What tissue prevents food and liquids from entering the respiratory tract?
i think its the trachea but I'm only a 13 year old girl so what do i know. i guess i will see if I'm right tomorrow. ill get back with the answer
What are the three types of respiration?
respiration means breaking down of food particles
i dont no want u meant?
What are the factors that influence your vital capacity?
Factors which may affect tidal volume and therefore overall minute ventilation during invasive ventilation include: lung compliance and resistance, Correct ETT/ tracheostomy positioning, adequate cuff pressure, ventilator settings ( eg. Is the pt in a controlled or spontaneous mode of ventilation, the level of pressure support dialed up etc), the patients conscious state and the patency of the ETT/tracheostomy tube.
How do the cardiovascular system and respiratory system work together to remove waste products?

Which major organ is in the digestive and excretory?
If I remember my schooling they are the lungs, liver,kidneys and the skin. Each organ filters the blood to remove toxins.
How do diseases in the circulatory and respiratory begin to develop?
Diseases of the circulatory and respiratory systems begin to develop due to disorders of the heart and lungs.
How does breathing sustain human life?
Oxygen is necessary for the muscles, tissues, and organs in your body. It is also extremely important for the brain to function, as a prolonged period of not-enough oxygen to the brain will result in brain damage and more severely brain death.
When you breathe, the Oxygen is inhaled into your lungs where it diffuses into the blood oxygenating the blood that is lacking oxygen as your heart pumps this non-oxygenated blood to the lungs.
Once the blood has been oxygenated by the lungs, the heart continues pumping this blood throughout the body and delivers the oxygenated blood to the various tissues, muscles, and organs in your body.
Then this blood is no longer containing oxygen, so the heart continues to pump it back through the heart and to the lungs to be re-oxygenated. And the cycle continues with each breath you take...
Oxygen is needed in the reformation of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) from ADP in the body. ATP is used in metabolic processes as an energy source and is therefore required for life.
What the structure of the respitory system?
The pulmonary system is the portion of the cardiovascular system that takes deoxygenated blood away from the heart. It then takes this blood to the lungs and returns it back to the heart.
The elastic fibres recoil after the alveoli contract during expiration. The surfactant on the inner surface also helps to stop the alveolar walls 'sticking' together which will stop air from coming due to the pressure not being able to decrease
How would you redesign the human respiratory system?
It's pretty amazing the way it was designed. I might modify it so that people would have a more sever reaction if they inhaled something harmful, such as cigarette smoke. But in general, everything works great until something goes wrong. The design is good, it's like everything else, sometimes things just break.
Why do people need respiration?
To convert oxygen in the air into a usable form in the blood stream. Without adequate oxygen in the blood your tissues will not get enough oxygen to function properly resulting in tissue ischemia (suffocating) and necrosis (death)
What organs does anaerobic respiration affect?
It affects your lungs and your Thorax. It also causes really bad breathing problems which a lot of the time people have to take medicine or have surgery for.
Why is the respiratory system important for aerobic exercise?
It transfers oxygen into the bloodstream with the takes it to our muscles with use it through cell respiration creating energy
so they can breath :)
Which organ system takes oxygen out of the air?
In air breathing animals, the lings are the organ system that takes in air and extracts oxygen for distribution through the circulatory system.
In water breathing animals, the gills perform this function.
Those smaller animals that have neither lungs nor gills usually have a system for direct absorption of oxygen from the air, or water.
What structures are involved in the air distribution function of the respiratory system?
Organ Structure Larynx - made up of cartilage- contains the vocal cords; two highly elastic folds Trachea - a hollow tube surrounded by tough, flexible C-shaped cartilage rings- lined with cilia - lined with mucus secreting cells Lung - composed of the bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli
Expectant if exposure is to a pulmonary agent and less than 4 hrs. If more than 4 hrs to a vesicant (which is the question here), then delayed. Google CBRNE - Evaluation of a Chemical Warfare Victim
the respiratory system since that is where your lungs are located
Pulmonary surfactant is a surface active material composed of lipids and proteins which is found in the fluid lining the alveoli.
Surfactant prevents alveolar collapse. In addition, it is involved in the protection of the lungs from injuries and infections caused by inhaled particles and micro-organisms.
Why is hemoglobin an effective respiratory pigment?
The Bohr effect and cooperative binding of oxygen to hemoglobin is what makes it an effective carrier of oxygen from the lungs to the peripheral tissues. What is cooperative binding? The first oxygen bind less strongly to oxygen then does the subsequent oxygen molecules (hemoglobin has four binding zones for oxygen). This means that the binding curve is fairly steep. The Bohr effect is a negative effect on binding of oxygen by hemoglobin in the presence of increased pH. Since peripheral tissues release C02 it increases the local pH releasing the oxygen. After the first oxygen is released the remaining oxygen molecules are quickly disassociated from hemoglobin thus delivering the oxygen to the tissue in need of oxygen.
A flowchart is basically a diagram outlining important steps in a specific process. A flowchart of the human digestive system is a useful tool for gaining information quickly on the important functions of the digestive system and the parts involved.
Why mucous secretion important to the respiratory system?
mucus secretion is important because your body needs to keep your mouth, nasal cavity (the inside of your nose)and lungs moist and to keep the mucus membranes protected. it also is found in the stomach and intestines.
