exercise 37A a and p

front 1

lung change in internal volume of the bell jar (thoracic cage)

back 1

diaphragm pushed up: decreased
diaphragm pulled down: increased

front 2

lung change in internal pressure

back 2

diaphragm pushed up: increased
diaphragm pulled down: decreased

front 3

lung change in the size of the balloons (lungs)

back 3

diaphragm pushed up: decreased
diaphragm pulled down: increased

front 4

lung change in direction of air flow

back 4

diaphragm pushed up: increased into lungs
decreased out of lungs
diaphragm pulled down: increased into lungs
decreased out of lungs

front 5

under what internal conditions does air tend to flow into the lungs?

back 5

increase in thoracic volume
decrease in pressure

front 6

under what internal conditions does air tend to flow out of the lungs? Explain why

back 6

decrease in thoracic volume, increase in pressure. Gases move in the direction that tends to equalize pressure inside and outside the "container"

front 7

activation of the diaphragm and the external intercostal muscles begins inspiratory process. What effect does contraction of these muscle have on thoracic volume and how is this accomplished?

back 7

increase in thoracic volume. The diaphragm moves inferiorly, increasing the superior/inferior dimension; the ribs swing up and out, increasing the lateral and anterior and posterior dimensions

front 8

What was the approximate increase in diameter of chest circumference during a quiet inspiration?

during forced insiration?

back 8

no data

front 9

what temporary physiological advantage is created by the substantial increase in chest circumference during forced inspiration?

back 9

Increases the thoracic volume more; therefore, creates a greateer negative internal pressure, causing the gases to rush in quickly. Also, more "fresh" air reaches the alveoli.

front 10

The presence of a partial vacuum between the pleural membranes is integral to normal breathing movements. What would happen if an opning were made into the chest cavity as with a pressure wound?
How is this condition treated medically?

back 10

Destroys the partial vacuum in the pleural space and the lung on the affected side collapses.

Air is withdrawn (chest tube) and the chest is closed

front 11

which of the respiratory sounds is heard during both inspiration and expiration?

back 11

Bronchial

front 12

Which is heard primarily during inspiration?

back 12

Vesicular

front 13

front 15

volume of air that can be expired forcibly after a normal expiration

back 15

front 16

Volume of air that is breathed in and out during normal respiration

back 16

back 17

inspiratory reserve (~2700-2800ml)

front 18

back 18

vital capacity (~4800ml)

front 19

would your vital capacity measurement differ if you preformed the test while standing? While lying down? Explain

back 19

Yes, both, when lying down or sitting the abdominal organs press against the diaphragm, making it harder for the diaphragm to move inferiorly

front 20

Which respiratory ailments can respiratory volume tests be used to detect?

back 20

Chronic bronchitis and emphysema (often associated). Chronic bronchitis lowers the volume of air that can be inhaled due to excessive mucus production; emphysema decreases the amount of air that can be exhaled (check valve effect)

Pons

front 24

respiratory rate and depths of respiratory peaks observed: talking

back 24

respiratory rate becomes irregular when talking

front 25

resp. rate and depths of resp. peaks observed: Yawning

back 25

Yawning is reflected by very deep prolonged inspiration

front 26

resp. rate and depths of resp peaks observed: Laughing

back 26

Respiratory rate becomes irregular. Respiratory depth may increase or decrease depending on the nature of the laugh

front 27

Resp rate and depths of resp peaks observed: standing

back 27

regular rythm and rate

front 28

resp rate and depths of resp peaks observed: Concentrating

back 28

resp rate is regular unless punctuated by intervals of apnea in individuals who hold their breath when concentrating

front 29

resp rate and depths of resp peaks observed: Swallowing water

back 29

respiration ceases during the period of swallowing

front 30

resp rate and depths of resp peaks observed: coughing

back 30

resp rate becomes irregular and marked by increased depth of expirations during coughing

front 31

resp rate and depths of resp peaks observed: Lying down

back 31

regular rhythm and regular or slighly depressed rate. Depth decreases

front 32

resp rate and depths of resp peaks observed: running in place

back 32

increased rate and depth of breathing

front 33

After breathing quietly and taking a deep breath which you held, was your urge to inspire or expire

back 33

expire

front 34

reflex when exhaling and then holding breath

back 34

inspiration

front 35

Explain results of breathing relexes

back 35

Hering-Breuer reflex. Both extreme deflation and inflation of the lungs excites receptors there. Impulses are transmitted to the medulla oblongata, which then initiates inspiration or expiration.

front 36

Why does hyperventilation produce apnea or a reduced respiratory rate?

back 36

Hyperventilation washes CO2 out of the blood. Since CO2 is the major chemical stimulus for inspiration, the desire or drive to breathe is decreased

front 37

Why does rebreathing air produce an increased respiratory rate?

back 37

CO2 (exhaled) accumulateds in the bag; this stimulates increased force/rate of respiration

front 38

What was the effect of running in place (exercise) on the duration of breath holding? Explain

back 38

decreases the duration because of the bodys need to get rid of CO2 and obtain 02 is increased by exercise

front 39

effect of respiration on circulation, explain data

back 39

Forced expiration increases intrathoracic pressure, reducing blood flow back to the heart, resulting in dilation of the neck and facial veins. Decreased cardiac output results in increased cardiac rate (seen here as increased pulse)

front 40

Increase in blood CO2..increase or decrease with respiratory rate and depth

back 40

Increase

front 41

Decrease in blood O2...increase/ decrease with resp rate and depth

back 41

Increase

front 42

Increase in blood pH...increase/decrease with resp rate and depth

back 42

CO2

front 45

where are sensory receptors sensitive to changes in BP located?

where are sensory receptors sensitive to changes in O2 levels in the blood located?

back 46

Aortic bodies in the aortic arch and carotid bodies at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery

front 47

What is the primary factor that initiates breathing in a newborn infant

back 47

increase levels of CO2 in the blood

front 48

blood Co2 levels and blood ph are related. When blood CO2 levels increase, does ph increase or decrease?

back 48

Decrease because CO2 combines with H20 to produce carbonicc acid (H2CO3) which dissociates and liberates a H ion

ERV
FEV would all decrease

define BUFFER

back 51

a molecule or molecular system that acts to resist changes in pH

front 52

How successful was the lab buffer (pH7) in resisting changes in pH when acid was added?

back 52

very successful

front 53

when base was added?

back 53

very successful

front 54

How successful was the buffer in resisting changes in pH when additional aliquots 3 more drops of the acid and base were added to the original samples?

back 54

Successful; only slight pH changes are seen

front 55

What buffer system operates in blood plasma

back 55

Carbonic acid bicarbonate system

front 56

which member of the buffer system resists a DROP in ph?

back 56

HCO3

front 57

which member of the buffer system resists a RISE in pH?

back 57

H2CO3

front 58

Expllain how the carbonic acid bicarbonate buffer system of the blood operates?

back 58

H2CO3 a weak acid remains undissociated at physiologic pH or acid pH. However, if the pH starts to rise, H2CO3 dissociates and liberates H, which acts to lower the pH. HCO3(bicarbonate ion) is the alkaline reserve; it acts to tie up excess H into the H2CO3 when the enviornment gets too acidic. Since it is a weak base, it doesnt unction under physiologic or alkaline conditions

front 59

what happened when the CO2 in exhaled air mixed with water

back 59

Phenol red turned yellow as CO2 mixed with water to form carbonic acid

front 60

what role does exhalation of CO2 play in maintaing relatively constant blood pH

back 60

CO2 leaves the blood during exhalation. This prevents an accumulation of Carbonic acid (H2CO3)
