collapsed lung

atelectasis

in hypoxemia -emia means

in the term atelectasis atel means

incomplete

To compensate for metabolic acidosis, respiration will

Increase to exhale more CO2

dyspnea

shortness of breath

Stimulate the diaphragm and cause it to contract

phrenic nerve

Walking pneumonia caused by

mycoplasma

cystic fibrosis characterised by

abnormally thick mucus in the lungs

To compensate for metabolic acidosis, respiration will

Increase to exhale more CO2

Gas exchange by simple diffusion is possible because of

squamous epithelial cells

The bronchioles do not have smooth muscles in their walls, only epithelium

false

The gas that is the most important chemical regulator of respiration is

CO2 because if present in access it lowers the pH of body fluids

Most carbon dioxide is transported in the blood

as bicarbonate ions in the plasma

During inhalation the thoracic cavity is enlarged from top to bottom by

diaphragm which moves down

trachea is kept open by

cartilage

during the swallowing the larynx is covered by

epiglottis
