New cards

Pneumonia

Infection that inflames one or both air sacs(lungs) and can fill with liquid or pus. Caused by bacteria, virus, or fungi

12
New cards

Bronchitis

Inflammation in the bronchial tubes causing swelling and mucus buildup. Caused by virus or bacteria

13
New cards

Asthma

A condition where your airways narrow and swell, which may cause you to produce extra mucus.

14
New cards

Emphysema

A progressive lung disease where the alveoli in the lungs are damaged

15
New cards

Cystic fibrosis

A genetic disease that causes the body to produce unusually thick and sticky mucus

16
New cards

Arteriosclerosis

The thickening hardening and loss of elasticity in the walls of your arteries. It restricts blood to flow to your organs and tissues.

17
New cards

Aneurysm

A weak spot in a blood vessel that bulges and may burst

18
New cards

Heart valve disease

When the valves in the heart do not work properly and affect blood flow.

19
New cards

Arrhythmia

An irregular heartbeat that may be too fast, too slow, or uneven.

20
New cards

Heart murmur

An unusual sound made by blood flowing through the heart.

21
New cards

Stroke

When blood flow to the brain is blocked or a blood vessel bursts.

22
New cards

Hemophilia

A disorder where blood does not clot properly, causing extra bleeding.

23
New cards

Heart Attack

When blood flow to part of the heart is blocked, damaging the heart muscle.

24
New cards

Atrial Septal Defect

A hole in the wall between the upper chambers of the heart.

25
New cards

Leukemia

A cancer of the blood and bone marrow that affects white blood cells.

26
New cards

Peptic ulcer

A sore in the lining of the stomach or small intestine.

27
New cards

Crohn’s disease

A disease that causes swelling and irritation in the digestive system.

28
New cards

Ulcerative colitis

A disease that causes sores and inflammation in the large intestine.

29
New cards

Hepatitis

Inflammation of the liver, often caused by a virus.

30
New cards

Cirrhosis

Scarring of the liver that makes it hard for the liver to work.

31
New cards

Diabetes

A disease where the body cannot properly control blood sugar levels.

32
New cards

Nasal Cavity

Hollow space inside the nose lined with mucus and tiny hairs that warms, moistens, and filters air before it enters the lungs

33
New cards

Pharynx

Muscular tube at the back of the throat that is a passageway for air from the nose/mouth to the larynx

34
New cards

Epiglottis

Small flap of cartilage above the larynx that prevents food and liquid from entering the trachea when swallowing

35
New cards

Larynx

Cartilage structure containing the vocal cords and produces sound and directs air into the trachea

36
New cards

Trachea

Tube supported by C-shaped cartilage rings and carries air to and from the lungs

37
New cards

bronchus

Two large branches coming off the trachea that carry air into each lung

38
New cards

Bronchioles

Smaller branching tubes inside the lungs that distribute air throughout the lungs

39
New cards

Alveoli

Tiny air sacs with thin walls where gas exchange between air and blood happens

40
New cards

Capillaries

Very small blood vessels surrounding alveoli that exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with alveoli

41
New cards

Diaphragm

Dome-shaped muscle below the lungs and is the main muscle used for breathing, it contracts to draw air in

42
New cards

Rib Cage

Bones surrounding the chest and protect the lungs and heart and helps with breathing

43
New cards

Intercostal Muscles

Muscles located between the ribs and help expand and contract the chest during breathing

44
New cards

Pleura

Double-layered membrane around the lungs that reduces friction and protects the lungs during breathing

45
New cards

Inhalation

the process of breathing air into the lungs. It happens when the diaphragm contracts and the chest cavity expands, lowering pressure inside the lungs so air flows in.

46
New cards

Exhalation

the process of breathing air out of the lungs. It happens when the diaphragm relaxes and the chest cavity becomes smaller, increasing pressure inside the lungs so air is pushed out.

47
New cards

Cellular respiration

gases are exchanged to bring oxygen to your cells and to get rid of waste carbon dioxide

48
New cards

alveoli

Gas is exchanged in the_______

49
New cards

Internal respiration

gas exchange in capillary bed throughout body tissues

50
New cards

external respiration

gas exchange in lungs

51
New cards

52
New cards

regulate

Most of the time automatic mechanisms _______ our breathing

53
New cards

59
New cards

Tidal Volume

The volume of air that is inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing

60
New cards

Inspiratory Reserve Volume

The additional volume of air that can be inhaled

61
New cards
