what is the function of alveoli? - allows for exchange of gas



the right lung has how many lobes? - 3



left lung has how many lobes? - 2



what is the function of pleural membrane? - reduces friction when you breath

,what are the respiratory muscles? - diaphragm

intercostal muscles



what are the functions of respiratory system? - - supply O2 through body

- get rid of CO2

- filters air

- speech

- smell (think chemoreceptors)

- helps maintain homeostasis



Hyper or Hypoventilation: increases blood pH (acidosis) - Hyperventilation



Hyper or Hypoventilation: decreases blood pH (alkalosis) - Hypoventilation



Inhalation or Exhalation?

- diaphragm contracts, moves down, increasing chest cavity, pressure decreases

- outside air is under more pressure than air inside lungs - inhalation



Inhalation of exhalation?

- diaphragm/intercostals relax, chest cavity decreases

- controlled by medulla oblongata - exhalation



_________________________________ monitors the level of CO2 in blood, signals breathing rate when
levels are too high - medulla oblongata



circulatory system consists of what 3 major parts? - - blood

- blood vessels

- heart

lymphocytes



heart is made of what tissue? - cardiac muscle tissue

what separates the atrium from ventricle? - atrioventricular valve



___________________ prevent backflow - valves



the heart has how many chambers? - 4



what is the function of the sinoatrial node "cardiac pacemaker"? - - generates electrical signals through
purkinje fibers, stimulating contraction to fill R ventricle with blood

- SA node transmits signal to right ventricle through AV valve (tricuspid)

- R ventricle contracts

- AV valve closes, pulmonary semilunar valve opens

- blood pumped out of arteries to lungs

- blood from lungs fills left atrium

- mitral valve (bicuspid) opens, blood fills ventricle

- mitral valve closes and aortic semilunar valve opens

- left ventricle contracts, blood is pumped out of aorta and to rest of body



circulation: blood to heart - coronary



circulation: blood between heart and lungs - pulmonary
