DownloadWhat is the purpose of breathing or ventilation?
Flip card
The purpose of breathing or ventilation is to get oxygen (O2) into the lungs and remove carbon dioxide (CO2) produced in cellular metabolism.
What are the processes involved in breathing?
Flip card
The processes involved in breathing are diffusion, perfusion, gas transport, and respiration.
What is the function of the conducting system in the respiratory system?
Flip card
The conducting system, or airways, lead from the air to the lungs and are covered in a bonelike structure, allowing for minimal diffusion.
Where does perfusion take place in the respiratory system?
Flip card
Perfusion takes place in the alveoli, which lie in the respiratory zone.
How many lobes are there in the left lung and right lung?
Flip card
There are 2 lobes in the left lung and 3 lobes in the right lung (from a patients perspective).
What is the purpose of the pleura?
Flip card
The pleura is a kind of sack with pleural fluid that keeps the lungs moist and stuck together to the thoracic wall.
What is the atmospheric pressure?
Flip card
The atmospheric pressure (Patm) is set to 0 and is equal to 760 mmHg.
What is the intrapulmonary pressure?
Flip card
The intrapulmonary pressure (Ppul) inside the lungs is equal to the atmospheric pressure (Patm) when there is no air flow.
