[Understanding Key Terms, p.185] EXTENDED LECTURE OUTLINE 9.1 Respiratory Tract Air filtered and warmed as it is conducted through a series of passages on its way to the lungs. The Nose The two nasal cavities, which contain receptor cells, receive tear ducts from eyes and communicate with sinuses. The auditory tube from middle ear communicates with the nasopharynx. The nose warms and cleanses incoming air. The Pharynx The pharynx, a passageway from the nasal cavities to oral cavities, and to the larynx, contains the tonsils. The pharynx takes air from the nose to larynx; takes food from the oral cavity to esophagus. The Larynx The epiglottis covers the glottis an opening to the larynx which contains vocal cords. The Trachea The trachea, supported by C-shaped cartilaginous rings, is lined by ciliated cells which sweep impurities up to the throat. The trachea takes air to the bronchial tree. The Bronchial Tree Two primary bronchi, which divide into ever smaller bronchioles, conduct air to and in lungs. The Lungs The lungs are paired, cone-shaped organs within the thoracic cavity. The Alveoli The alveoli are the air sacs lined by squamous epithelium and surrounded by blood capillaries. Alveoli function in gas exchange. Premature infants often suffer from respiratory distress syndrome. 46 Mader VRL CD-ROM Image 0170l.jpg (Fig. 9.1) Image 0171al.jpg (Fig. 9.2) Image 0171bl.jpg (Fig. 9.2) Image 0171cl.jpg (Fig. 9.2) Image 0172al.jpg (Fig. 9.3) Image 0172bl.jpg (Fig. 9.3) Image 0173l.jpg (Fig. 9.4) Image 0174l.jpg (Fig. TA9.1) Image 0175l.jpg (Fig. 9.5) Dynamic Human 2.0 CD-ROM Respiratory/Anatomy/3D Viewer Respiratory/Anatomy/Gross Anatomy Respiratory/Anatomy/Nasal Cavity Respiratory/Anatomy/Trachea Respiratory/Clinical Concepts/Bronchoscopy Respiratory/Anatomy/Lung Respiratory/Anatomy/Bronchiole Mader ESP Modules Online Respiratory/Anatomy/ Alveoli Animal Biology/Respiratory System/Human Respiratory Tract Animal Biology/Respiratory System/Respiration Animal Biology/Respiratory System/Bronchoscopy Animals/Respiration/Human Breathing Transparencies 127 (Fig. 9.2) Life Science Animations VRL 2.0 128 (Fig.9.3) 129 (Fig. 9.4) 130 (Fig. TA9.1) 131 (Fig. 9.5) 9.2 Mechanism of Breathing Respiratory Volumes The tidal volume is the normal amount of air moved in and out of the lungs. Vital capacity is the maximum amount of air moved in and out. Inspiratory reserve volume is the maximum amount of inspired air and the expiratory reserve volume is the maximum amount of expired air Inspiration and Expiration The thoracic cavity is bounded by the rib case and diaphragm; pleural membranes line the thoracic cavity and lungs. Inspiration When we inhale (inspiration) impulses from respiratory center in the medulla oblongata cause the rib cage to rise and the diaphragm to lower: the thoracic cavity expands and air comes in. Presence of CO 2 and H+ increases breathing rate. Expiration When we exhale (expiration), lack of impulses from respiratory center causes rib cage to lower and diaphragm to resume dome shape. Elastic recoil of muscle increases pressure in the thoracic cavity and expiration occurs. 47 Mader VRL CD-ROM Image 0176l.jpg (Fig. 9.6) Image 0177l.jpg (Fig. 9A) Image 0178l.jpg (Fig. 9.7) Image 0179l.jpg (Fig. 9.8) Dynamic Human 2.0 CD-ROM Respiratory/Explorations/Mechanics of Breathing Respiratory/Clinical Concepts/Spirometry Life Science Animations VRL 2.0 Animal Biology/Respiratory System/ Inspiration Versus Expiration Animal Biology/Respiratory System/ Breathing_1 Animal Biology/Respiratory System/ Breathing_2 Mader ESP Modules Online Animals/Respiration/Human Breathing Transparencies 132 (Fig. 9.6) 133 (Fig. 9Aa, b) 134 (Fig. 9.7) 135 (Fig. 9.8) 9.3 Gas Exchanges in the Body External Respiration External respiration is the diffusion of CO2 from pulmonary capillaries into alveolar sacs and O2 from alveolar sacs into pulmonary capillaries. Internal Respiration Internal respiration is the diffusion of O2 from systemic capillaries into tissues and CO2 from tissue fluid into systemic capillaries. Binding Capacity of Hemoglobin The partial pressure of gases, temperature, and pH affect binding capacity of hemoglobin. The high pressure of oxygen, the low temperature and pH aid the binding of oxygen to hemoglobin in the lungs. The opposite is true in the tissues.

The excretion of carbon dioxide by the lungs helps regulate the pH of the blood. A Human Systems Work Together box shows how the respiratory system works with other systems in the body to maintain homeostasis. 49 Mader VRL CD-ROM Image 0190al.jpg (Fig. TA9.6) Image 0190bl.jpg (Fig. TA9.6) Image 0191l.jpg (Fig. TA9.7) Image 0192l.jpg (Fig. 9.8) Transparencies 140 (Fig. TA9.1) 141 (Fig. TA9.2) SEVENTH EDITION CHANGES New/Revised Text: This was chapter 8 in the previous edition. 9.3 The introductory paragraph was rewritten to emphasize the contribution of gas exchange to homeostasis. 9.5 Homeostasis has been rewritten and clearly explains how the respiratory system regulates pH and immunity.

Invite a respiratory therapist to class. Ask her to describe the most prevalent respiratory problems in your area. Ask her to describe the types of treatments she administers. Discuss the educational requirements to become a respiratory therapist. Do Smokers Have Rights? 2. Students should read the Ecology Focus, “Photochemical Smog Can Kill,” and the Health Focus, “The Most Often Asked Questions About Smoking, Tobacco, and Health, and The Answers,” before coming to class. Have them make a list of similar gases in photochemical smog and cigarette smoke. They are to conclude that both are types of polluted air and that both can be dangerous to health. Have them list all the illnesses that can result from smoking cigarettes, and ask them to consider the following questions: a. Do smokers have a right to smoke when it pollutes the air for themselves and others? b. Should nonsmokers have to pay the medical expenses of smokers? c. Is it sufficient to tax cigarettes to provide monies for universal health care? d. Should health insurance coverage be denied for illnesses involving smoking? Each student, or group, should present pro and con arguments for each question. Make notes of major arguments on the chalkboard. Lung Tissue Demonstration 3. Ask a local butcher for a lung and a portion of a bronchial tree from a butchered animal. Alternatively, sacrifice a lab rat ahead of time, and remove the lungs and bronchial tree. Demonstrate to students the ability of lung tissue to expand as air inflates it by using a straw or pipette inserted into a smaller bronchial passage. Fresh lung tissue will still inflate readily. Section off a small piece of lung tissue and demonstrate its ability to float in a pan of water. Describe the residual air capacity of human lungs. 50
