Mechanics of Breathing

Volume changes lead to ______________________________ changes, which lead
to the flow of gases to ______________________ the pressure.

Pulmonary ventilation consists of two phases

______________________________: gases flow into the lungs

______________________________: gases exit the lungs
Inspiration

An __________________________ process

Inspiratory muscles (diaphragm and external intercostals) _______________

Thoracic volume ______________________________

Lungs are ____________________________ because of the surface tension of
the fluid between the pleural membranes

As intrapulmonary volume (volume within the lungs) increases, gases within the
lungs ___________________________________________________________

Intrapulmonary pressure ________________________ below atmospheric
pressure producing a partial vacuum which sucks air into the lungs

Boyle's Law: pressure and volume of a gas are ____________________
proportional

Air flows into the lungs, down its pressure gradient, until
____________________________ pressure = ____________________ pressure
Expiration

A ______________________________ process that depends more on the natural
elasticity of the lungs than muscle _________________________________

Inspiratory muscles ____________________

Rib cage _____________________ and lungs ____________________

Thoracic cavity volume _____________________

Intrapulmonary volume _____________________

Intrapulmonary pressure _________________________ higher than
______________________ pressure

Gases flow out to ___________________ pressure inside and outside the lungs

Forced expiration is an active process

__________________ (passageways narrow) or chronic bronchitis or
pneumonia (passageways ________________ with mucus or fluid)

Intercostal muscles ___________________
Homeostatic Imbalance

Intrapleural pressure is always ______________________ which is the major factor
preventing _______________ of the lungs

if it ever becomes ________________- to the atmospheric pressure, lungs
immediately ________________ completely and ____________________

_____________________________ (lung collapse) is due to

_________________ bronchioles
______________________ of alveoli

wound that admits air into pleural cavity (pneumothorax)
Nonrespiratory Air Movements

Most result from _______________________ action

Coughs and sneezes clear the air passages of _______________________________

Laughing and crying reflect our _______________________________

______________________________ are due to spasms of the diaphragm from
irritation

sound occurs when inspired air hits vocal folds of _______________________

Yawn is very deep inspiration that ventilates all ______________________
Respiratory Volumes and Capacities

Factors that affect respiratory capacity

person's _________, _______________, ________________ and physical
__________________

Normal breathing moves about ______________________ of air into and out of the
lungs with each breath

Tidal volume (TV): respiratory volume of ___________________ breath

Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV): amount of air that can be taken
_____________________ over the tidal inspiration

normally between _______________________________________

Expiratory reserve volume (ERV): amount of air that can be
_______________________________ after tidal expiration

Residual volume: air that cannot be _______________________ expelled

important because it allows gas exchange to go on __________________
and keeps alveoli _________________

Vital capacity (VC): the sum of the ________________________________

typically around ________________ for healthy young men
Dead Space

amount of air that enters the respiratory tract that remains in the
___________________ zone passageways and never reach the ________________

About ___________________

The ________________________ volume (air that actually contributes to gas
exchange) is about ________________________-
Pulmonary Function Tests

_______________________: instrument used to measure respiratory volumes and
capacities

____________________________ can distinguish between

Obstructive pulmonary disease—increased airway ___________________
(e.g., bronchitis)

Restrictive disorders—reduction in total lung ___________________ due to
structural or functional lung changes (e.g., fibrosis or TB)
Respiratory Sounds

Produced as air flows into and out of the __________________________________

Bronchial sounds:

produced by air rushing through the large respiratory passageways
(____________________ and ________________________)

Vesicular breathing sounds:

occur as air fills ______________________

soft and resemble _________________________________________

Wheezing:

________________________ sound that usually occur during
_______________________

results from narrowing of airways often from ___________________
External Respiration, Gas Transport, and Internal Respiration

External respiration: actual exchange of gases between ___________________ and
________________________

Alveoli always has more ____________________ so moves into the blood

Carbon dioxide is higher in _________________________ capillaries than in
alveolar air so will move from blood into the ___________________ and be
flushed out during expiration

Oxygen transport in blood

most attach to _______________________ in RBCs to form oxyhemoglobin
(HbO2)



the other small amount is carried dissolved in the ________________
Carbon dioxide transport in blood

most is transported in plasma as ______________________________ (HCO3-)

the rest binds to ______________________
Bicarbonate ions enter RBC, combine with __________________ ions to form
_______________________________ which splits to form water and carbon dioxide
that then diffuse from the blood and enter the alveoli
Homeostatic Imbalance

Hypoxia

inadequate oxygen delivery to ________________________

in fair skinned people skin turns __________________

dark skinned people can be seen in __________________

may be result of ___________________, pulmonary disease or impaired blood
_____________________

Carbon monoxide poisoning

unique type of _____________________

bonds with hemoglobin instead of ___________________

leading cause of death from _______________

skin may turn ________________________
External Respiration, Gas Transport, and Internal Respiration

______________________ respiration: gas exchange process between systemic
capillaries and the tissue cells

______________________ is unloaded and
______________________________ is loaded into the blood

Carbon dioxide diffuses __________________ tissue cells and into blood
where it combines with water to form _________________________, which
quickly releases _______________________- ions

bicarbonate ions diffuse out into ___________________, where they are
transported

oxygen is released from ____________________ and diffuses quickly out of
the blood into ___________________________
Control of Respiration

Involves neurons in the ________________ and ________________

medulla is the _____________________ and sets the basic rhythm of breathing

its neurons fire an impulse that excite the ____________________ and
external intercostal muscles


maintains normal rate (_____________________) of 12-15
respirations/minute

pons centers smooth out basic rhythm of inspiration and expiration set by the
_____________________
__________________________: more vigorous and deep breathing (like during
exercise) because brain centers send more impulses to the respiratory muscles
Non-neural Factors Influencing Respiration

Physical factors such as ________________________________________________

_____________________ body temperature causes an increase in rate of breathing

Volition (___________________ control) but _____________________ controls
soon take over

Emotional factors can initiate _____________________- that act through the
hypothalamus

Chemical factors dealing with the levels of __________________ and
_______________________ in the blood

increased levels of carbon dioxide and _________________ blood pH
stimulate _________________ rate and depth of breathing (hyperventilation)
which can lead to brief periods of _________________ (cessation of breathing)
