To exchange gases between lung air spaces and blood

What structures make up the respiratory zone?

Alveoli, Alveolar ducts, and Respiratory/terminal bronchioles

Trachea, Bronchi, and Bronchioles

Nasal cavity, Pharynx, and Larynx

Diaphragm, Intercostal muscles, and Pleura

What process happens in the respiratory zone?

Exchange of gasses between air and blood

Where are alveoli found, and what is their function during respiration?

In the lungs, where gas exchange occurs

In the brain, to assist in neural activity

What is the order of structures that inhaled air passes through it get from the nose to the alveoli in the lungs?

Nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli

Nasal cavity, larynx, diaphragm, bronchioles, alveoli

Nasal cavity, trachea, diaphragm, bronchi, alveoli

What is the role of the cardiovascular system in respiration?

The cardiovascular system performs the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide during respiration.

The cardiovascular system regulates body temperature during breathing.

The cardiovascular system filters carbon dioxide from the blood.

The cardiovascular system produces oxygen in the lungs.

What is the purpose of the surfactant produced by the cells in your lungs?

Keeps lungs tissues moist and aids in diffusion of gasses.

To increase the surface area of the alveoli.

Which lung is smaller? Why is this the case?

The left lung is smaller, to make room for the heart.

The right lung is smaller, there is less space on the right side of the chest.

Both lungs are the same size, each side is equally important

The left lung is larger, the left side of the body needs more oxygen.

What are the two reasons that high altitudes make it difficult to breathe?

1. Decreased air pressure results in lower oxygen concentration in the air. 2. Lower pressure slows diffusion of gasses

1. More trees at high altitudes produce extra oxygen. 2. The thicker air is difficult for the lungs to breathe in.

1. Lower temperatures increase oxygen absorption. 2. Lower pressure increases the rate of gas diffusion

1. Increased humidity decreases available oxygen molecules. 2. Lower pressure slows the speed of blood moving through the circulatory system.

What is the epiglottis, and what is its function?

The epiglottis is a cartilage flap that prevents food and liquids from entering the trachea during swallowing.

The epiglottis is a bone that supports the jaw.

The epiglottis is a muscle that helps in breathing.

The epiglottis is a gland that produces saliva.

What are the two reasons that exercise increases your respiratory rate?

Increased oxygen demand and increased carbon dioxide production.

Lower body temperature and reduced blood flow.

Decreased heart rate and increased muscle fatigue.

Increased nutrient absorption and decreased energy expenditure.

When is a cough reflex triggered?

When anything besides air enters the larynx

When the throat is dry and needs moisture

Psychological reasons with no physical component

When carbon dioxide levels rise rapidly

How does emphysema affect the alveoli and respiration?

Emphysema destroys the walls of the alveoli, impairing gas exchange and making breathing difficult

Emphysema strengthens the alveoli, enhancing respiratory function.

Emphysema has no effect on the alveoli or respiration.

Emphysema causes the alveoli to become more elastic, improving gas exchange.

The C-shaped cartilage rings that line the trachea serve what two functions?

Support the trachea and keep the airway open, allow flexibility so the esophagus can expand when swallowing

Support the trachea and keep it open, Protect the lungs

Allow flexibility for movement, Produce mucus

If you are not acclimated to high altitudes what two things will happen to you first when you climb too high?

Hyperventilation and increased heart rate

Increased heart rate and improved stamina.

Enhanced vision and hyperventilation

Dehydration and increased appetite.

What changes in a person's body over time to acclimate to high altitudes?

Increased red blood cell production and increased capillary bed

Altered hemoglobin that is more efficient

Mitochondria become more efficient at producing ATP

How do you reverse an anaphylactic reaction?

Administer epinephrine immediately.

Wait for the symptoms to subside on their own.

Give the person water to drink.

Apply a cold compress to the area.

Why are respiratory viruses the number one cause of disease worldwide?

Airborne transmission is very effective so many viruses have evolved this trait.

They only affect the elderly and infants.

They are not easily treated with antibiotics.

The immune system is weaker in the lungs

What are the differences in the symptoms of someone experiencing HAPE vs HACE?

HAPE symptoms include shortness of breath, cough, chest pains, and blood saliva, while HACE symptoms include confusion and ataxia.

HAPE symptoms include dizziness and fatigue, while HACE symptoms include muscle cramps and joint pain.

HAPE symptoms are primarily gastrointestinal, while HACE symptoms are related to skin rashes.

HAPE symptoms include fever and headache, while HACE symptoms include nausea and vomiting.
