Pharynx
Nasal cavities
What cavity is associated with the lungs, as it surrounds it?
Pleural cavity
Peritoneal cavity
Pericardial cavity
Mediastinal cavity
Which of the following most correctly describes the location of the choana?

A caudal ventral passage from the nasal cavity into the pharynx
Maxilla are bilaterally located across what structures within the nasal cavity?
Vomer and nasal septum
Vomer and nasal bone
Nasal bone and hard palate
Hard palate and common nasal meatus
Which of the following is true of the mucosa present within the nasal cavity?
Olfactory mucosa is present and subdivided into a dorsal and ventral concha
Dorsal and ventral conchae area associated with humidifying and filter the air entering the body and traveling through the cribriform foramina to the trachea
Olfactory mucosa is located along the ethmoconchae and is associated with sensory functions of odoriferous substances
Mucosa associated with the nasal cavities does not communicate with paranasal sinuses
You are presented a patient with a growth extending rostrally from the epiglottis. How would you describe this growth?
Oropharyngeal neoplasia
Nasopharyngeal neoplasia
Laryngopharyngeal neoplasia
Laryngeal neoplasia
The soft palate is a division between what two cavities?
laryngopharynx and nasopharynx
Laryngopharynx and larynx
Nasopharynx and oropharynx
oropharynx and laryngopharynx
What structure prevents the passage of masticated food particles from descending into the trachea?
Soft palate
Epiglottis
Tongue
Chonanae
Surgical intervention was required for your 7 year old, MN american bulldog patient. What was performed based on following pre- and post-surgical (ET tube still placed) photos you took for your medical records?
Reduction of the epiglottis to decrease respiratory efforts due to hypoventilation
Reduction of the soft palate to decrease respiratory efforts due to hyperventilation
Removal of the tonsils to prevent chronic infections within the oral cavity
Removal of the ethmoidal conchae to reduce airway obstruction due to hyperventilation
True or False: The trachea is attached to the larynx, which is only suspended to the pharynx.
True
False
True or False: The rima glottis creates a space that is known as the glottis.
True
False
Which of the following is true of the image?
Number 8 is known as the epiglottis which is directly attached to thyroid cartilage
Number 10 represents the trachea which is attached directly to thyroid cartilage
Number 1, 2, 3, and 5, are divisions of the bones that are commonly known as the hyoid bone
Number 9 represents the cricoid cartilage which suspends the larynx from the pharynx
7a is associated with what cartilage of the larynx?
Cricoid
Artyenoid
Thyroid
Epiglottic
You observe the following neoplasia rostrally to the glottis, and caudally on the epiglottis. What cavity would it be located in?
Vestibule
Infraglottic
Oropharynx
Nasopharynx
The following image was viewed on a horse during inspiration when exercising. What can be inferred from the following image?
Left muscle paralysis as the associated arytenoid cartilage is obstructing the horses airway
Right muscle paralysis as the associated arytenoid cartilage is obstructing the horses airway
Epiglottic muscle paralysis as the cartilage is unable to seal the airway to prevent aspiration of food particles
An elongated soft palate obstructing the passage of air within the conducting system of respiratory tract
Which of the following is true of the structure number ten?
It is composed of complete cartilaginous rings
Is associated with smooth muscle in its lining
It is located on the medial plane, and in the ventral aspect of the neck
Composed of several lobular division from principal to lobar to segmented lobes
The following bronchioles represent respiratory bronchioles, since they are in association with the respiratory units of the lungs. What structures proceed the respiratory bronchioles?
Terminal bronchioles
Lobar bronchi
Principal bronchi
The trachea
You take radiographs of your wheezing 11 year old, FS DLH patient, and observe the following radiographs. In which of the following lobes do you not see heavy fluid infiltration (white, opaque coloration)?
Caudal right lobe
Caudal left lobe
Cranial left lobe
Caudal, cranial left lobe
Which of the following is not true from the following image?
The right lung is depicted and is involved with the formation of the cardiac notch
The left lung is not visible, but contains two primary lobes and a subdivision of its cranial lobe
Visceral or pulmonary pleura is present along the endothelial surface of the walls of the thoracic cavity
The pulmonary arteries will deliver deoxygenated blood to the lung, while the pulmonary arteries will see the return of oxygenated blood to the heart (all of which can't be seen)
Which of the following is true of the pleura within the thoracic cavity? Select all that apply.
Prevent friction between the thoracic wall and lungs
Creates a fluid filled sac called the pleural cavity
Parietal pleura are found along the walls of the thoracic cavity
Visceral pleura is only the lining of the lungs
