Document Summary
Respiratory zone (where gas exchange occurs) : alveoli (epithelial cells of alveoli) Conductive zone (warms and moistens air): mouth, nose, trachea, larynx, bronchus, Inspiration: external intercostals contract/relax?, rib cage moves up, diaphragm moves down. Expiration: internal intercostals contract/relax?, rib cage moves down, diaphragm moves up. Tidal volume: amount of air breathed in or out under normal resting conditions. Inspiratory reserve volume: amount of air that can be forcefully inhaled after a normal inspiration. Expiratory reserve volume: amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled after normal exhalation. Residual volume: the amount left in lungs after expiratory reserve volume is out. This air that"s left is what stops the lungs from collapsing. Total lung capacity = tv + irv + erv + rv. Vital capacity: amount of air that can be exhaled after a max inspiratory effort. Inspiratory capacity: amount of air that can be inspired after normal expiration. Functional residual capacity: what"s left in the lungs after normal expiration.
