What is the medical term meaning narrowing of the bronchus?
Bronchostenosis is abnormal narrowing of the bronchus.
What is the result of inspiration and expiration?
This occurs within the respiratory system. During inpiration, the intercostal muscles contract, the diaphragm descends, and the rib cage rises. The thoracic cavity volume increases, stretching the lungs, and the intrapulmonary volume increases. This causes the intrapulmonary pressure to drop. Air flows into the lungs until the intrapulmonary pressure equals the atmospheric pressure. During expiration the intercostal muscles relax, the diaphragm rises, and the rib cage descends. The thoracic cavity volume decreases, causing the the lungs to recoil, and the intrapulmonary volume decreases. This causes the intrapulmonary pressure to rise, and the air flows out of the lungs until the intrapulmonary pressure equals the atmospheric pressure.
What is a buccal mucosa?
Buccal mucosa is the mucosa lining the inside of the cheeks, and lips. Although the mucosa lining the inside of the lips is sometimes referred to labial mucosa, but it essentially just a continuation of the buccal mucosa. It is composed of stratified non-keritinised epithelium.This type of epithelliem in the oral cavity is also termed 'lining mucosa'. As apposed to 'masticatory mucosa' which covers the hard palate, attached gingiva, and dorsal surface of the tongue. There is also 'specialized mucosa' which is only found on the dorsal surface f the tongue.
Definition of intrapulmonary pressure?

used to treat rectal prolapse.The Delorme procedure involves the resection of only the mucosa (inner lining) of the prolapsed rectum. The exposed muscular layer is then folded and stitched up and the cut edges of mucosa stitched together.
What happens to the intrapulmonary pressure when intrapulmonary volume increases?
Pressure increases as volume increases, granted the container stays the same.
When intrapulmonary pressure drops below atmospheric pressure what is able to occur?
Inspiration occurs when the intrapulmonary pressure decreases to below atmospheric pressure
What is the plural of bronchus?
Bronchi is the plural of bronchus.
What is the result of intrapulmonary volume increase?
inspirtation
Does bronchus come after bronchiole?
No, bronchioles branch of a bronchus.
What is the main difference between a bronchus and a bronchiole?
A bronchiole has no cartilage in its wall, a bronchus does.
How would you use bronchus in a sentence?
bronchus diverges from the windpipe. bronchus enters lung and provides air passage.
What would occur when he atmosheric pressure is higher than intrapulmonary pressure?
When the atmospheric pressure is higher than intrapulmonary pressure pressure, inspiration will not take place.
Comparing with the right main bronchus the left main bronchus?
The right main bronchus is wider, shorter, and more vertical than the left. The left main bronchus is smaller in caliber,but 5 cm longer than the left bronchus.
Is air filtered in the bronchus?
I think air is filtered in the bronchus
