Respiratory System
Across
- 4. Double membrane of the lungs.
- 5. Type of maneuver that may be used to help dislodge objects obstructing the airway.
- 8. Detergent-like substance that reduces surface tension between the alveoli.
- 11. When gases/air exit the lungs.
- 12. Type of cartilage that forms Adam’s apple.
- 14. Carbon dioxide is mostly carried from the tissues to the lungs through these types of ions.
- 15. Effect describes that as more CO2 enters the blood it causes more oxygen to dissociate from Hb.
- 16. Oxygen is mostly carried in blood by being attached to this.
- 17. Group of sinuses surrounding the nasal cavity.
- 18. Site where pulmonary and systemic blood vessels may enter/exit the lungs.
- 19. Law that describes the inverse relationship of pressure and volume of gas at constant temperature.
Down
- 1. Structures that create turbulent airflow.
- 2. Condition where the pleura becomes inflamed.
- 3. Zone where gas exchange occurs in the lungs.
- 6. Most sensitive part of the trachea.
- 7. Type of breathing that occurs if the pontine respiratory center were to be cut.
- 9. Type of pressure defining the difference between the pleural cavity and alveolar pressure.
- 10. Type of chemoreceptor that responds to change in PCO2 and pH.
- 13. State in which there is an insufficient oxygen supply to the tissues of the body.
- 14. Type of circulation with a high pressure and low volume system.
