Midterm GradesYour midterm grades (due March 28) will be calculated as follows:Lec 1 Exam 100 pointsLec 2 Exam 100 pointsLab 1 Exam 100 pointsLaboratory Grade 25-35 points (5-7 labs so far)
Extra Credit 4 points
2
Total points possible so far...329-339 points
Your grade… (Ex., Total points you have / 330) * 100
Note: No grades will be dropped for calculation of midterm grade.
Mid-term CheckupBased on the three (3) grades you have received so far, you should do a mid-term checkup.
To find your average so far total the following points:Lec Exam 1 + Lec Exam 2 + Lab Exam 1 + Lab points (6 labs)
Example: (83 + 67 + 90 + 26) 330 = 0.80 (80%)
Dropping the low grade: (83 + 90 + 26) 230 = 0.86 (86%)

Lecture Overview
• Lectures 12 & 13– The breathing mechanism (ventilation)
– Respiratory volumes and capacities
– Nonrespiratory air movements
Alveolar gas exchange

– Alveolar gas exchange
– Transport of O2 and CO2 in the blood
– Control of breathing
– Factors affecting breathing
Gases and Pressure
• Our atmosphere is composed of several gases and exerts pressure– 78% N2, 21% O2, 0.4% H2O, 0.04% CO2
– 760 mm Hg, 1 ATM, 29.92” Hg, 15 lbs/in2,1034 cm H2O
6
• Each gas within the atmosphere exerts a pressure of its own (partial) pressure, according to its concentration in the mixture (Dalton’s Law)– Example: Atmosphere is 21% O2, so O2 exerts a partial
pressure of 760 mm Hg. x .21 = 160 mm Hg.
– Partial pressure of O2 is designated as PO2
3
Air Movements
• Moving the Figure from:
If Volume increases, pressure decreases and vice versa
Stated mathematically: P 1/V (Boyle’s Law)
7
Moving the plunger of a syringe causes air to move in or out
• Air movements in and out of the lungs occur in much the same way
gSaladin, Anatomy & Physiology, McGraw Hill, 2007
Lungs at RestWhen lungs are at rest, the pressure on the inside of the lungs is equal to the pressure on the outside of the thorax
Think of pressure differences as difference in the “concentration” of gas

edition, 2010

gmolecules and use the rules of diffusion.
Higher pressure means higher concentration (ignoring temperature difference)
Normal Inspiration• Intra-alveolar (intrapulmonary) pressure decreases to about 758 mm Hg as the thoracic cavity enlarges
An active process
9
• Atmospheric pressure (now higher than that in lungs) forces air into the airways
• Compliance – ease with which lungs can expand
Phrenic nerves of the cervical plexus stimulatediphragm to contract and move downward and external (inspiratory) intercostal muscles contract, expanding the thoracic cavity and reducing intrapulmonary pressure.
Attachment of parietal pleura to thoracic wall pulls visceral pleura, and lungs follow.
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th
edition, 2010

Maximal (Forced) InspirationThorax during normal inspiration
Thorax during maximal inspiration• aided by contraction ofsternocleidomastoid and pectoralis minor muscles
Compliance decreases as lung volume

Costal (shallow) breathing vs. diaphragmatic (deep) breathing
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th
edition, 2010
Normal Expiration
• due to elastic recoil of the lung tissues and abdominal organs• a PASSIVE process (no muscle contractions involved)
Normal expiration is caused by
- elastic recoil of the
11
lungs (elastic rebound) and abdominal organs
- surface tensionbetween walls of alveoli (what keeps them from collapsing completely?)
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th
edition, 2010
Maximal (Forced) Expiration
• contraction of abdominal wall muscles
• contraction of posterior

edition, 2010

posterior (expiratory) internal intercostal muscles
• An active, NOT passive, process

Terms Describing Respiratory Rate
• Eupnea – quiet (resting) breathing
• Apnea – suspension of breathing
• Hyperpnea – forced/deep breathing
13
• Dyspnea – difficult/labored breathing
• Tachypnea – rapid breathing
• Bradypnea – slow breathing
Know these
Nonrespiratory Air Movements• coughing – sends blast of air through glottis and clears upper respiratory tract
• sneezing – forcefully expels air through the nose and mouth
• laughing – deep breath released in a series of short convulsive expirations
14
p
• crying – physiologically same as laughing
• hiccupping – spasmodic contraction of diaphragm against closed glottis
• yawning – deep inspiration through open mouth
• valsalva maneuver – expiration against a closed glottis
Alveoli and Respiratory Membrane• consists of the walls of the alveolus and the capillary, and the basement membrane between them
1) cells of alveolar wall are tightly

2) the relatively high osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid draws water out of them
3) there is low pressure in the pulmonary circuit

Diffusion Through Respiratory Membrane
The driving for the exchange of gases between alveolar air and capillary blood is the difference in partial pressure between the gases.
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th
edition, 2010
19At a given temperature, the amount of a particular gas in solution is directly proportional to its partial pressure outside the solution (Henry’s Law)
Composition of Inspired and Alveolar Air

Factors Affecting O2 and CO2 Transport
• O2 and CO2 have limited solubility in plasma
• This problem is solved by RBCs
22
p y– Bind O2 to hemoglobin
– Use CO2 to make soluble compounds
– Reactions in RBCs are• Temporary
• Completely reversible
8
Oxygen Transport
• Most oxygen binds to hemoglobin to form oxyhemoglobin (HbO2)• Oxyhemoglobin releases oxygen in the regions of body cells• Much oxygen is still bound to hemoglobin in the venous blood
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th
edition, 2010
23But what special properties of the Hb molecule allow it to reversibly bind O2?

