What is actually happening during an asthma attack?

airway fills with mucus causing airway muscles to contract resulting in swelling

How do we change our voice’s pitch?

increase/decrease tension of our vestibular folds

How do we change our voice’s loudness?

force more or less air out

What are serous membranes?

tissues that line certain internal cavities

What do serous membranes do?

lubricate the membrane to reduce friction from other organs/cavity wall

What happens during inspiration/breathing in?

increased thoracic volume→decreased pleural pressure→increased alveolar volume→decreased alveolar pressure→air flows into lungs

What happens during expiration/breathing out?

decreased thoracic volume→increased pleural pressure→decreased alveolar volume→increased alveolar pressure→air flows out of lungs

What is a surfactant?

surface acting agent

What do surfactants do?

prevent lung collapse by reducing surface tension of alveoli which keeps them open making respiration easier

What organs are a part of the lymphatic system?

tonsils, nodes, spleen, thymus

What does SIV and other immunodeficiency disorders have to do with the lymphatic system?

the lymphatic system regulates the immune system

What protein stabilizes binding and does a “double handshake?”

t cells

What type of cell sends chemical signals between cells that are being activated?

cytotoxic t cells

What is the CO2 transport equation?

CO2+H2O→HCO3-+H+

What is hyperventilation?

rapid breathing resulting in exhaling more CO2 than inhaling

What do precapillary sphincters do?

regulate blood flow and capillaries

What are precapillary sphincters?

smooth muscle cells that help blood flow to capillaries

What are small veins called?

venules

What are small arteries called?

arterioles

What is the difference between a vein and an artery?

arteries carry blood away from the heart while veins carry blood back to the heart
