New cards

1 Inhalation + 1 Exhalation = 

1 Respiration (((Ventilation)

2
New cards

NHALATION

  • Ribs rise, diaphragm goes down→ 

  • Increases the size of the thoracic cavit

  • Decrease pressure thoracic → 

  • Lungs expand→ 

  • Air goes in

3
New cards

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

4
New cards

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

5
New cards

pharyc, larynx?

  • Pharynx (throat)


Larynx (voice box)

6
New cards
  • Epiglottis

  • Covers the trachea when swallowing to prevent choking

7
New cards
  • Trachea

  • Also known as the windpipe

  • Connects the larynx to the bronchi

8
New cards
  • Bronchi

  • Branches from the trachea and lead to each lung

9
New cards
  • Lungs

  • Right- 3 Lobes

  • Left- 2 Lobes

10
New cards
  • 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

11
New cards

asmtha

  • Inflames and narrows the airways and produces more mucus. 

  • Symptoms:

    • Periods of coughing

  • Treatment:

    • Antibiotics

    • Use of an inhaler

12
New cards

Bronchitis

nflammation of the bronchi in the lungs.

Causes:

  • Genetics

  • Air pollution

  • Respiratory infection

  • Deficient antibody levels

Treatment:

  • Antibiotics

  • Inhalers

13
New cards

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


14
New cards

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.

15
New cards

lung cancer

  • Uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung.

  • Growth may spread to adjacent tissues and beyond the lungs – Metastasis.  

16
New cards

Tuberculosis (Tb)

aused by Bacterium- Mycobacterium tuberculosis

  • Transmission:

    • Droplet 

    • Airborne 

  • Symptoms: (may be vague)

    • Weight loss

    • Fever

    • Night sweats

    • Loss of appetite
