Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

36 notecards = 9 pages (4 cards per page)

WHAT IS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE FACT THAT THE HUMAN TRACHEA IS REINFORCED WITH CARTILAGINOUS RINGS?

back 6

REINFORCE THE TRACHEA WALLS TO MAINTAIN ITS OPEN PASSAGEWAY REGUARDLESS OF THE PRESSURE CHANGES THAT OCCUR DURING BREATHING

front 7

OF THE FACT THAT THE RINGS ARE INCOMPLETE POSTERIORLY?

back 7

ALLOWS ESOPHAGUS TO EXPAND ANTERIORLY WHEN A LARGE FOOD BOLUS IS SWALLOWED

front 8

WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF THE PLEURAL MEMBRANES?

back 8

PRODUCE LUBRICATING SEROUS FLUID THAT CAUSES THEM TO ADHERE CLOSELY TO ONE ANOTHER, HOLDING THE LUNGS TO THE THORACIC WALL AND ALLOWING THEM TO MOVE EASILY AGAINST ONE ANOTHER DURING THE MOVEMENTS OF BREATHING

front 9

NAME TWO FUNCTIONS OF THE NASAL CAVITY MUCOSA

back 9

IT WARMS, MOISTENS - AND - FILTERS THE AIR THAT PASSES THROUGH THE NASAL CAVITY

front 10

PRIMARY BRONCHI:

WHICH IS LONGER?

back 10

LEFT MAIN BRONCHUS

front 11

PRIMARY BRONCHI:

LARGER IN DIAMETER?

back 11

RIGHT MAIN BRONCHUS

front 12

PRIMARY BRONCHI:

MORE HORIZONTAL?

back 12

LEFT MAIN BRONCHUS

front 13

PRIMARY BRONCHI:

WHICH MORE COMMONLY TRAPS A FOREIGN OBJECT THAT HAS ENTERED THE RESPIRATORY PASSAGEWAYS?

back 13

RIGHT MAIN BRONCHUS

front 14

Ok, so you’re using my notecards which is great. I am glad I could help you out cause I wish I had someone to help me out when I took this course. I know Anatomy is super hard.

back 14

I only ask that if you find these notecards helpful, you join Easy Notecards and create at least one notecard set to help others out. It can be for any subject or class. Thanks and don’t forget to rate my helpfulness!

front 15

TRACE A MOLECULE OF OXYGEN FROM THE NOSTRILS TO THE PULMONARY CAPILLARIES OF THE LUNGS

back 15

NOSTRILS -> NASAL CAVITY -> PHARYNX -> LARYNX -> TRACHEA -? PRIMARY BRONCHUS -> SECONDARY BRONCHI -> TERTIARY BRONCHI -> BRONCHIOLE -> RESPIRATORY BRONCHIOLE -> ALVEOLAR DUCT ->ALVEOLAR SAC -> ALVEOLAR/CAPILLARY WALLS -> PULMONARY BLOOD

OPENING BETWEEN THE VOCAL FOLDS

back 25

GLOTTIS

front 26

INCREASES AIR TURBULENCE IN THE NASAL CAVITY

back 26

CONCHAE

front 27

SEPARATES THE ORAL CAVITY FROM THE NASAL CAVITY

back 27

PALATE

front 28

WHAT PORTIONS OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM ARE REFERRED TO AS ANATOMICAL DEAD SPACE? WHY?

back 28

ALL RESPIRATORY PASSAGEWAYS (CONDUCTING ZONE STRUCTURES), BESIDES RESPIRATORY ZONE STRUCTURES, FROM NASAL CAVITY TO TERMINAL BRONCHIOLES.
WHY = THEY HAVE NO EXCHANGE FUNCTION

front 29

DEFINE EXTERNAL RESPIRATION

back 29

THE GAS EXCHANGE BETWEEN THE BLOOD AND THE AIR-FILLED CHAMBERS OF THE LUNGS (OXYGEN LOADING/CARBON DIOXIDE UNLOADING)

front 30

DEFINE INTERNAL RESPIRATION

back 30

EXCHANGE OF GASES BETWEEN SYSTEMIC BLOOD AND TISSUE CELLS (OXYGEN UNLOADING AND CARBON DIOXIDE LOADING)

front 31

DEFINE CELLULAR RESPIRATION

back 31

BODY CELLS REQUIRE AN ABUNDANT AND CONTINUOUS SUPPLY OF OXYGEN. AS THE CELLS USE OXYGEN, THEY RELEASE CARBON DIOXIDE, A WASTE PRODUCT THAT THE BODY MUST GET RID OF. THESE OXYGEN USING CELLULAR PROCESSES ARE REFERRED TO CELLULAR RESPIRATION (CELLULAR METABOLISM)

SHEEP PLUCK:

DOES THE LUNG INFLATE PART BY PART OR AS A WHOLE, LIKE A BALLOON?

back 32

PART BY PART

front 33

SHEEP PLUCK:

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THE PRESSURE WAS RELEASED

back 33

IT DEFLATES

front 34

WHAT TYPE OF TISSUE ENSURES THIS PHENOMENON?

back 34

ELASTIC CONNECTIVE TISSUE

front 35

SLIDES OF TRACHEA AND LUNG TISSUE:

WHAT STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ALVEOLI MAKE THEM AN IDEAL SITE FOR THE DIFFUSION OF GASES?

back 35

VERY THIN WALLS, LARGE SURFACE AREA

front 36

WHY DOES OXYGEN MOVE FROM THE ALVEOLI INTO THE PULMONARY CAPILLARY BLOOD?

back 36

OXYGEN DIFFUSES FROM THE ALVEOLI INTO THE BLOOD DUE TO HIGHER PO2 (PARTIAL PRESSURE OF OXYGEN) LEVELS IN THE ALVEOLI THAN IN THE BLOOD.
