tidal volume
volume of air inhaled and exhaled in a normal breath
vital capacity
the grand come of all the air that can enter and exit the lungs except residual volume
residual volume
gas that always remains in the lungs
- keeps the lungs from collapsing on themselves
gases (exchange)
diffuse from areas of high to low levels of partial pressure
ventilation
inhalation + exhalation
capillary
external respiration
red blood cells
oxyhemoglobin
internal respiration
CO2 disguising
medulla oblangata
carotid artery
uses chemoreceptors to deflect low O2
- slower than acid receptors
