What are conducting airways?
Conducting airways are made of nasal passages, mouth, pharanyx, laranyx, trachea, and bronchi/bronchioles.
What is the mucociliary blanket?
What does the mucociliary blanket entrap?
Dust, bacteria, and other foreign materials.
What is the larynx?
What are the vestibular folds?
The vestibular folds are protective.
What are vocal folds?
What is the epiglottis?
What is ventilation?
What is lung compliance?
What is a laminar or stream-lined airflow?
What is turbulent airflow?
What is a spirometer?
What is tidal volume and the characteristics?
What is an inspiratory reserve volume?
Inspiratory reserve volume is the maximum volume of air that can be inhaled after a normal inhalation. 3,000 mL in normal adults.
What is expiratory reserve volume?
Expiratory reserve volume is the maximum volume of air that can be exhaled after a normal expiration. 1,100 mL in a normal adult.
What is residual volume?
The volume of air remaining in the lungs after maximal exhalation. 1,200 mL in normal adults.
What is functional residual capacity?
Functional residual capacity is the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a normal expiration. 2,300 mL in normal adults.
What is inspiratory capacity?
Inspiratory capacity is the sum of tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume. Usually 3,500 mL in normal adults.
What is vital capacity?
Vital capacity is the maximum amount of air that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation. 4,600 mL in normal adults.
What is total lung capacity?
Total lung capacity is approximately 6 liters in an average adult. Is 5,000 mL in average adult.
What is maximal voluntary ventilation?
What is forced vital capacity?
What is forced midexpiratory flow rate?
What is maximum voluntary ventilation?
