Respiratory physiology
Across
- 2. direction of hemoglobin saturation curve in exercising muscles
- 3. muscle of inspiration
- 8. sympathetic action on bronchioles
- 9. region of saturation curve that keeps a high saturation when PO2 drops
- 10. disease that reduces surface are in the lungs
- 12. less soluble in blood than carbon dioxide
- 14. results of thoracic volume during inspiration
- 16. arteries with a partial pressure of oxygen of 100
- 17. abdominal muscles used during this part of breathing
- 18. respiratory control area (two words no space)
- 20. reduces surface tension in the lungs
- 22. type of breathing when at rest
- 24. results of intrapulmonary pressure during inspiration
- 25. major method of transporting carbon dioxide in the blood
- 27. name of volume and pressure law
- 28. arteries with a partial pressure of carbon dioxide of 46
Down
- 1. part of breathing when lungs expand
- 4. pressure that changes from -6 to -4 during expiration
