- John, a 72-year-old grandfather, had been smoking heavily for 24 years and had a persistent cough. A biopsy of his lung tissue revealed considerable amounts of carbon particles. How could this happen considering the natural cleaning mechanism of the respiratory system?arrow_forward85. A 25-year-old man has shortness of breath after working in a dusty room. Airway resistance is increased. Most of the increased resistance occurs at which of the following sites? A) Conducting bronchioles B) Larynx C) Main bronchus D) Oropharynx E) Respiratory bronchioles F) Tracheaarrow_forwardOxygen diffuses from the inhaled air in the alveoli of the lungs, where its concentration is higher, into the cytoplasm of red blood cells, where its concentration is lower. Patients diagnosed with emphysema have damaged alveoli. This results to fewer, larger air spaces instead of many small ones. Explain how this damage can lead to shortness of breath? The surface area of lungs is reduced. Hence, less oxygen can diffuse into the red blood cells. The surface area of lungs is increased. Hence, more oxygen can diffuse into the red blood B cells. The surface area of lungs is reduced. Hence, more oxygen can diffuse into the red blood cells. The surface area of lungs is increased. Hence, less oxygen can diffuse into the red blood cells.arrow_forward
