Respiratory System Chapter 16
Objectives • To understand the functions of the respiratory system. • To identify the major organs and components of the respiratory system.
The Respiratory System • Intro to Respiration Video
Respiratory Fun! • Complete the Crossword, Wordsearch, and fill-in the blank to see how much you already know about the Respiratory System!
Do Now • Define the following terms… • Tidal volume • Vital Capacity
Objectives • To determine your own vital capacity and tidal volumes. • To graph the vital capacity of an athlete vs. a non-athlete.
Do Now • Name as many structures involved in the respiratory system as possible!
Objectives • To explain the functions of the respiratory system. • To identify the different organs and structures that are part of the respiratory system.
Functions of the Respiratory System • Obtain oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. • Trap particles from incoming air and help control the temperature and water content of the air • Produce vocal sounds • Participate in the sense of smell • Regulate blood pH
Organs of the Respiratory System • 1) Upper Respiratory Tract • Nose • Nasal cavity • Paranasal sinuses • pharynx • 2) Lower Respiratory Tract • Larynx • Trachea • Bronchial tree • lungs
The Nose • Two nostrils- openings in which air can enter and leave • Nasal septum- divides the cavity into left and right cavities • Nasal conchae- bones that curl out, dividing the cavity into passageways
Mucus Membrane • Lines the nasal cavity and help increase its surface area • Contains pseudostratified ciliated epithelium • Goblet cells secrete mucus • Blood vessels warm air
Sinuses • Air-filled spaces located within the skull • Reduce the weight of the skull • Affect the quality of the voice
Pharynx • Behind the oral cavity and between the nasal cavity and larynx • Common passageway for food esophagus and air larynx
Larynx • Air enters the larynx through the glottis • The epiglottis folds over the glottis, preventing entry of liquids or food • 9 cartilages • Vocal cords surround glottis • Puberty changes caused by testosterone, vocal cords lengthen and enlarge- lower tones *Laryngoscopy Video!
Trachea- “Windpipe” • C-shaped cartilage rings (hyaline cartilage) keep passageways open • Opening of cartilage is near the back of trachea to allow food to pass through the esophagus • Smooth muscle changes the size of the trachea when it contracts
Bronchi/Bronchioles • Trachea branches into the right and left primary bronchi secondary bronchi tertiary bronchi and so on… • Bronchiole: when the bronchi no longer have cartilage they are called bronchioles. Asthma Video Clip
Bronchioles lead to Alveoli • Respiratory bronchioles open into passageways called alveolar ducts that end at alveolar sacs
Review • Mouth • Pharynx (throat) • Larnyx (voicebox) • Trachea (windpipe) • Bronchi Primary, secondary and tertiary • Bronchioles • Terminal bronchiole • Respiratory bronchiole • Alveoli Review Animation
Do Now • List the pathway of air beginning with breathing through the nose!
Objectives • To explain the function and necessity of surfactant in the lungs. • To explain the differences in pressure during inspiration and expiration. • To define the different volumes and capacities within the lungs.
The Lungs • Contains Lobes • Right lung= 3 lobes • Left Lung= 2 lobes • Within the “pleural cavity” • Parietal pleural membrane • Visceral pleural membrane
Breathing Vocab • Ventilation: breathing • Inspiration: inhalation, breathing in • Expiration: exhalation, breathing out
Inspiration • Atmospheric pressure forces air into the lungs while diaphragm is contracting. • Pressure is higher outside the lungs
Surface Tension • Alveoli attract water molecules and cause surface tension, alveoli are harder to inflate and can actually collapse • Alveolar cells synthesize “surfactant” to fight this and make it easier to inflate the alveoli.
Respiratory Distress Syndrome • Premature babies do not produce sufficient surfactant and cannot breathe properly. • Doctors drip synthetic surfactant into their lungs through a tube and they breath using a ventilator.
Expiration • The elastic recoil of the lung tissue and decreased diameter of the alveoli creates a very slightly greater pressure inside the lungs than the atmosphere, forcing the air out.
Non-respiratory Air Movements • Caughing: airway obstruction in lower respiratory tract causes us to inhale, close the glottis, and force air out, opening the glottis and forcing out the obstruction. • Sneezing: airway obstruction in upper respiratory tract, air forced through glottis into nasal passage. (can be propelled out at 200mph! Gross!!) • Laughing: Taking a breath and releasing it in short expirations. • Hiccuping: sudden inspiration due to a spasmodic contraction of the diaphragm when the glottis is closed, passing air over vocal cords causes a hiccup sound. • Yawning: low blood-oxygen concentration triggers yawn reflex that ventilates more of the alveoli.
Respiratory Volumes • Measure by an instrument called a “spirometer”. • We already know 1 volume from our lab. • What is it?
Respiratory Volumes • Tidal Volume: volume of air entering or leaving during a single respiratory cycle. • Inspiratory Reserve Volume: extra air in lungs during forced inspiration. • Expiratory Reserve Volume: air that exits during forced expiration. • Residual Volume: air left in lungs even after forced expiration.
Respiratory Capacities • Combining two or more volumes gives us a capacity. • 1) Vital capacity= inspiratory reserve volume + tidal volume + expiratory reserve volume. • 2) Inspiratory capacity= tidal volume + inspiratory reserve volume. • 3) Function residual capacity= expiratory reserve volume + residual volume. • 4) Total Lung Capacity= vital capacity + residual volume. (about 5,800 ml)
Review • Which non-respiratory air movement can clear an obstruction from the upper respiratory tract? • If you were to completely breath out everything you have in your lungs, what “volume” would still be left in there? • What is the name of the substance that allows inflation of the alveoli and is lacking in respiratory distress syndrome?
Respiratory Diseases • Read about the respiratory conditions and answer the questions.
