Ducts from the sinuses open into the internal nose providing a passageway for microorganisms to travel into the sinuses. B.) What is the couch reflex? Describe the process that Cari’s respiratory system is using to clear her lungs by couching. - A long drawn and deep inhalation followed by a complete closure of the glottis

The cough reflex is the body’s was of elimination pathogens‚ particulate matter‚ liquid‚ and toxins from the body (Canning‚ 2006). In Cari’s case cilia lining the upper respiratory tract in charge of filtering inhaled air are paralyzes from smoking‚ so toxins are able to get into the lungs. When this happens

how close the passages and sinuses are to each other. B. What is the cough reflex? Describe the process that Cari’s respiratory system is using to clear her lungs by coughing. The cough reflex is deep inhalation followed by complete closure of the glottis and strong exhalation suddenly opening the glottis‚ and blasting air through the upper respiratory passages. Cari’s respiratory system is forcing out mucous in order to maintain enough space within her lungs for oxygen. C. Which structures found

Premium Respiratory system Respiratory physiology
How lungs Work Your lungs are part of a group of organs and tissues that all work together to help you breathe. This system is called the respiratory system. The main job of the respiratory system is to move fresh air into and get waste gases out of the body. Lungs are very important because Oxygen‚ a basic gas‚ is needed by every cell in your body in order to live. The air that comes into the body through the lungs contains oxygen and other gases.
