Identify and describe the anatomical structures that allow for internal and external respiration to occur in humans.
View the anatomical models Figure 36.1, Figure 36.3 (a)and(b),and Figure 36.5 (a) from your Laboratory Manual and identify the structures that are described by the following abbreviated statements. Post your brief responses in the threaded Discussion Areabelow:
Lymphoid tissue protecting air passageways
Increases air turbulence in the nasal cavity
Covers the glottis during swallowing
Contains the vocal cords
Connects the larynx to the primary bronchi
Balloon-like structures at ends of the respiratory bronchioles
Section of the lung that lies on the diaphragm
Outer double-layered serous membrane
Impression on the left lung to accommodate the heart
View the histology slides Figure 36.6 (b)and Figure 36.7 (a)and (b) in your Laboratory Manual and identify the microscopic structures indicated by a leader line, number, or bracket. In the threaded Discussion Area below, briefly describe the function of:
Figure 36.6 (b) pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
Figure 36.6 (b) goblet cell
Figure 36.6 (b) hyaline cartilage
Figure 36.7 (a) lumen of bronchiole
Figure 36.7 (b) alveolar duct
