Respiration Definitions
•
•
•
•
Breathing/pulmonary ventilation
External respiration
Cellular respiration
Internal respiration
7
Breathing/pulmonary
Ventilation
• Process of gas exchange between
atmosphere and lungs
– Oxygen intake
– Carbon dioxide elimination
8
External Respiration
• Exchange of gases between lungs and
blood
• Driven by concentration gradients
9
Cellular Respiration
• Energy production via transformation of
biological compounds within the
mitochondria
10
Internal Respiration
• Exchange of O2 and CO2 between
blood and tissue cells
• Driven by concentration gradients
• Mechanisms of oxygen and carbon
dioxide transport in blood
11
Oxygen Transport
• Primarily as oxyhemoglobin
12
Carbon Dioxide
Transport
• Three ways
• CO2 +H2O -------->H2CO3------->HCO3- + H+
– in plasma
– carbonic anhydrase enzyme required
– 67%
13
Carbon Dioxide
Transport
• CO2 + Hb = carbamino compound
• 25%
14
Carbon Dioxide
Transport
• CO2 dissolved gas in plasma
8%

19
Nose – Internal
• Boney cavity

clean air as it passes over mucous
membrane
– Lined with ciliated mucous membrane
– Contains olfactory cells
– Moves mucus out of cavity
20
Nose
21
Nose
• Internal nares/choanae open into
pharynx
– Receives secretions from sinuses, lacrimal
duct
– Divided into right and left halves via
septum formed by
• Vomer
• Ethmoid (perpendicular plate
• Cartilage
22
Pharynx
• Funnel-shaped space between nasal
cavity and larynx
• Passage for air, food, resonating
chamber
23
Pharynx
24
Pharynx
• 3 divisions
• Nasopharynx
– Internal nares to
soft palate
– Contains
eustachian tube
openings,
pharyngeal
tonsils/adenoids
25
Pharynx
• Oropharynx
– Soft palate to
hyoid
– Entered from
mouth via
fauces
– Contains
palatine and
lingual tonsils
26
Pharynx
• Laryngopharynx
– Hyoid bone to
larynx and
esophagus
– Common
passageway for
respiratory and
digestive system
– Skeletal muscle
covered by
mucous
membrane
27
Larynx
• Framework of nine hyaline and elastic
cartilages
• Thyroid
• Cricoid
• Epiglottis (elastic cartilage)
• 2 arytenoid
• 2 corniculate
• 2 cuneiform
28
Larynx
29
Larynx
• Begins at hyoid bone
• Lined with ciliated mucous
membrane
30
Larynx
• 2 pairs of lateral folds
– Superior ventricular folds/false vocal cords
– Inferior aryepiglottal folds/true vocal cords
• Space between true and false vocal
cords = ventricle
• Space between 2 true cords = glottis
• Intrinsic and extrinsic muscles
• Sound quality affected by age & gender

48
Lung Lobules
• Each segment
divided into lobules
• Lobules consist of
respiratory
bronchiole, alveolar
duct, alveolar sac,
alveolus

52
Breathing Mechanics
• Air moves along pressure gradient
• Pressure and volume inversely related
(PV=nRT)
– Air moves into system as cavity volume increases
and pressure decreases
– Volume increases normally due to contraction of
• Diaphragm
• External intercostals
• .Strenuous breathing may also involve
– Sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis minor and scalene
muscles
53
Breathing Mechanics
• Inspiration/inhalation occurs when pressure
inside thoracic cavity < atmospheric pressure
• Expiration/exhalation normally occurs as a
passive process
• Rebound of elastic fibers in system
• External intercostals and diaphragm relax
• Forced expiration recruits internal
intercostals, abdominal muscles

Control of Respiration
• Neural
• Chemical/physical
58
Neural Control
• Three centers in pons and medulla
• Pneumotaxic center in pons
– Regulates rhythm
– Inhibits apneustic center
• Apneustic center in inferior pons
– Regulates inspiratory drive
– Stimulates inspiratory center in medulla
59
Neural
Control
60
Neural
• Medullary center
– inspiratory center
– Stimulates diaphragm and external
intercostals
– Expiratory center
– Active only during forced expiration
61
Chemical Control
• Chemical and physical influences
• Central chemoreceptors in medulla
• Peripheral chemoreceptors in carotid
artery, Aorta
– Measure CO2 in blood and CSF
• Stretch receptors in lung
62
Chemical Control
• Cortical influences
– Detect and report inflated condition of
lung
– Voluntary disruption of normal brain
stem regulation
