Overview of Respiration and Kidney Functions

* Respiration The events of this are ventilation, external and internal respiration and cellular respiration * Breathing * Pitch The blank of a vocal sound is controlled by the changing of tension on the vocal cords * Larynx The vocal cords are found here * Laryngitis * Pharynx * Trachea This is lined with a ciliated mucous membrane, includes 20 c shaped cartilage rings, is a passageway for air * Atmospheric pressure The force that moves air into the lungs during inspiration comes from this * inspiratory reserve volume The volume of air that enters the lungs during forced maximal inspiration is this * vital capacity * respiratory distress syndrome This in newborns is caused by a lack of surfactant * tidal volume The volume of air that enters or leaves during a single respiratory cycle is this * Boyle's law The inverse relationship between pressure and volume is known as this * Hiccup A sun inspiration caused by a spasmodic contraction of the diaphragm while the glottis is closed is called this * carbon dioxide This is important in maintaining the pH of blood * Hyperventilation This is usually accompanied by a decrease in blood carbon dioxide concentration and a rise in pH * Kidneys * renal corpuscle * Nephron This consists of renal corpuscle and renal tubule * renal medulla This is composed of renal pyramids * renal tubule * PCT Reabsorption of glucose occurs primarily through the walls of this * Nephron loop The countercurrent mechanism functions primarily here * ADH This hormone promotes water reabsorption through the walls of the distal convoluted tubal in the collecting duct * glomerular filtration A dilated efferent arteriole would increase the rate of this * renal clearance test This determines the rate at which the kidneys can remove a particular substance from blood * 180 Glamor filtration produces about this many liters in 24 hours * urea * uric acid * 80% Up to this percent of urea is filtered and recycled * * how many lobes the two lungs have 5 right has more than left * serous fluid in the lungs * parts of a renal tubule in correct order * components of normal urine * Organs of the urinary system * When kidney cells start to die off in your 20s proximal , descending, then ascending , and
