Check all statements that are true of "recoil": correct answers 1. It is a passive force exerted on
the tissue.
2. Tissue is returning to its original rest position.
3. It occurs when muscles relax.
What role does Boyle's law play in respiration? correct answers When we inhale, the pressure
within the lungs decreases as the volume of air increases.
, Describe how inspiration occurs. correct answers When we inhale, we make the lungs larger
which will increase the volume. This decreases pressure in the lungs, and causes air flow inward
from the atmosphere.
Describe how expiration occurs. correct answers When we exhale, it makes lungs smaller which
will decrease the volume. This increases pressure in the lungs and causes air flow outward.
Intrapleural pressure correct answers Pressure within the pleural cavity. Always negative,
increasing in negativity during inspiration.
Negative alveolar pressure correct answers During inspiration, expansion of the thorax decreases
the already negative intrapleural pressure, and the increased lung volume results in a negative
alveolar pressure.
Positive alveolar pressure correct answers During expiration, this pressure differential is
reversed, with air escaping the lungs to equalize the positive alveolar pressure with the relatively
negative atmospheric pressure.
Atmospheric pressure correct answers Pressure of the atmosphere generated by its weight;
approximately 760 mm Hg.
Pelvic girdle correct answers
Pectoral girdle correct answers
Trachea correct answers The trachea is a flexible tube composed of a series of 16 to 20 hyaline
cartilage rings. This tube runs from the inferior border of the larynx for about 11 cm, where it
divides to become the left and right bronchial tubes.
Lungs correct answers Two lobes within the chest wall where the exchange between CO2 and
oxygen happen.
Bronchioli correct answers Smallest branches of the bronchi.
What are alveoli? correct answers At the very terminal end of the branches in the lungs is the
alveoli, they are little sacs of air where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occur.
What is the alveoli's function, how do they work? correct answers Used blood is coming through
the veins from the tissues with red blood cells carrying carbon dioxide. When you inhale, you get
oxygen into the alveoli where the capillaries can bring the blood cells to the membrane to
exchange them.
What keeps alveoli from collapsing? correct answers They remain open because they are filled
with surfactant.
