Why pause between inspiration and expiration in bronchial breathing?
Wiki User
∙ 11y ago
inspiration is an active process that takes place by creation of negative intrathoracic pressure, in normal states where breathing is vesicular, even at a low negative pressure air keep on flowing into alveoli but in bronchial breathing as alveoli are either filled with secretions as in consolidation or a cavity is already filled with air and other contents, no movement of air takes place at the end inspiration despite of negative intrathoracic pressure thereby causing a pause between inspiration and expiration- now pay me thousand dollar!

What is different between inspiration and expiration?
Expired means past use or dead. Inspired (inspire) means to be enlivened or filled with exalting emotion.
Which muscies is responsible for inspiration when breathing?
The diaphragm, a sheet of muscles spanning the rib cage just below the lungs, is mainly responsible for both inspiration and expiration. The intercostal muscles are also used, expanding and contracting the the space between the ribs. The abdominal muscles are used to a lesser extent either by relaxing to allow further expansion of the diaphragm or contraction for rapid expulsion of air. (Note to the person who answered this question previously: "Inspiration" means to inhale. "Expiration means to exhale. Don't tell someone that they don't know what they are talking about unless you know what you are talking about.)
Why does the lung collapse if intrapleural pressure is not maintain?
Inspiration happens when the pressure inside the lungs is lower than the atmospheric pressure (outside) and air rushes into the lungs. Expiration is when the air inside the lungs is higher than the atmospheric pressure and the air rushes out of the lungs. If the intrapleural pressure (pressure within the pleura of the lungs) isn't maintained then the pressure in the lungs can't differentiate between inspiration and expiration and so the lung collapses.
What carries air between the pharynx and bronchial tubes?
The "Trachea".
What does an abnormal connection between a bronchial tube and the pleural cavity mean?
bronchopleural
Is rectus abdominis a muscle of inspiration?
Actually, no. The rectus abdominis is a muscle that helps with the digestion of food, helps to hold organs in one place and gives you the "6 pack" feature when doing sit ups. There are two other muscles on the ribs that help the lungs with inspiration. They are the Intercostalis muscles. One is on the ribs themselves and one is on the gaps between the ribs. They move the ribs in and out with the lungs with every inspiration and expiration. Hope this helps!
The intercostals are located?
The intercostal muscles are located between the ribs. They play important roles in breathing. There are two sets of intercostal muscles, external and internal. The external intercostals contract during normal inspiration, causing the rib cage to expand out and up and thus increase the volume of the chest cavity. The internal intercostals are used during forced expiration only. When they contract, the rib cage pulled down and together, shrinking the volume of the chest cavity.
Which structure is located between the trachea and a bronchiole?
The larynx is the structure that is located between the trachea and the bronchial. The trachea is the tube that runs from the larynx to the bronchi.
What is the difference between canonicity and inspiration?
