respiratory system
2 major functions of the respiratory system are? correct answers 1. oxygenate blood
2. removal of waste
the lower respiratory system consists of: correct answers trachea, bronchi, and
bronchioles
the lower respiratory system is responsible for? correct answers conduction of air from
the upper respiratory system
proliferate particle correct answers produce disease
lung parenchyma correct answers alveoli
internal respiration correct answers when oxygen attaches to the hemoglobin in the
blood
pulmonary circulation correct answers provides the body with oxygenated blood
visceral pleura correct answers inner lining surrounding and attached to the lung wall
cystic fibrosis correct answers irregular thickening of linear chest markings due to
excessively viscous mucus
surfactant correct answers consists of lipoproteins and provides the proper surface
tension in the alveoli, allowing full external respirations
mycobacterium tuberculosis correct answers a bacterium that is rod-shaped with a
waxy coat allowing it to live outside the body for extended periods of time
coccidioimycosis correct answers pulmonary infiltration, most commonly in the
periphery of the parenchyma, that may resemble pneumonia
what is responsible for the increased rate of nosocomial infections? correct answers
respiratory syncytial virus
COPD signs and symptoms correct answers emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and
asthma
sarcoidosis correct answers bilateral, symmetrical hilar lymph node enlargement
