1 Inhalation + 1 Exhalation =
1 Respiration (((Ventilation)
NHALATION
Ribs rise, diaphragm goes down→
Increases the size of the thoracic cavit
Decrease pressure thoracic →
Lungs expand→
Air goes in
EXHALATION
Ribs go down, diaphragm go up→
Decreases the size of the thoracic cavity →
Increases the pressure in the thoracic cavity →
Lungs deflate→
Air is forced out
pressure
Molecules move from an area of HIGH pressure TO an area of LOW pressure
INHALE:
Outside pressure is higher
EXHALE:
Inside pressure is higher
pharyc, larynx?
Pharynx (throat)
Larynx (voice box)
Epiglottis
Covers the trachea when swallowing to prevent choking
Trachea
Also known as the windpipe
Connects the larynx to the bronchi
Bronchi
Branches from the trachea and lead to each lung
Lungs
Right- 3 Lobes
Left- 2 Lobes
Alveoli
Diffusion of gasses (O2 and CO2) occurs
Surrounded by blood vessels
Capillaries
Arteries
Veins
This is where the circulatory and
respiratory systems work together
asmtha
Inflames and narrows the airways and produces more mucus.
Symptoms:
Periods of coughing
Treatment:
Antibiotics
Use of an inhaler
Bronchitis
nflammation of the bronchi in the lungs.
Causes:
Genetics
Air pollution
Respiratory infection
Deficient antibody levels
Treatment:
Antibiotics
Inhalers
Emphysema
Alveoli become damaged and eventually merge together to form large air sacs with reduced overall volume.
Patients develop a barrel chest.
Generally caused by:
cigarette smoking
pollution
industrial dust particles
COPD
Progressive disease that makes it hard to breathe.
causes= Long-term exposure to irritating gases or matter that is in the air (particulate matter).
Most often from cigarette smoke.
lung cancer
Uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung.
Growth may spread to adjacent tissues and beyond the lungs – Metastasis.
Tuberculosis (Tb)
aused by Bacterium- Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Transmission:
Droplet
Airborne
Symptoms: (may be vague)
Weight loss
Fever
Night sweats
Loss of appetite
