Total Lung Capacity (TLC)

maximum amount of air contained in lungs after a maximum inspiratory effort

New cards
2

Tidal Volume (TV)

volume of normal involuntary breath

New cards
3

Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV)

Amount of air that can be forcefully inhaled after a normal tidal volume inhalation

New cards
4

Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV)

Amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled after a normal tidal volume exhalation

New cards
5

Residual Volume (RV)

Amount of air remaining in the lungs after a forced exhalation

New cards
6

Vital capcity (VC)

The amount of air that can be forcibly expelled from the lungs after breathing in as deeply as possible.

New cards
7

cilia

tiny hair like system that move mucus towards the throat, this sends all pathogens to the stomach to be killed

New cards
8

gastroesophageal sphincter

Muscle that connects the esophagus and stomach, and helps keep the stomach from entering the esophagus

New cards
9

layers of the stomach

mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa

New cards
10

self digestion

the body tries to prevent this by secreting thick layer of mucus for a protective coat that prevents gastric juice from reaching cells of the stomach wall - the alkalinity of mucus helps neutralize the hydrochloric acid

New cards
11

chyme

mixture of enzymes and partially-digested food

New cards
12

stomach ulcers

the bacteria Helicobacter pylori can survive stomach acid, they move in the mucosa and prevent cells from making mucus which can burn the stomach lining

New cards
13

structure of villi

capillary wall and lacteal which is connected to the lymphatic system

New cards
14

villi

Fingerlike extensions of the intestinal mucosa that increase the surface area for absorption

New cards
15

human blood contains 2 components:

cellular component: red and white blood cells, platelets intercellular matrix: plasma

New cards
16

plasma is made up of:

CO2, O2, proteins, nutrients, molecules, and waste

New cards
17

macrophages

these destroy red blood cells once theyre too old

New cards
18

left side of heart is:

oxygenated blood

New cards
19

types of teeth in the human mouth

incisors, canines, premolars and molars

New cards
20

bolus

A soft mass of chewed food.

New cards
21

pharyngeal muscles

muscles that contract involuntarily to force bolus down esophagus, this process is called peristalsis

New cards
22

epiglottis

A flap of tissue that seals off the windpipe and prevents food from entering.

New cards
23

gastric juice

contains pepsin pepsinogen which are enzymes that digest protein.

New cards
24

intrinsic factor

A substance produced by the mucosa of the stomach and intestines that is essential for the absorption of vitamin B12.

New cards
25

duodenum

small intestine, bile and pancreatic juice added.

New cards
26

jejunum

small intestine, intestinal glands release carbohydrase and peptidase

New cards
27

ileum

the last and longest portion of the small intestine

New cards
28

external intercostal muscles

A muscle that raises the rib cage, decreasing pressure inside the chest cavity

New cards
29

atria

upper chambers of the heart, they receive blood from the veins and have thinner walls

New cards
30

ventricle

lower chamber of the heart, they receive blood from the atria and pump it into the arteries

New cards
31

left ventricle

pumps oxygenated blood to the body

New cards
32

right ventricle

pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs

New cards
33

anterior

towards the head

New cards
34

posterior

toward the hind end

New cards
35

dorsal

the upper surface/back

New cards
36

ventral

the lower surface/belly

New cards
37

lateral

the sides

New cards
38

superficial

close to the surface

New cards
39

proximal

close to

New cards
40

distal

far from

New cards
41

pectoral

the shoulder area

New cards
42

pelvic

the hip area

New cards
43

sagittal plane

New cards
44

transverse plane

New cards
45

a male pig has

  • swelling, at the posterior end of the body between the upper ends of the hind legs

  • urogenital opening is found posterior to the umbilical chord

  • penis is seen or felt under skin, protruding through urogenital opening

New cards
46

a female pig has

  • urogenital opening is situated ventral to the anus opening

  • small fleshy genital tubercle projects from the urogenital aperture

New cards
47

week of gestation of a pig can be determined by

measuring the snout to base of the tail

New cards
48

how many lobes does a pig liver have

4

New cards
49

how many lobes of the right and left lung does a pig have

the left has 2 lobes and the right has 4

New cards
50

membrane covering the heart

pericardium

New cards
51

a pig umbilical chord has

2 arteries and 1 vein

New cards
52

how does the trachea and esophagus differ

the trachea is longer and has 2 parts, the esophagus has 3 parts
