    48) Describe the inward forces of elastic recoil, and explain why the lungs do not normally

    collapse during expiration.

    Answer:

  • Difficulty: Medium

    Study Objective 1: SO 23.2 Describe the events that cause inhalation and exhalation.

    Section Reference 1: Sec 23.2 Pulmonary Ventilation

    Solution: Elastic recoil is the recoil of elastic fibers stretched during inspiration and the pull of

    the surface tension of alveolar fluid. Intrapleural pressure is always subatmospheric during

    normal breathing, which tends to pull lungs outward and to keep alveolar pressure from

    equalizing with atmospheric pressure. Surfactant in alveolar fluid decreases surface tension to

    help prevent collapse.

    49) Why is epinephrine injected as a treatment for the respiratory signs and symptoms of

    Difficulty: Medium

    Study Objective 2: SO 23.1.1 Describe the anatomy and histology of the nose, pharynx, larynx,

    trachea, bronchi, and lungs.

    Section Reference 1: Sec 23.1 Respiratory System Anatomy

    Solution: Epinephrine enhances sympathetic activity to dilate airways and decrease airway

    resistance, which had been elevated by the effects of histamine on the bronchioles. It also raises

    blood pressure, which enhances oxygen delivery to tissues by increasing flow.

    50) Describe and explain the effects of smoking on the functioning of the respiratory system.

    Answer:

    Difficulty: Medium

    Study Objective 1: SO 23.11 Describe the disorders that affect the respiratory system.

    Section Reference 1: Disorders: Homeostatic Imbalances that Affect the Respiratory System

    Solution: Nicotine constricts terminal bronchioles to increase airway resistance, as does the

    increased mucus secretion and swelling of the mucosa. Smoke inhibits the movement of cilia,

    which allows buildup of substances and microbes normally removed. Over time, smoking leads

    to destruction of elastic tissue, which decreases compliance, and ultimately to the effects of

    emphysema.

    51) Describe the neural, chemical, and physical changes that increase the rate and depth of

    ventilation during exercise.

    Answer:

  • Difficulty: Medium

    Study Objective 1: SO 23.7 Describe the effects of exercise on the respiratory system.

    Section Reference 1: Sec 23.7 Exercise and the Respiratory System

    Solution: Anticipation of exercise generates neural input to the limbic system. Sensory input is

    provided from proprioceptors and motor input is provided from the primary motor cortex. As the

    partial pressure of oxygen falls due to increased consumption, the partial pressure of carbon

    dioxide and the temperature increase due to metabolic activity in muscle fibers. Also, carbon

    dioxide is added via the buffering of the hydrogen ions produced as a result of lactic acid

    production. Chemoreceptors sense the changes in partial pressure and notify the medullary

    rhythmicity center to increase the rate and depth of breathing.

    52) In chronic emphysema, some alveoli merge together and some are replaced with fibrous

    connective tissue. In addition, the bronchioles are often inflamed, and expiratory volume is

    reduced. Using proper respiratory system terminology, explain at least four reasons why affected

    individuals will have problems with ventilation and external respiration.

    Answer:

    Difficulty: Hard

    Study Objective 1: SO 23.11 Describe the disorders that affect the respiratory system.

    Section Reference 1: Disorders: Homeostatic Imbalances that Affect the Respiratory System

    Solution: Answers could include: reduced compliance (reduces ability to increase thoracic

    volume); increased airway resistance (decreases tidal volume); decreased diffusion due to

    increased diffusion distance, decreased surface area, and changes in partial pressures of gases

    (altering gradients). Other answers may be acceptable.
