Pressure ~ 1/volume 11/17/2016 http://www.chem.iastate.edu/group/Greenbowe/sections/projectfolder/flashfiles/gaslaw/boyles_law.html 2 We’ll use mmHg units to measure air pressure. Why is air pressure higher at sea level? 11/17/2016 3 Use this equation to explain how air moves in/out: Air Flow = (Palveoli - Patmosphere )/Resistance Increase volume decrease pres. 11/17/2016 Decrease volume increase pres. 4 Explain alveolar pressure & air flow changes in ventilation. (Palveoli -Patmosphere ) Air Flow = (Palveoli - Patmosphere )/Resistance Inhale 11/17/2016 Exhale http://droualb.faculty.mjc.edu/Course%20Materials/Physiology%20101/Chapt er%20Notes/Fall%202011/chapter_16%20Fall%202011.htm 5 Why do peak expiratory flow values differ between men & women and change with age? Air Flow ~ Pressure gradient * (radius4) How would asthma affect peak flow? 11/17/2016 http://www.admit-online.info/en/background-information-respiration/pathophysiology/lung-capacities/ 6 Vital capacity = TV + ERV + IRV. What does it mean? http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/303239-overview Dead Air Residual Volume TV = tidal volume ERV = expiratory reserve volume IRV = inspiratory reserve volume Tidal Volume Inspiratory Reserve Volume 11/17/2016 Expiratory Reserve Volume 7 Explain why vital capacity changes with aerobic exercise & age. Why does it differ between sexes? 11/17/2016 8 Which muscles aid ventilation? How would airway resistance alter the cost of breathing? Inhale = Inspire Sternocleidomastoids Scalenes Internal Intercostals External Intercostals Diaphragm Abdominals Exhale 11/17/2016 https://online.science.psu.edu/biol141_wc/node/7590 9 How does the depth of a breath alter the amount of fresh air entering lungs? 11/17/2016 http://droualb.faculty.mjc.edu/Course%20Materials/Physiology%20101/Ch apter%20Notes/Fall%202011/chapter_16%20Fall%202011.htm 10 Why can’t residual volume ever be exhaled? Respiratory Minute Volume (RMV)(L/min) = Respiratory Rate * Tidal Volume 11/17/2016 http://ptexphys.utorontoeit.com/respiratory-physiology/regulation-of-ventilation-during-exercise/ 11 How do respiration rate & “tidal volume” change with exercise? 11/17/2016 http://ptexphys.utorontoeit.com/respiratory-physiology/regulation-of-ventilation-during-exercise/ 12 Things to understand or review: 1. Describe how these factors affect air pressure: temperature, elevation & volume. Graph these relationships, with the factors on the X-axis & air pressure on the Y-axis. 2. Write the equation for air flow. Why is air flow called bulk flow? Does air flow “up” or “down” a pressure gradient? Why is the radius of an airway the most important factor controlling resistance to air flow? Graph the relationship between radius of an airway on the X-axis &”relative” air flow on the Y-axis. 3. Calculate the direction & relative volume of air flow if you are given Patmosphere & Palveoli. Explain why the flow of air stops at the end of inhalation or exhalation. Explain how you can take larger breaths. 4. What events/substances can dilate your airways? What can constrict your airways? Predict which part of the airways has the biggest effect on airflow. How does asthma alter peak flow? Explain how & why peak flow changes with age, sex or exercise? 5. Calculate vital capacity given information on the various lung volumes. Which volumes are used during exercise? Why isn’t residual volume every exhaled? How does does dead air volume (in the airways) affect the gases in the lungs? Explain how & why vital capacity varies with age, sex. Predict the effect of exercise on vital capacity. 6. Explain the changes in respiration rate & ventilation volumes with exercise. 11/17/2016 13 Why does increased airway resistance make it harder to breathe? Air Flow = (Patm - Palv)/Resistance 11/17/2016 14
