What is the interval between expiration and inspiration?

The interval between expiration (breathing out) and inspiration (breathing in) is called the respiratory cycle. During this cycle, the lungs expand and contract to allow air to move in and out of the body.


Which respiratory sound is primarily heard during inspiration?

Wheezing is a respiratory sound primarily heard during expiration.


Which term describes an added sound with a magical pitch during breathing that is also known as wheezing?

The term is "stridor." Stridor is a high-pitched musical sound heard on inspiration or expiration that indicates turbulent airflow in the airway, often caused by narrowing or obstruction. It can be a sign of respiratory distress and should be evaluated promptly by a healthcare provider.


What forces cause normal expiration?

During normal expiration, the primary force responsible is the relaxation of the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles, leading to a decrease in thoracic volume. This increase in pressure within the lungs causes air to be pushed out. Additionally, elastic recoil of the lungs and chest wall helps to facilitate expiration by returning them to their resting position after inhalation.


What is the force responsible for normal expiration?

The force responsible for normal expiration is passive recoil of the lungs and chest wall. As the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles relax, the elastic recoil of these structures causes the lungs to decrease in volume, leading to expiration.

How many parts to pulmonary ventilation and what are they?

There are two parts. Inhalation and exhalation also known as inspiration and expiration. Inspiration is the process of breathing air into the lungs it helps in oxygenation.
