The Lung Cell By Jake Wood
Functions of the lung cell • It helps on the way of the air movement in the lungs
Structure of the lung cell • Hyperoxic exposure in vitro of two lung-derived cell types (the epithelial-derived L2 cells and WI-38 fibroblasts) inhibits cellular replication, produces striking morphologic changes and may result in cell death; these effects have been observed consistently in other cell types. Hyperoxic exposure of L2 cells is associated with an increase in cellular cyclic AMP content (cellular cyclic AMP content 454 +/- 115 fmol/micrograms DNA in cells exposed to pO2 677 Torr for 96 h compared to 136 +/- 17 fmol/microgram DNA in air-grown cells).
Facts of the lung cell • They can be apart of lung cancer • And they apart of the way the air moves in an out of both of the lungs
Osmosis in the lung cell • Helps movement of the air going in the lung
Diffusion in the lung cell • It helps it push out the air in the lungs
Cell respiration in the lung cell • It moves the carbon dioxide out of the lungs
