13.) Out of all the functions of the equine respiratory system which is the PRIMARY function?

b. To transport oxygen molecules and oxygenate the blood
c. To help regulate body temperature
d. There is no primary function, they are all of equal importance
Fill in the Blanks: Write a word in the blank that correctly completes each statement.
________________ is the movement of air into and out of the lungs. This movement of air is
compelled by contractions of the horse’s chest muscles including the _________________, a
sheet of muscle at the bottom of the ribcage, and the ________________ muscles, muscles in
between the ribs. The respiratory system begins at the ______________ where air is taken in
through ______________, aka breathing. The air then passes through the ____________, which
helps to direct airflow and prevent foreign particles from entering the tract. It also contains
vocal cords that allow the horse to vocalize. After passing through the _____________ (same as
previous) air travels down the _____________ to the lungs. This cartilaginous, ringed tube then
divides into ___________ (#) _______________ for the right and left lungs. These continue to
get smaller turning into ________________ and then to _______________ where blood oxygen
exchange occurs. The _____________ are little air sacs within the lungs. The respiratory system
works closely with the _________________ system.
