Physiology Chapter 17 Mechanics Of Breathing Flashcards Quizlet Refers to the intracellular reaction of oxygen with organic molecules to produce co2, water and energy in the form of atp. the movement of gases between the environment and the body's cells. subdivided into 4 processes. the exchange of air between the atmosphere and the lungs. the exchange of o2 and co2 between the lungs and the blood. Study with quizlet and memorize flashcards containing terms like human physiology: an integrated approach, 6e (silverthorn) chapter 17 mechanics of breathing 1) which is not considered to be a primary function of the respiratory system? a) regulation of water balance b) regulation of ph balance c) protection against pathogens d) vocalization e) gas exchange, : level i: reviewing facts and.
Chapter 17 Mechanics Of Breathing Flashcards Quizlet Chapter 17: mechanics of breathing 4 primary functions of the respiratory system: 1. exchange of gases between the atmosphere and the blood the body brings in o2 for distribution to the tissues and eliminates co waste produced by metabolism 2. Chapter 17: mechanics of breathing. what are the primary functions of the respiratory system? to bring oxygen into the body and take carbon dioxide out of the body. homeostatic regulation of body ph. protection from inhaled pathogens. vocalization; how does the respiratory system control ph?. 1) the conducting system of passages or airways that lead from the external environment to the exchange surface of the lungs. 2) the alveoli a series of interconnected sacs and their associated pulmonary capillaries that form the exchange surface. 3) the bones and muscles of the thorax that assist in ventilation. Human physiology: an integrated approach, 7e, (silverthorn) chapter 17 mechanics of breathing. which is not considered to be a primary function of the respiratory system? a) regulation of water balance b) regulation of ph balance c) protection against pathogens d) vocalization e) gas exchange answer: a. ventilation is also known as a) breathing.

The relationship between gas pressure and volume helps to explain the mechanics of breathing. there is always a slightly negative pressure within the thoracic cavity, which aids in keeping the airways of the lungs open. during inhalation, volume increases as a result of contraction of the diaphragm, and pressure decreases (according to boyle. The work of breathing. the number of breaths per minute is the respiratory rate. on average, under non exertion conditions, the human respiratory rate is 12–15 breaths minute. the respiratory rate contributes to the alveolar ventilation, or how much air moves into and out of the alveoli.
