Anatomy and physiology 2 final exam

type 1 alveolar cells - correct answer form cell walls for alveoli, gas exchange occurs here, simple squamous epithelium type 2 alveolar cells - correct answer also known as the great cells, divide and create more type 1 alveolar cells, produce surfactant macrophages - correct answer primary phagocytes of the innate immune system, clear the air of infectious, toxic, and allergenic particles respiratory membrane - correct answer separates the air within the alveoli from the air within the pulmonary capillaries, consists of the alveolar wall, capillary wall, and the basement membrane pulmonary ventilation - correct answer air in and out of the lungs, leads to external respiration external ventilation - correct answer the exchange of gases across the respiratory membrane, leads to internal respiration internal respiration - correct answer the exchange of gases between capillaries and systemic tissues cellular respiration - correct answer use of oxygen to generate ATP, produces carbon pneumothorax - correct answer air or other fluid builds up in the pleural space causing the lung to collapse dalton's law - correct answer in a mixture of gases, each gas exerts its own pressure henry's law - correct answer gas has to dissolve in a thin film of fluid on the alveolar epithelium, blood unloads CO2 and loads O2 where is partial pressure of oxygen the highest? - correct answer alveoli
