throat
Paranasal sinuses - CORRECT ANSWER-Extensions of the nasal cavity located
in the surrounding facial bones They lighten the weight of the skull and give
resonance to the voice
Frontal sinuses - CORRECT ANSWER-These lie in the frontal bone that
extends above the orbital cavities
Ethmoidal sinuses - CORRECT ANSWER-A honeycomb of small spaces located
between the eyes
Sphenoidal sinuses - CORRECT ANSWER-These lie behind the nasal cavity
,Maxillary sinuses - CORRECT ANSWER-These are found on either side of the
nose in the maxillary bones. They are the largest sinuses and the most
accessible to treatment
Turbinates - CORRECT ANSWER-These are bones that change the flow of
inspired air to moisturize and warm it better
Pharynx - CORRECT ANSWER-This carries air from the nose to the larynx and
food from the mouth to the esophagus
Nasopharynx - CORRECT ANSWER-This is near the nose and above the soft
palate
Oropharynx - CORRECT ANSWER-This is near the mouth
Tonsils - CORRECT ANSWER-These protect against infection and are found in
the pharynx
Larynx - CORRECT ANSWER-This is a cartilaginous framework between the

Respiration - CORRECT ANSWER-The exchange of oxygen and CO2 between
the atmospheric air and the blood and between the blood and the cells
Ventilation - CORRECT ANSWER-The actual movement of air in and out of the
respiratory tract
Diffusion - CORRECT ANSWER-The exchange of oxygen and CO2 through the
alveolar capillary membrane
Perfusion - CORRECT ANSWER-This refers to blood supply to the lungs
through which the lungs receive nutrients and oxygen
Thoracentesis - CORRECT ANSWER-This is a procedure the physician may use
to aspirate excess fluid or air from the pleural space by inserting a needle into
the chest wall
Rhinitis - CORRECT ANSWER-This is the inflammation of the nasal mucous
