Document Summary

Lecture 14: the control of breathing (continued: summary of the control of breathing. Breathing is produced in the respiratory control centres of the medulla oblongata and the pons, in the brainstem. We are not particularly concerned with the receptors in the muscles and joints, but in short, while we all know that breathing increases during exercise, there is no known respiratory control system that can account for the increase. It is thought that this increase in breathing may actually be caused by mechanoreceptors or proprioceptors, rather than receptors that are specifically respiratory-related in nature: the pontine respiratory group (prg) The pontine respiratory group (prg) is located in the pons. It consists of two main nuclei, the k lliker fuse and the nucleus parabranchialis. It plays an important role in the termination of inspiration and the correct switching from inspiration to expiration.

a) -------------------- serves as a sound resonating chamber; contains tonsils; directs air inferiorly

b) ------------------- passes air from pharynx into windpipe; site of sound production

c) ------------------ resonate(s) sound; not part of pharynx

D) ------------------ opening from oral cavity into pharynx

E) ----------------- carries air to a segment of a lung

F) -------------------- carries air directly into a respiratory bronchiole

G) ----------------- surround the lungs

H) ------------------ reduces surface tension at sites of gas exchange

i) -------------------- actual sites of gas exchange

j) --------------------- normal, quiet breathing

k) ----------------------- shallow breathing using just the external intercostal muscles

l) ------------------ amount of effort required to expand the lungs and chest wall

m) ------------------- tidal volume + inspiratory reserve volume, usually about 3600 mL in males

n) ----------------- tidal volume + inspiratory reserve volume + expiratory reserve volume; usually about 4800 mL in males

o) ------------------- residual volume + expiratory reserve volume; usually about 2400 mL in males

p) -------------------- states that the amount of gas that will dissolve in a liquid is proportional to the partial pressure of that gas and its solubility

q) ---------------- when pH decreases, O₂ saturation of hemoglobin decreases

r) ------------------ each gas in a mixture of gases exerts its own partial pressure

s) ------------------- sets basic rhythm of breathing

t) ------------------------ includes the pontine respiratory group
