Maria Martinez Anatomy and physiology II TTH 2:20 “Demonstrating the Importance of Surfactant: Lab Report” Introduction Surfactant is an essential component for the respiratory system to function properly. This experiment was administrated to help us understand better the role of surfactant in the alveolar system. Surfactant is a detergent-like substance produced by the Type II alveolar cells in the alveoli. Surfactant is produced to make it easier for people to breath by reducing the surface

Unit 5 Outcome 2 – Energy Metabolism Booklet The Respiratory System The respiratory system consists of the nose‚ mouth‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ trachea‚ bronchi and lungs. These provide a passageway to allow air in and out of the body. Every cell in the body requires oxygen to survive. The primary function of the respiratory system is the exchange of gases. The respiratory system allows oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange‚ this is necessary to sustain life. During the process of breathing air is inhaled

EFFECT OF ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE ON THE ENVIROMENT THE BIOSPHERE Variations in atmospheric pressure can present special problems for the respiratory systems of animals because atmospheric pressure affects the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide that occurs during animal respiration. Normal atmospheric pressure at sea level is the total pressure that a column of air above the surface of the Earth exerts (760 millimetres of mercury‚ or 1 atmosphere)

toxins which cause respiratory effects as well as immune depression. The red tide events seem to be increasing‚ especially on Florida’s west coast. One controversial theory for this increase says that nutrient pollution from runoff may contribute to the widespread growth of the algae. The National Institute of Health began studying the problem in 2000. Their study looked first at the effects of the red tide toxins on mice. The mice surprisingly did not show any respiratory effects‚ but did show

4_Epiglottis Function (700 words) The epiglottis is located above the larynx. The function of the epiglottis is to protect the respiratory system from foreign particles‚ such as food. During swallowing‚ the epiglottis is depressed over the larynx. When breathing‚ it is open to allow air to travel freely. This article seeks to explain the function of the epiglottis and problems that may be associated with it. Epiglottis Function and Anatomy The epiglottis is formed by elastic cartilage and is
