  1. a Cartilaginous plates (instead of c-shaped rings of trachea).
  2. b Smaller (displaced by heart) and has two lobes.
  3. c Thinner walls of smooth muscle, lined with ciliated epithelium. Subdivision of bronci. At the end, alveolar duct and cluster of alveoli.
  4. d Nose hairs, trap larger dirt particles.
  5. e Deep breath followed by forceful expulsion of air to clean lower respiratory tract.

5 Multiple Choice Questions

  1. Frontal, maxillary, ethmoid, and sphenoid.

  5. Deep prolonged breath that fills the lungs, increases oxygen within the blood.

5 True/False Questions

  1. chemical factors of breathing controlRespiratory center located in medulla oblongata (in the brain). Increase in CO2 and decrease in O2 in the blood will trigger respiratory center.

          

  2. pulmonary venilationThroat. Common passageway for air and food. 5" long.

          

  3. alveoliComposed of single layer of epithelial tissue. Inner surfaces covered with surfactant to keep from collapsing. Each surrounded by capillaries. Oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange takes place between these and capillaries.

          

  4. respiratory movement1 inspiration and 1 expiration= 1 respiration. Normal adult= 14-20 respirations per minute. Increases with exercise, body temperature, and certain diseases. Age (newborn= 40-60 per minute). Sleep= respirations go down. Emotion can bring respirations up or down.

          

  5. neural factors of breathing controlRespiratory center located in medulla oblongata (in the brain). Increase in CO2 and decrease in O2 in the blood will trigger respiratory center.
