The conductive zone... - Correct Answer ✔✔ Brings inhaled air TO the respiratory zone
The respiratory zone... - Correct Answer ✔✔ where gas exchange occurs
In the respiratory zone is where oxygen goes into the ---- and carbon dioxide is ----- -
Correct Answer ✔✔ In the respiratory zone is where oxygen goes into the blood and
carbon dioxide is removed
The ------ and the ---- muscles are used to enlarge the chest cavity during pulmonary
respiration - Correct Answer ✔✔ The diaphragm and the intercostal muscles are used
to enlarge the chest cavity during pulmonary respiration

lungs and blood
Internal respiration is the exchange of gas b/w the ---- and ----- - Correct Answer ✔✔
blood and tissues
What is gas exchange? - Correct Answer ✔✔ the process where oxygen is loaded into
pulmonary blood and carbon dioxide is removed
Inhaled gas moves through the ---- or -----, to the -----, ----, ----, ------, -----, and lastly the

(Passage of air) - Correct Answer ✔✔ Mouth/ nose
Pharynx
Larynx
Trachea
Bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveoli
How do gases diffuse in the alveoli - Correct Answer ✔✔ Down their partial pressure
gradients across the respiratory membrane b/w the capillaries and the alveoli
Oxygen diffuses into the ----- where it's delivered to ----- throughout the body - Correct
Answer ✔✔ Oxygen diffuses into the blood where it's delivered to the tissues
throughout the body
Carbon dioxide diffuses out of the ---- as a ----- of cellular respiration - Correct Answer
✔✔ Carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood as a waste product of cellular respiration

conserve heat
When capillaries in the respiratory system dilate - Correct Answer ✔✔ dilate to release
heat
The exhalation of warm/moistened air helps to ---- the body - Correct Answer ✔✔ cool
