MULTIPLE CHOICE fh




1. The body’s mechanism for conducting air in and out of the lungs is
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




known as which of the following?
fh fh fh fh fh fh




a. External respiration fh




b. Internal respiration fh




c. Spontaneous ventilation fh




d. Mechanical ventilation fh




ANS: C fh




The conduction of air in and out of the body is known as ventilation.
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




Since the question asks for the body’s mechanism, this would be
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




spontaneous ventilation. External respiration involves the exchange
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) between the alveoli and the
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




pulmonary capillaries. Internal respiration occurs at the cellular
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




level and involves movement of oxygen from the systemic blood
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




into the cells.

2. Which of the following are involved in external respiration?
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




a. Red blood cells and body cells fh fh fh fh fh




b. Scalenes and trapezius fh fh



muscles
c. Alveoli and pulmonary fh fh

ANS: C fh




External respiration involves the exchange of oxygen and carbon

3. The graph that shows intrapleural pressure changes during
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




normal spontaneous breathing is depicted by which of the
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




following?
fh




a.
b.
c.
d.


ANS: B fh




During spontaneous breathing the intrapleural pressure drops
fh fh fh fh fh fh




from about -5 cm H2O at end-expiration to about -10 cm H2O at
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




end-inspiration. The graph depicted for answer B shows that
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




change from -5 cm H2O to -10 cm H2O.

4. During spontaneous inspiration alveolar pressure (PA) is about:
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




.
a. - 1 cm H2O fh fh fh




b. + 1 cm H2O fh fh fh




c. 0 cm H2O fh fh




d. 5 cm H2O fh fh




ANS: A fh




-1 cm H2O is the lowest alveolar pressure will become during normal
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




spontaneous ventilation. During the exhalation of a normal
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh f h




spontaneous breath the alveolar pressure will become +1 cm H2O.

5. The pressure required to maintain alveolar inflation is known as
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




which of the following?
fh fh fh fh




a. Transairway pressure (PTA ) fh fh fh




b. Transthoracic pressure (PTT) fh fh




c. Transrespiratory pressure (PTR) fh fh

d. Transpulmonary pressure (PL) fh fh




ANS: D fh




The definition of transpulmonary pressure (PL) is the pressure
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




required to maintain alveolar inflation. Transairway pressure (PTA ) is
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




the pressure gradient required to produce airflow in the conducting
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




tubes. Transrespiratory pressure (PTR) is the pressure to inflate the
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




lungs and airways during positive pressure ventilation.
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




Transthoracic pressure (PTT) represents the pressure required to
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




expand or contract the lungs and the chest wall at the same time.

6. Calculate the pressure needed to overcome airway resistance during
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




positive pressure ventilation when the proximal airway pressure
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




(PAw) is 35 cm H2O and the alveolar pressure (PA) is 5 cm H2O.

a. 7 cm H2O fh fh




b. 30 cm H2O fh fh




c. 40 cm H2O fh fh




d. 175 cm H2O fh fh




ANS: B fh




The transairway pressure (PTA) is used to calculate the pressure
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




required to overcome airway resistance during mechanical
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




ventilation. This formula is PTA = Paw- PA.

fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




original form after being stretched or acted on by an outside force is
fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh fh




which of the following?
