Aveolar Sacs
Clusters of thin walled air sacs ( alveoli) at the end of the bronchioles in mammalian lungs where gas exchange with the blood occrus.
Tiny air sacs mammal lungs where gas exchange happens
Alveoli = gas exchange
Book Lungs
Respiratory open found in spider and some other arachnids, made of stacked, blood filled leaf like plates that exchange gases with air in a chamber
Respiratory organs in spider/arachnids made of stacked plates for gas exchange
Spider = Book lungs
Buccopharyngeal pressure
Breathing mechanism used by amphibians in which the floor of the mouth is raised to force air into the lungs ( rather than using a diaphragm to pull air in )
Amphibians raise the floor of their mouth to push air into the lungs
Amphibian = Mouth pump
Cutaneous Respiration
Gas exchange that occrus directly across the skin
Diaphragmatic Breathing
Breathing methods in mammals in which contraction/ relaxation of the diaphdram changes thoracic cavity volume, drawing air into and pushing it out of the lungs
Mammals use the diaphragm to change lung volume and move air
Mammals= diaphragm
Expiratory Reserve Volume
The additional volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled after a normal, passive exhalation. Biggest exhale
Extra air you can force out after a normal exhale
Exhale= Biggest exhale
Gills
Respiratory organs that extract dissovled oxygen from water, usually via countercurrent exchange. Extend into breathing medium
Structures that take 02 from water
Gills= water
Inspiratory Reserve volume
THe additional volume of air that can be forcibly inhaled after a normal inhalation. Biggest inhale
Extra air you can force in after a normal inhale
Inhale= biggest inhale
Lungs
Invaginated, internal, sac like or spongy respiratory organs
Internal, sac like respiratory organs used for gas exchange
Lungs= air
Multicameral
Type of lung structure with multiple internal chambers. compartments ( many chambers), as opposed to unicameral: increase surface area for gas exchange.
Lungs with many chambers, increasing surface area
Multi= many
Parabronchi
Small air passages in bird lungs through which air flows in a continuous, largely one directional path, allowing highly efficient gas exchange.
Small air passages in bird lungs where air flows and gas exchange occrus
Birds= Parabronchi
Residual Volume
The volume of air that remains in the lungs after the most forceful possible exhalation; cannot be voluntarily expelled.
Air that stays in the lungs after the strongest exhale
Residual = Remains
Respiratory Exchange membranes
Separates internal tissues of the animal & evironment. Thin, moist surfaces across which gases diffuse between an organism and its evironment
Thin, moist surfaces where 02 and CO2 diffuse between the animal and evironment
Spiracle
External opening of the tracheal system in insects and some other arthropods, through which air enter and exits
Opening where air enter/ exits insects
Insect= spiracle
Tida volume
The volume of air move into or out of the lungs during a single, normal resting breath
Air moved during one normal breath
Tidal = normal breathing
Tracheal System
Network of internal air filled tubules ( Tracheae) in insects that delivers air directly to tissues, bypassing the cirulatory system for gas transport
Tubes in insects that carry air directly to tissues
Insect tubes = Cells
Unicameral
Type of lung structure with a single internal chamber ( one large open space) as opposed to multicameral
Lung with one chamber
Uni= one
Ventilation
Mass flow of air or water to from membrane
Moement of air or water to and from the respiratory membrane
Ventilation= Moving air/ water
