5. Abnormal presence of air in the pleural space.
8. Adequate oxygen reaching lungs but no adequate blood flow or vice versa.
9. A lung infection characterized by alveolar edema in which the alveoli fill up with fluid or pus.
11. Diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide across the alveolar-capillary membrane.
12. An abnormal collection of air in the pleural space.
13. Fluid pushed through the capillary dye to high pressure within the capillary.
14. Loss of lung elasticity, enlargement of gas exchange spaces, and destruction of alveolar walls.
16. Incomplete expansion of the alveoli/ collapse of a segment or portion of the lung.
17. The amount of air inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing.

1. An abnormal collection of fluid in the pleural cavity.
2. Passage of fluid and/or solid particles into the lungs.
4. Fluid that leaks around the cells of the capillaries caused by inflammation
6. A collection of pus or infected fluid within the pleural space.
7. Airway obstruction of major and small airways involving mucous gland hyperplasia, muscle hypertrophy, bronchial wall thickening, and inflammation.
10. The total amount of air exhaled per minute.
15. Chronic inflammatory disease of the airways causing narrowing of airways due to bronchospasm, inflammation, increased airway secretions.
