
2. external respiration
3. transport of respiratory gases
4. internal respiration
pulmonary ventilation (breathing) - Answer movement of air into and out of the lungs
external respiration - Answer exchange of O2 and CO2 between lungs and blood
processes of the respiratory system - Answer pulmonary ventilation and external respiration
Processes of Circulatory System - Answer transport and internal respiration
transport process - Answer transports O2 and CO2 in blood
internal respiration - Answer exchange of O2 and CO2 in systemic vessels and tissues
Major Organs of the Upper Respiratory System - Answer nose, nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, pharynx
Major Organs of the Lower Respiratory System - Answer Larynx
Trachea
Bronchi and branches
Lungs and alveoli
, upper respiratory system time - Answer takes longer for air to pass through because the air needs to be
warmed and moistened before entry to the lower respiratory system
What is the only external portion of the respiratory system? - Answer nose
function of the nose - Answer - Provides an airway for respiration
- Moistens and warms entering air
- Filters and cleans inspired air
- Serves as resonating chamber for speech
- Houses olfactory receptors
what in the nose is in charge of filtering air - Answer nose hair (cilia)
two regions of the nose - Answer external nose and nasal cavity
what is the entryway of all air into the respiratory system - Answer nose
what is the nasal cavity divided by - Answer nasal septum
posterior nasal aperture - Answer opening where nasal cavity turns into nasopharynx
roof of nose - Answer formed by ethmoid and sphenoid bones
floor of nose - Answer formed by hard palate (bone) and soft palate (muscle)
what does the cartilage in the nose do - Answer prevents the mucus membranes from collapsing on
one another
nasal vestibule - Answer nasal cavity superior to nostrils
