18
New cards

during inhalation

the ribcage moves downward

19
New cards

the actual exchange of gases occurs at the

alveoli

20
New cards

breathing is an involuntary action under the control of the

medulla oblongata

New cards

as air passes through the nasal passages, the mucus and hairs do not filter out

moisture

22
New cards

what prevents the trachea from collapsing

c-rings of cartilage

23
New cards

alveoli

24
New cards

correct sequence

nasal passages,trachea,bronchi,bronchioles alveoli,blood celss

25
New cards

gas exchanges occurs when

oxygen in the alveoli diffuses into the blood in the capillaries
