1
this part of the bronchial tree is considered the beginning of the respiratory division
2
this is from the nose through the larynx
3
most abundant of alveolar surface, Thin, broad cells that allow for rapid gas diffusion between alveolus and bloodstream
4
this is from the trachea to the lungs
5
another word for breathing
6
This is what O2 and Co2 must pass through to move from lungs to blood
7
ease with which the lungs can expand
8
Most numerous of all cells in the lung
9
this division consists of alveoli and other gas exchange regions
10
Repair the alveolar epithelium, least abundant of alveolar surface
11
this division includes those passages that serve only for airflow
12
consists of taking a deep breath, holding it by closing the glottis, and then contracting the abdominal muscles to raise abdominal pressure and push organ contents out
13
this is the place where the decision is made whether food goes down the esophagus or down the trachea
14
adheres to mediastinum, inner surface of the rib cage, and superior surface of the diaphragm
15
serous membrane that covers lungs
16
presence of air in pleural cavity
17
collapse of part or all of a lung
18
flap of tissue that guards the superior opening of the larynx
19
this law states that volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature
20
this law states that at a constant temperature, the pressure of a given quantity of gas is inversely proportional to its volume
