2. What helps to keep the expansion forces of the
chest wall and the contracting forces of the alve-
oli/lungs linked so that the lung does not col-
lapse and the chest does not expand further:
3. In response to low alveolar PO2 Vascular smooth mus-

in COPD the TV to a higher vol-

5. Vasoconstriction of a pulmonary artery serving Decreased blood flow to
the area of the lung will have what effect? that area
6. How is most of the CO2 transported in the blood? As bicarbonate that can
