  1. 22 The Respiratory System

  2. I. The Respiratory System A. Basic functions of the respiratory system 1. supplies body with oxygen 2. disposes of carbon dioxide B. Four processes involved in respiration ► Pulmonary ventilation – move air in and out ► External respiration – transport of gases in lungs ► Transport of respiratory gases – movement through blood ► Internal respiration – transport of gases in tissues

  3. II. Anatomy of the Respiratory System A. Respiratory organs 1. Nose, nasal cavity, and paranasal sinuses 2. Pharynx, larynx, and trachea 3. Bronchi and smaller branches 4. Lungs and alveoli B. Conducting zone 1. respiratory passageways that convey air 2. filter, humidify, and warm incoming air C. Respiratory zone 1. site of gas exchange in the lungs 2. includes structures that have alveoli

  4. Oral cavity Nasal cavity Pharynx Nostril Left main(primary)bronchus Larynx Trachea Bronchi Carina oftrachea Alveoli Right main(primary)bronchus Left lung Diaphragm Right lung Parietalpleura

  7. III. The Nose A. Functions ► Provides an airway for respiration ► Moistens and warms air ► Filters inhaled air ► Resonating chamber for speech ► Houses olfactory receptors B. Size variation due to differences in nasal cartilages C. Skin of nose is thin and contains many sebaceous glands

Houses olfactory (smell) receptors E. Respiratory mucosa 1. Lines nasal cavity 2. Epithelium is pseudostratified ciliated columnar

  11. F. The Nasal Conchae 1. project medially from the lateral wall of the nasal cavity 2. superior and middle nasal conchae - part of the ethmoid bone 3. inferior nasal conchae - separate bone ► particulate matter - deflected to mucus-coated surfaces ► during inhalation - filter, heat, and moisten incoming air ► during exhalation - moisture and heat are reclaimed G. The Nasal Meatuses – passageway of air through conchae

  21. IX. The Oropharynx A. Archlike entranceway – fauces (arch in back of mouth) 1. Extends from soft palate to the epiglottis B. Two types of tonsils in the oropharynx 1. Palatine tonsils—in the lateral walls of the fauces 2. Lingual tonsils—cover the posterior surface of the tongue

  22. X. The Laryngopharynx A. Passageway for both food and air B. Continuous with the esophagus and larynx C. Extends to inferior boundary of cricoid cartilage

  23. XI. The Larynx A. Attaches to hyoid bone superiorly 1. opens into laryngopharynx B. Routes air and food into the proper channels ► voice production ► provides an open airway ► closed during swallowing ► open during breathing C. Sphincter function of the larynx - Valsalva’s maneuver—straining D. Framework is arrangement of nine cartilages

  24. E. 9 sements of cartilage • 1. unpaired - thyroid, epiglottic, cricoid • 2. paired - arytenoid, corniculate, cuneiform • a. thyroid cartilage (Adam's apple) • b. epiglottis - covers larynx to route food • glottis - vocal folds (cords) for sound • c. cricoid cartilage - attaches larynx to trachea • d. arytenoid cartilage - attached to vocal folds

  25. F. Voice Production • 1. ventricular folds (false cords) • a. hold breath against thoracic air pressure • b. vocal cords (true cords) • i. vibrate to produce different frequencies • 2. pharynx, mouth, sinuses, nose, tongue, lips • i. modify the sound
