Q: Why are alveolar type II cells important in maintaining theinflation of the lungs?

A: Lung inflation can be described as a process in the lungs during which a force is generated by the…

Q: Explain The peripheral chemoreceptors stimulate ventilation?

A: The peripheral chemoreceptors are the aortic and carotid bodies, which primarily act to find…

Q: What effect does an increase in lactate have on alveolar ventilation?

A: Lactate is produced by the cells when energy is produced from food during cell metabolism. Lactate…

A: The respiratory system has the primary function of the taking in oxygen and elimination the carbon…

Q: What is MAC (Minimum Alveolar Concentration)? Explain its importances.

A: Anesthesia refers to the administration of the drug to avoid pain or sensation during a surgery. The…

Q: What is the role of gas partial pressures in pulmonary diffusion

A: Diffusion is the natural flow of molecules between the oxygen in the alveoli and the blood in the…

Q: What properties of air make it possible for humans and other mammals to breathe by tidal…

A: Tidal volume is the amount of air that travels in and out of the lungs with the respiratory cycle.…

Q: How does an uncoupler of respiration work?

A: Aerobic respiration follows specific biochemical pathways (glycolysis, citric acid cycle, electron…

Q: How does surfactant reduce lung recoil? What happens ifthe alveoli have insufficient surfactant?

A: The property of the lungs to expand and contract depending on the changes in the pressure is…

Q: How does rapid respiring of skeletal muscles increase the unloading of oxygen by oxyhemoglobin

A: Decreased pH and increased temperature shift the oxygen dissociation curve for hemoglobin to the…

Q: What is minute ventilation?

A: KEY WORDS :- Ventilation - It is the air flowing into the lungs and flows outside the lungs.