The O2-Hb Dissociation Curve
Recall that Hb can bind up to 4 molecules of O2 = 100% saturation
At 75% saturation, Hb binds 3 molecules of O2
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th
edition, 2010
25
on average
Sigmoidal (S) shape of curve indicates that the binding of one O2 makes it easier to bind the next O2
This curve tells us what the percent saturation of Hb will be at various partial pressures of O2
9
Oxygen ReleaseAmount of oxygen released from oxyhemoglobin increases as
• partial pressure of carbon dioxide increases• the blood pH decreases and [H+] increases (Bohr Effect; shown below)• blood temperature increases (not shown)• concentration of 2,3 bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) increases (not shown)

Carbon Dioxide Transport in Tissues
• dissolved in plasma (7%)• combined with hemoglobin as carbaminohemoglobin(15-25%)• in the form of bicarbonate ions (68-78%)
CO2 + H2O ↔ H2CO3

29CO2 exchange in LUNGS
Control of Respiration
• Homeostatic mechanisms intervene so that cellular gas exchange needs are met
• Control occurs at two levels
30
– Local regulation• Lung perfusion (blood flow; ~5.5 L/min)
• Alveolar ventilation (~4.2 L/min)
• Ventilation/perfusion coupling (matching)
– Respiratory center of the brain
Local Control of Respiration
• Local Control regulates…– Efficiency of O2 pickup in the lungs
• Lung perfusion (blood flow)– Alveolar capillaries constrict when local PO2 is low
– Tends to shunt blood to lobules with high PO2
31
Tends to shunt blood to lobules with high PO2
• Alveolar ventilation (air flow)– High PCO2 (hypercapnia) causes bronchodilation
– Low PCO2 (hypocapnia) causes bronchoconstriction
– Directs airflow to lobules with higher PCO2
– Rate of O2 delivery in each tissue• Changes in partial pressures
• Local vasodilation in peripheral tissues
11
Factors Affecting Resistance to Airflow
• Diameter of bronchioles– Bronchodilation (epinephrine, sympathetic
stimulation)
– Bronchoconstriction (parasympathetic ti l ti hi t i ld i h i l
32
stimulation, histamine, cold air, chemical irritants)
• Pulmonary compliance
• Surface tension of alveoli and distal bronchioles.
Neural Control of Respiration
Neural control of respiration has an autonomic as well as a

bodies
Stimulation leads to anincrease in the rate and depth of respiration

Control of Respiration
• Control of respiration is accomplished by:1) Local regulation
2) Nervous system regulation
38
• Local regulation– alveolar ventilation (O2), Blood flow to alveoli
– alveolar ventilation (O2), Blood flow to alveoli
– alveolar CO2, bronchodilation
– alveolar CO2, bronchoconstriction
13
Control of Respiration
• Nervous System Control– Normal rhythmic breathing -> DRG in medulla
– Forced breathing -> VRG in medulla
• Changes in breathing
39
g g– CO2 is most powerful respiratory stimulant
– Recall: H2O + CO2 ↔ H2CO3 ↔ H+ + HCO3-
– Peripheral chemoreceptors (aortic/carotid bodies)• PCO2, pH , PO2 stimulate breathing
– Central chemoreceptors (medulla)• PCO2, pH stimulate breathing
Breathing Reflexes
• Protective Reflexes– Sneezing - Triggered by an irritation of the nasal cavity
– Coughing – Triggered by an irritation of the larynx, trachea, or bronchi
– Both sneezing and coughing involve• A period of apnea
40
A period of apnea
• Forceful expulsion of air from lungs opening the glottis (up to 100 mph or more!!)
– Laryngeal spasms – chemical irritants, foreign objects, or fluids into the area around glottis
• Temporarily closes the airway
• Some stimuli, e.g., toxic gas, can close the glottis so powerfully that it doesn’t open again!
Clinical Application
The Effects of Cigarette Smoking on the Respiratory System
• cilia disappear• excess mucus produced• lung congestion increases lung i f ti

Review
• The atmosphere is composed of a mixture of gases– Each gas exerts a partial pressure (Pg)– Sum of all partial pressures = atmospheric
pressure (14.7 lbs/in2,760 mm Hg., …)
44
pressure (14.7 lbs/in ,760 mm Hg., …)
• Gases move from a higher concentration (pressure) to a lower concentration (pressure)
• Function of the diaphragm is to create a lower intrpulmonary pressure so that atmospheric gases flow into the lungs
Review
• Normal inspiration– An active process
– Phrenic nerve and diaphragm
– External (inspiratory) intercostal muscles
– Role of the lung pleura
45
Role of the lung pleura
• Normal expiration– A PASSIVE process
– Due to elasticity of lung/abdominal organs and alveolar surface tension
• Forced inspiration
• Forced expiration
15
Review
• Oxygen travels in the blood bound to Hb– Four O2 molecules can be bound to 1 Hb
– O2 bound to Hb - oxyhemoglobin
– Uptake and release of O2 is dependent upon PO2
46
in alveoli and tissues
– Several factors can increase the release of O2 from Hb
• Increased PCO2
• Increased [H+] (decreased pH)
• Increased temperature of blood
Review
• Carbon dioxide can travel in several ways– Dissolved in plasma (7%)– As carbaminohemoglobin (15-25%)– As HCO3
- ion (70%)• Recall: H2O + CO2 ↔ H2CO3 ↔ H+ + HCO3
-
47
• Carbonic anhydrase in RBCs accelerates interconversion between CO2 and HCO3
-
• H+ combines with or dissociates from Hb• HCO3
- diffuses into plasma or into RBCs • Cl- diffuses into RBC (chloride shift) as HCO3
- exits
• Diffusion of CO2 is related to PCO2 in alveoli and tissues
