  1. The process of gaseous exchange between the individual and the environment

    respiration

  2. 3 process of respiration

    Ventilation, diffusion, perfusion

  3. provide a route for air to move between the outside atmosphere and the lungs. They also clean, humidity, and warm the incoming air.

    Upper airways

  4. structures pull in air from the upper respiratory system, absorb the oxygen, and release carbon dioxide in exchange

    Lower airways

  5. from posterior nares to soft palate

    nasopharynx

  6. from soft palate to hyoid bone

    oropharynx

  7. from hyoid bone to esophagus

    Laryngopharynx

    Thyroid

  12. leaf shaped moves up and down during swallowing to prevent food from entering trachea

    Epiglottis

  13. point of attachment for vocal cords

    Aretynoid

  14. Functions of the larynx

    Air passageway, Filters, warms, humidifies air, protects airway against entrance of solid or liquids, voice production.

  15. is the wind pipe, made of C shaped rings of cartilage, incomplete on the posterior surface.

    Trachea

  16. Fluid inside each alveoli, prevents alveoli from collapsing as air moves in and out
