- Nose Primary Function
- Exchanges air: inhaling and exhaling. Warms, moisturizes and filters air.
- Sinuses Primary Function
- Provide Mucus Makes bones of the skull lighter Aids in sound production
- Pharynx
- Transports air to and from the nose to the trachea.
- Larynx
- Makes speech possible
- Epiglottis
- Closes off the trachea during swallowing
- Bronchiole location
- distal end of primary bronchus
- Trachea Primary Function?
- Transport air to and from the pharynx to the bronchi
- Bronchi primary function?
- Transports air from the trachea into the lungs
- Alveoli
- Air sacs that exchange gasses with the pulmonary capillary blood.
- Eupnea
- Normal Breathing
- Tachypnea
- abnormally rapid breathing
- Bradypnea
- Abnormally slow breathing
- Apnea
- absence of breathing
- Cheyne-Stokes
- Alternating series of abnormal patterns
- 4 lung volumes are
- TV = Tidal Volume, IRV = Inspiratory Reserve Volume ERV = Expiratory Reserve Volume RV = Residual Volume
