Respiratory System

The respiratory system includes the lungs and the airway. The questions in this category focus mainly on the anatomical and physiological processes associated with breathing.

How do you rewire a starting system on a 1993 sea doo sp jet ski and how does the system work it has a new solenoid and starter is good but it wont turn over?

is the safety ignition switch for lanyard attachment working with out the switch being pushed in there is no current to the starter i would also check the battery, batteries are notorious for only lasting one season

What happens when a inductor reaches a steady state?

An inductor looks like a piece of wire to DC. It will thus look like a resistor, and inductor properties do not apply.

What is in the upper airway?

The nose, pharynx, and trachea are the parts of the upper airway. The tubes of the lungs comprise the lower airway.

What is the common purpose of respiratory and circulatory system?

The common purpose of the respiratory and circulatory systems are bringing oxygen into the body for cellular processes, and bringing carbon dioxide waste out of the body. The circulatory system has many other functions as well.

What causes the air pressure in your lungs to decrease and make you inhale?

When you inhale, oxygen fills your lungs. Next the oxygen diffuses out of your lungs into your bloodstream. The diffusion of oxygen from the lungs causes less pressure in your lungs signaling your brain that you need to inhale.

How a infection affecting the respiratory system would directly threaten a person's health?

If you have an infection in the respiratory system then this can cause your airways to become restricted so that you cannot breath.

What transfers waster filled blood from tissue into the pulmonary circulation?

The systemic veins and heart transfer waste-filled blood from the tissues into the pulmonary circulattion. The sytsemic veins bring waste-filled blood to the right atrium, which pumps it into the right ventricle, which pumps it into the pulmonary circulation.

What are the micro and macro structures of the lungs?

The macro structures of the lungs are what you can see. They would be the lobes of the lungs, bronchi, large blood vessels, lymph nodes and bronchioles. The micro structures are one you can not see without a microscope. That would be the vey small bronchioles, capillaries and the alveoli.

What are the functions of physiological dead space?

There is no function of the physiological dead space. It is inevitable to be there in this design of respiration. So it is the defect in the design. But you have a very large physiological reserve to overcome the defect in this design. You have very effective system as in case of fish to get the oxygen out of water. But there is very low oxygen contents in water, making it essential to have such effective mechanism. Such effective mechanism is not necessary when abundant oxygen is available in air.

Why do we need to take care of your respiratory system?

"Well it's funny you ask. Every system in your body is controlled by the nervous system. The first system that develop is your nervous system. One good way to make sure your body is functioning at 100 percent is to protect against subluxations. A subluxation is when your spinal bones rotate and pinch the nerves blocking the messages there sending to the rest of the body. The only people who can correct subluxation is a chiropractor. Try it before you judge you won't be dissapointed."

A tiny explosion inside your respiratory system is called a?

Its called an Abobafart. It ic called this because tiny elves that move the diaphragm are called Abobs. When they fart its so smelly that a small explosion occurs in the diaphragm, causing it to move fast. This causes shortness of breath and enflames some broncials in your lung. If the Abobs fart too much, you get athsma.

When you inhale the diaphram does what?

it contracts when you exhale because it is pushing the air out of your lungs.

What is the difference between cellular respiration and breathing?

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells generate energy from glucose and oxygen, producing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Breathing, on the other hand, is the mechanism by which organisms bring oxygen into their bodies and expel carbon dioxide. Breathing is necessary for the exchange of gases during cellular respiration to occur.

How do you control your breathing rate?

For the most part, you don't. Breathing is controlled by a part of the nervous system that is independently controlled by a number of "feedback mechanixms". When your body works harder and your heart speeds up, your breathing follows suit as it tries to maintain your oxygen levels within an acceptable range. There are lots of stories of those who have spent years developing the ability to control their breathing with amazing results, but I haven't met any of them. You can contol your breathing as long as you are concentrating on it; make it smoother, faster, deeper, etc., but as soon as your attention is diverted, your "automatic" mode kicks back in. Good thing, too, or sleep would be impossible.

Affects of exercise on respiratory minute volume?

Respiratory minute volume refers to the volume of breath per minute. During exercise, this amount increases up to 20 to 30 times the normal value. Exercising regularly improves lung performance and makes breathing easier.

The main function of the respiratory system is to?

The main function of the respiratory system is the exchange of gases. It brings in oxygen and elmiinates carbon dioxide.

What are the homeostatic mechanisms for regulation of body temperature?

In cold whether, the blood vessels to the skin constrict to reduce the blood supply. The skin is very good insulating agent to prevent the heat loss. In hot climate the blood vessels dilate and produce lot of sweat. By evaporation of the sweat, you lose the heat to atmosphere.

How to repair a 2001 Jeep grand Cherokee dual climate control system where there is no air flow through the system?

If you do not have air flow in the system, probably your fan controller is not getting any juice, to check look under the glove box in the passenger side, you will see a black box bolted to the HVAC module, there is a 3 wire plug that runs to it and 2 wire plug that runs from it to the fan motor, the 3 wire plug has ground wire on one external side, positive wire on the other external side and signal wire from the dual climate control to set fan speed, the biggest issue I've seen with these fan speed control module is that the positive feeding wire over heat and melt, the spade solder in the receptacle, so a good sound connection and resolder is the solution unless you have damaged the board.
