Across
  1. 1. cells that secrete mucus
  2. 3. type of airflow that has no pattern
  3. 4. zone of the respiratory system that includes the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and the alveoli
  4. 7. the primary muscle of breathing
  5. 8. lung disease that makes it difficult to inspire enough air
  6. 11. where gas exchange occurs in the lungs
  7. 12. the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a full expiration
  8. 14. law stating that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to temperature when pressure is constant
  9. 19. law stating that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to temperature when the volume is constant
  10. 20. the volume of air that we inspire and expire during restful breathing
Down
  1. 2. lung disease due to narrowing of the airways or damage to the lung tissue
  2. 5. type of airflow that is organized
  3. 6. type of clearance where mucus is pushed upwards towards the pharynx to be expelled
  4. 9. flexing these intercostal muscles increases the volume of the thoracic cavity
  5. 10. nasal _______ has curved shelves of bone call conchae
  6. 13. respiratory tract that includes the nasal cavity, pharynx, and larynx
  7. 15. type of muscle that works with the internal intercostals during a forced expiration
  8. 16. connects the pharynx to the lungs
  9. 17. a tool used in spirometry
  10. 18. zone of the respiratory system that includes everything from the nose to the bronchioles
