19.1: Introduction • The respiratory system consists of passages that filter incoming air and transport it into the body, into the lungs, and to the many microscopic air sacs where gases are exchanged • Respiration is the process of exchanging gases between the atmosphere and body cells • It consists of the following events: • Ventilation • External respiration • Transport of gases • Internal respiration • Cellular respiration 4
19.2: Why We Breathe • Respiration occurs on a macroscopic level at the organ system • Gas exchange, oxygen and carbon dioxide, occur at the cellular and molecular levels • Aerobic reactions of cellular respiration allow for: • ATP production • Carbon dioxide generation forming carbonic acid

19.3: Organs of the Respiratory System Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
• The organs of the respiratory system can be divided into two tracts: • Upper respiratory tract • The nose • Nasal cavity • Sinuses • Pharynx • Lower respiratory tract • Larynx • Trachea • Bronchial tree • Lungs

The Respiratory Tubes • The structure of the bronchus is similar to that of the trachea, but the C-shaped cartilaginous rings are replaced with cartilaginous plates where the bronchus enters the lung • These respiratory tubes become thinner and thinner, and the cell layers thin and change until the alveoli is reached • It is the alveoli that provides surface area for gas exchange

19.4: Breathing Mechanism • Breathing or ventilation is the movement of air from outside of the body into the bronchial tree and the alveoli • The actions responsible for these air movements are inspiration, or inhalation, and expiration, or exhalation
23
Inspiration • Atmospheric pressure due to the weight of the air is the force that moves air into the lungs • At sea level, atmospheric pressure is 760 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) • Moving the plunger of a syringe causes air to move in or out • Air movements in and out of the lungs occur in much the same way

(b)
Inspiration • Intra-alveolar pressure decreases to about 758mm Hg as the thoracic cavity enlarges due to diaphragm downward movement caused by impulses carried by the phrenic nerves • Atmospheric pressure then forces air into the airways Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

Expiration • The forces responsible for normal resting expiration come from elastic recoil of lung tissues and from surface tension • These factors increase the intra-alveolar pressure about 1 mm Hg above atmospheric pressure forcing air out of the lungs

Respiratory Air Volumes and Capacities • Different degrees of effort in breathing move different volumes of air in and out of the lungs • This measurement of volumes is called spirometry Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.

32
Alveolar Ventilation • The volume of new atmospheric air moved into the respiratory passages each minute is minute ventilation • It equals the tidal volume multiplied by the breathing rate • Much of the new air remains in the physiologic dead space • The tidal volume minus the physiologic dead space then multiplied by breathing rate is the alveolar ventilation rate • This is the volume of air that reaches the alveoli • This impacts the concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli
33
Nonrespiratory Air Movements • Air movements other than breathing are called nonrespiratory movements • They clear air passages, as in coughing and sneezing, or express emotions, as in laughing and crying

19.5: Control of Breathing • Normal breathing is a rhythmic, involuntary act that continues when a person is unconscious • Respiratory muscles can be controlled as well voluntarily
37
Respiratory Areas Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
• Groups of neurons in the brainstem comprise the respiratory areas that control breathing • Impulses travel on cranial nerves and spinal nerves, causing inspiration and expiration • Respiratory areas also adjust the rate and depth of breathing • The respiratory areas include: • Respiratory center of the medulla • Respiratory group of the
Midbrain Fourth ventricle Pontine respiratory group Pons Medulla oblongata Ventral respiratory group Dorsal respiratory group

Factors Affecting Breathing • A number of factors affect breathing rate and depth including: • Partial pressure of oxygen (Po2) • Partial pressure of carbon dioxide (Pco2) • Degree of stretch of lung tissue • Emotional state • Level of physical activity • Receptors involved include mechanoreceptors and central

Factors Affecting Breathing • Changes in blood pH, O2 and CO2 concentration stimulates chemoreceptors Sensory pathway • Motor impulses can travel Vagus nerve from the respiratory center to the diaphragm and external Phrenic nerve intercostal muscles Stretch receptors • Contraction of these muscles Lung causes the lungs to expand stimulating mechanoreceptors in the lungs • Inhibitory impulses from the mechanoreceptors back to the respiratory center prevent

Respiratory Membrane • Part of the wall of an alveolus is made up of cells (type II cells) that secrete pulmonary surfactant • The bulk of the wall of an alveolus consists of a layer of simple squamous epithelium (type I cells) • Both of these layers make up the respiratory membrane through which gas exchange takes place

Diffusion Through the Respiratory Membrane • Molecules diffuse from regions where they are in higher concentration toward regions where they are in lower concentration • It is important to know the concentration gradient • In respiration, think in terms of gas partial pressures • Gases diffuse from areas of higher partial pressure to areas of lower partial pressure • The respiratory membrane is normally thin and gas exchange is rapid • Increased diffusion is favored with more surface area, shorter distance, greater solubility of gases and a steeper partial pressure gradient • Decreased diffusion occurs from decreased surface area 50

19.6 Clinical Application Disorders That Impair Gas Exchange: Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, and Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome
52
19.7: Gas Transport • Blood transports O2 and CO2 between the lungs and the body cells • As the gases enter the blood, they dissolve in the plasma or chemically combine with other atoms or molecules
53
Oxygen Transport • Almost all oxygen carried in the blood is bound to the protein hemoglobin in the form of oxyhemoglobin • Chemical bonds between O2 and hemoglobin are relatively unstable • Oxyhemoglobin releases O2 into the body cells • About 75% of the O2 remains bound to hemoglobin in the venous blood ensuring safe CO2 levels and thereby pH

Carbon Dioxide Transport • Blood flowing through capillaries gains CO2 because the tissues have a high Pco2 • The CO2 is transported to the lungs in one of three forms: • As CO2 dissolved in plasma • As part of a compound with hemoglobin • As part of a bicarbonate ion

19.8: Lifespan Changes • Lifespan changes reflect an accumulation of environmental influences and the effects of aging in other organ systems, and may include: • The cilia become less active • Mucous thickening • Swallowing, gagging, and coughing reflexes slowing • Macrophages in the lungs lose efficiency • An increased susceptibility to respiratory infections • A “barrel chest” may develop • Bronchial walls thin and collapse • Dead space increasing 63
