DEFINITION 6 the intercostals TERM 7 What are the 3 roles or diaphragm? DEFINITION 7 Foramen for esophagus Forame for aorta Foramen for inferior vena cava TERM 8 What is the main muscle of the respiratory system? DEFINITION 8 Diaphragm TERM 9 what is the overall increase in size of the thorax when muscles are activated? DEFINITION 9 25% TERM 10 What is in the Conducting Division? DEFINITION 10 Nasal Cavity Oral cavity Pharynx Larynx Trachea Right + Left Primary Bronchus Secondary + Segmental Bronchi Terminal Bronchioles TERM 21 Static tests of PF DEFINITION 21 measurement of volumes + capacites (sum 2+ volumes) measurement of amount of air within the lungs TERM 22 Dynamic tests of PF DEFINITION 22 measurement of air flow/flow rates measures how quickly you can "move" that volume of air in/out of body TERM 23 PFT/Spirometry test what? DEFINITION 23 good for ventilation does not measure gas exchange TERM 24 4 Different Lung Outcomes DEFINITION 24 normal restrictive lung disease obstructive lung disease combined restrictive + obstructive TERM 25 Restrictive Lung Disease DEFINITION 25 restricts ability for lungs to expand TERM 26 Obstructive Lung Disease DEFINITION 26 affects the tubes Ex. decrease in diameter Ex. asthma, bronchitis, excessive mucous TERM 27 How much of lung volume does the resp. division hold?
