Question 5
5 / 5 pts
Note: Essay answers must clearly be in your own words.
Explain what happens to the epiglottis during swallowing. Why? Your Answer:
Trachea is closed by the epiglottis during swallowing. Epiglottis moves inferiorly and covers the trachea this process prevents food and/or liquid going in to the lungs.
The trachea is closed by the epiglottis. The epiglottis moves inferiorly, covering the trachea. This is to prevent food or liquid from entering the lungs.
Question 6
5 / 5 pts
Note: Essay answers must clearly be in your own words.
Explain at least two differences between Type I and Type II alveolar cells. Your Answer:
1- Type 1 alveolars make up 95% of the alvolar epithelial cells. Type 2 only 5% of the alvolar epithelial cells.
2- Type 1 forms very thin simple squamous epithelium. Type 2 cells have many functions, type 2 can divide to replace damaged type 1 cells.
a. Type I form the very thin simple squamous epithelium of the alveoli in junction with capillaries. Make up roughly 95% of alveolar epithelial cells.
b. Type II produce and secrete pulmonary surfactant which is needed throughout the alveolar surface to keep the alveoli open. In addition, Type II cells can divide to replace damaged Type I cells. Make up roughly 5% of alveolar epithelial cells.

Question 23
4 / 4 pts
The pressure of three gases equals 1 atmosphere. What is the partial pressure of oxygen (in mmHG)if nitrogen is 100 mmHg and carbon dioxide is 150 mmHg? To receive full credit you must show your work.
Your Answer:
1atm is 760mmHg
760-(150+100)=510mmHG
510 mmHG
1atm= 760 mmHg
100 mmHg + 150 mmHG + X = 760 mmHg OR: 760 - 100-150= 510 mmHG
Question 24
3 / 3 pts
Which part of the respiratory system is surrounded by capillaries? Why? Your Answer:
Alveoli. Alveoli is where o2 passes from the air intothe blood and CO2 passes froom blood to the lungs
The alveoli are surrounded by capillaries. This is where oxygen passes from the air into the blood and carbon dioxide passes from the blood into the lungs.
Question 25
3 / 3 pts
Explain why incomplete ventilation is important for effective gas exchange. Your Answer:
It helps to maintain a constant temp within the lungs. The greater the temp is, the greater the gas exchange is
Incomplete ventilation helps to maintain a constant temperature within the lungs. The increased temperature allows for greater gas exchange.

From widest to narrowest, the branches of the bronchial tree are:
Secondary bronchi, tertiary bronchi, primary bronchi, bronchioles Bronchioles, primary bronchi, secondary bronchi, tertiary bronchi
Tertiary bronchi, secondary bronchi, primary bronchi, bronchioles Correct!
Primary bronchi, secondary bronchi, tertiary bronchi, bronchioles Question 27
3 / 3 pts
In gas exchange (external respiration):
Carbon dioxide diffuses from alveoli into capillaries, oxygen diffuses from capillaries into alveoli
Oxygen and carbon dioxide is carried from alveoli into the bronchioles Correct!
Oxygen diffuses from alveoli into capillaries, carbon dioxide diffuses from capillaries into alveoli
Oxygen is chemically transformed into carbon dioxide within the alveoli Question 28
3 / 3 pts
The purpose of alveolar macrophages is to:
Produce a lipoprotein
Form a thin, simple squamous epithelium of the alveoli Produce mucous in order to trap bacteria
Correct!
Act as the primary immune defense within the alveoli Question 29
10 / 10 pts
Answer the following essay question (10 points):
1. Muscular dystrophy is a neuromuscular disease which restricts the lungs from fully expanding due to muscular weakness. If a person is diagnosed with muscular dystrophy:
1) Which of the following statements regarding pulmonary function would be true?
2) Explain your answer.
A. Inspiratory capacity would be abnormally low
B. Vital capacity would abnormally high
C. Total lung capacity would remain the same Your Answer:
1- Inspiratory capacity would be abnormally low
2- Muscular dystrophy is a progressive weakness and is a degeneration of skeletel muscles surrounding lungs. The muscles that are responsible for inspiration of air are damaged, the breathing is impared. The muscles are weakneed that helps the lungs expand. They are not able to expand air for inhalation.
A. Inspiratory capacity would be abnormally low
Vital capacity would decrease because there is a decreased ability to bring in as much air compared to normal values because of muscular weakness.
Inspiratory Capacity (IC) = TV+IRV (or) VC-ERV Decreased VC, decreased IC
