with Answers | Grade A | 100%
Correct - Chamberlain
Question:
respiratory membrane
Answer:
thin barrier between the alveolar air and blood
Question:
3 layers of the respiratory membrane
Answer:
squamous alveolar cells, capillary endothelial cells, basement membrane
,Question:
pleurae
Answer:
double-layered membrane that lines the thoracic wall and surface of the lung
Question:
function of pleurae
Answer:
reduced friction during breathing & creates a pressure gradient that expands
the lungs during inhalation
Question:
visceral pleura
Answer:
inner layer that covers the lung surface
Question:
parietal pleura
Answer:
outer layer that lines the inner surface of the thoracic wall
,Question:
pleural cavity
Answer:
potential space between the 2 layers that contains a film of slippery pleural
fluid
Question:
how much airflow does the diaphragm account for?
Answer:
two-thirds
Question:
what keeps the diaphragm alive?
Answer:
phrenic nerves (C3-C5)
Question:
how much airflow do the intercostal muscles account for?
Answer:
one-third
, Question:
internal intercostal muscles
Answer:
muscles contract and pull the ribcage inward during forced exhalation
Question:
external intercostal muscles
Answer:
pulls the ribs upward during inhalation
Question:
atmospheric (barometric) pressure
Answer:
pressure applied upon us from the surrounding air; sea level average =
760mmHg
Question:
intrapulmonary pressure
Answer:
pressure w/in alveoli of the lungs; this pressure changes as air is inhaled or
exhaled
