| #1 | What makes up the upper respiratory system? | Nose/mouth, and pharynx |
| #2 | What makes up the lower respiratory system? | Larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli |
| #3 | What is another word for the throat? | Pharynx |
| #4 | What is another word for the voice box? | Larynx |

| Physiology | ||
| #1 | What is the definition of respiration? | The exchange of gases between the atmosphere, blood, and cells |
| #2 | What is the function of the alveoli? | Gas exchange. Oxygen goes into tissues and body and carbon dioxide leaves tissues and body |
| #3 | What is step 1 of respiration | Pulmonary ventilation = Breathing. Inhalation and expiration |
| #4 | What is step 2 of respiration | External (pulmonary) respiration. exchange of O2 and CO2 in alveoli |
| #5 | How does the diaphragm allow us to breathe? | It uses muscles to pull down creating a vacuum and sucking air in, it then releases the muscle pushing the air back out |
| Diseases: | ||
| #1 | Asthma | Can be caused by allergies, cold, exercise, etc + swelling of the airways |
| #2 | Tuberculosis | Bacterial growth in the lung tissue + Cough, chest pain, + coughing up blood |
| #3 | Disease causes fluid build up in your lungs | Pneumonia |
| #4 | Disorder caused by excess mucus production due to faulty transport proteins | Cystic Fibrosis |
| #5 | Emphysema | Smoking or pollution + gradual shortness of breath |
| Randoms | ||
| #1 | Why is blood red? | The oxygen oxidizing the iron in your blood |
| #2 | What is the scientific word for a nose job? | Rhinoplasty |
| #3 | What is an ear, nose, and throat doctor called? | Otorhinolaryngology |
| #4 | Which Structure brings deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the heart? | Pulmonary artery |
| #5 | Which structure brings oxygenated blood to the heart? | Pulmonary vein |
| Structure | ||
| #1 | Starting with you mouth how does air enter the body? | Mouth ->Pharynx -> Larynx ->Trachea -> Bronchi -> Bronchioles ->Alveoli |
| #2 | The trachea extends from the ___________ down to the ____________ | Larynx, Bronchi |
| #3 | Why is it called the respiratory tree? | Because it looks like an upside down tree |
| #4 | What is the difference between the bronchi and bronchioles | The bronchi are the 2 branches, the bronchioles are the many branches that end int he alveoli |
| #5 | What fluid is in the alveoli? | Surfactant |
| Final Question | |
| What are the hiccups? | A spasm of the diaphragm |
