Ans: the cessation of breathing
3). Asthma
Ans: an acute respiratory disorder characterized by unusually sensitive, irritated
conducing airways
4). Atelactasis
Ans: ateles (incomplete) and ekatasis (expansion); alveolar collapse due to loss of
surfactant
5). Bronchitis
Ans: inflammation of the bronchial lining
6). Compliance
Ans: an indication of the lungs resilience and ability to expand; the lower the
compliance, the greater the force required to fill and empty the lungs; the greater the
compliance, the easier it is to fill and empty the lungs

11). Pneumothroax
Ans: the entry of air into the pleural cavity
12). Pulmonary embolism
Ans: blockage of a branch of a pulmonary artery producing an interruption of blood
flow to a group of lobules and/or alveoli

19). Also known as the "adam's apple." it's inferior to the hyoid bone and superior to the cricoid
cartilage, protects the glottis and the entrance to the trachea
Ans: Thyroid Cartilage
20). Air passing through the glottis vibrates the vocal cords, producing sound waves.
Ans: Vocal Pitch
21). What sound is produced when the vocal cords are short and thin and they vibrate rapidly?
Ans: High-pitched tone

23). How many cartilages make up the tracheal wall?
Ans: 15-20 cartilages
24). What are the effects of the sympathetic activation the bronchioles?
Ans: It leads to relaxation of smooth muscles in the walls of the bronchioles, causing
bronchodilation
25). What are the effects of the parasympathetic activation on bronchioles?
Ans: Leads to a contraction of the smooth muscles, causing bronchoconstriction
26). The absorption of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide by the cells
