ANP2 lab respitory structures

What does the respitory system bring into the body?

what does the respitory system eliminate from the body?

what transports the gases

what is oxygen transported to?

where is carbon dioxide transported to?

the space within and postierior to external nose

muscular tube extending from the nasal cavity to the esophagus

external openings leading to nasal openings

the repitory tube that extends from the larynx to the main primary branch

part of the respitory passageway located between the trachea and the pharynx. It keeps airway open and prevents food from entering airway

one of two large respitory tubes that branches from the trachea and enters a lung

one of the paired respitory system organs in which gas exchange occurs (right)

one of the paired respitory system organs in which gas exchange occurs (left)

the muscle that seperates the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelivic cavity. It contracts during respiration.

the serous membrane which covers the external surface of each lung

the serous membrane which liunes the thoracic wall and the mediastinum and covers the superior surface of the diapragm on each side of the thoracic cavity

the region of the thoracic cavity between the lungs

the slit-like space between the viseral and parietal pluerae

serous lubricating fluid within the plueral cavity. Secreted by the pluerae

what are the branching airways of the lungs called?

one of the two large respitory tubes tubes (right and left) that branches from the trachea and enters a lung

a respitory tube that branches from a main bronchus and leads iunto one lung lobe

respitory tube that branches from a secondary bronchus and leads to one bronchopulminary segment of the lung 

a very small air passage without supporting cartilage

the smallest, final type of bronchiole in the conducting zone

the lung region containing avioli, where gas exchange takes place

thin walled air filled sacs in which gas exchange takes place

clusters of alveoli that open into a common space

what vessels carry blood that is low in oxygen from the heart to the lungs 

what blood vessels completely surround each alveolus

what gases are exchanged between the air in the alveoli and the blood in the pulmonary capillaries

what vessels carry oxigenated blood back to the heart?

what is the strong attraction between water molecules at the surface of aveolar fluid called 

what does surfactant do to the surface tension of alveolar fluid 

what would an alveolus do if it were lined with pure watrer

what makes up respiratory membrane 

what does oxygen and carbondioxide do accrossthe respitory membrane?
