it has four openings
two auditory or eustachian and two posterior nares
what are the openings of nasopharynx
one
oropharynx has how many openings
Oropharynx
it is behind the mouth

Laryngopharynx
it has two openings
larynx and esophagus
the openings of the Laryngopharynx is located in ?
Laryngopharynx
serves as passageway into respiratory and digestive tracts
nasopharynx
tonsils can be found in ?
Tonsils
this destroys incoming bacteria and detoxify foreign protein
Larynx
box-like cartilaginous structure
pharynx
Larynx is located below ?
Adam’s apple
Thyroid cartilage is also known as ?
lid cartilage

signet ring
Cricoid cartilage is also known as ?
pyramid shaped
Arytenoid cartilage is also known as ?
vocal cords
What does the thyroid cartilage protect that is also behind it?
Epiglottis
a flap in the throat that keeps food from entering the windpipe and the lungs
Cricoid cartilage
functions as an attachment site for muscles, cartilage, and ligaments involved in opening and closing the airway and in producing speech
Arytenoid cartilage
attachment to vocal cords that allows and aid the vocal cords’ movement
Vocal Cords
The slit-like opening between the vocal cords in the glottis that allows air to pass in and out of the lower respiratory passages.
mucus lining
False vocal cord has folds of ?
vestibular folds
False vocal cord is also called as ?
True vocal cord
fibro elastic bands stretched across the interior of the larynx

Lungs is covered by ?
Lungs
completely fill the pleural spaces extending from slightly above the clavicle to the diaphragm
Diaphragm
this is where the base of the lungs rest
Bronchi
right and left formed by branching of trachea
Bronchioles
smaller branches of bronchi
Alveolar ducts
microscopic branches of bronchioles
Alveoli
microscopic sacs at the ends of the alveolar ducts provided with a network of lung capillaries

Residual Air is ? ml
Minimal Air
the volume of gas that remains in the lungs and cannot be expelled after they have been removed from the body, or after the chest has been opened
Vital Capacity

thoracic cavity
Vital Capacity varies with the size of ?
Eupnea/Eupnoea
normal quite breathing
Apnea
temporary cessation of breathing

inability to breath easily in horizontal position
Tachypnea
excessively rapid and shallow breathing
Bradypnea
abnormal slow breathing
Respiratory system
responsible for gas exchange (oxygen in, carbon dioxide out), helping maintain homeostasis.
Respiratory system
It works closely with the circulatory system to deliver oxygen to tissues and remove waste gases.
Nose
Filters, warms, and moistens air.
Pharynx
Passageway for air and food.
Larynx
Prevents food from entering the airway (via the epiglottis) and produces sound.
Trachea
Tube leading to lungs; has cartilage rings to keep it open.
Bronchi
Branches from the trachea into each lung.
Bronchioles
Smaller airways inside lungs.
Alveoli
Tiny air sacs where gas exchange occurs.
Pharynx
Directs air toward the trachea
Bronchi
Directs air into each lung
capillaries
