Cigarette smoke irritates the lining of your airway, causing it to [6]; this makes the diameter of your airway [7] and slows the movement of air. Smoke also slows the movement of [8]. Is a "smoker's cough" due to damage of alveoli or bronchial tubes? [9] Is a long-term smoker's difficulty breathing due to damage of alveoli or bronchial tubes? [10] [11] is a lung disease caused by damage to the alveoli.

When a patient has chronic bronchitis, what happens to the alveolar capillary junction?

Which of the following are characteristics of a secondary bronchus? 1.   presence of hyaline cartilage plates 2.   presence of smooth muscle 3.   airway lined by simple cuboidal (ciliated) epithelium 4.   airway lined by simple columnar (ciliated) epithelium 5.   simple squamous epithelium Choose the following: (A) 1, 2, and 3 (B) 1, 2, and 4 (C) 2 and 3 (D) 2 and 4 (E) 2, 3, and 4

Are respiratory processes affected by environmental factors such as altitude and cold temperature training? Describe these environmental factors effects on the lungs.

Atmospheric pressure is less than Sam's alveolar pressure. Which of the following is TRUE? Sam's intrapleural pressure is decreasing. Sam's diaphragm is relaxed. Sam is inhaling.

Which of the the following will increase bronchiolar resistance? increased mucous  decreased alveolar elastin increased bronchial branching  increased smooth muscle tone

As a result of secreting surfactant into the alveolar space, surface tension of water. cells the Type Il alveolar, increase Type I alveolar, reduce Type Il alveolar, reduce O Type I alveolar, increase Red blood, decrease

According to Laplace's Law:

Smoking damages two parts of the respiratory system: the airways known as the [1] and small air sacs called the [2]. [3] in your airway helps capture debris (dust, smoke, pathogens) in the air you breathe, then structures called [4] sweep the [5] and debris out of your lungs. Cigarette smoke irritates the lining of your airway, causing it to [6]; this makes the diameter of your airway [7] and slows the movement of air. Smoke also slows the movement of [8]. Is a "smoker's cough" due to damage of alveoli or bronchial tubes? [9] Is a long-term smoker's difficulty breathing due to damage of alveoli or bronchial tubes? [10] [11] is a lung disease caused by damage to the alveoli.

Does carbon dioxide move from the blood to the alveoli or from the alveoli to the blood and Why does it move in this direction (use it's partial pressures)?
