During inspiration, air would pass the given structures in which order?Pharynx --> trachea --> terminal bronchiole --> secondary bronchusTrachea --> tertiary bronchus --> respiratory bronchiole --> terminal bronchiole --> alveolar ductTrachea --> primary bronchus --> terminal bronchiole --> respiratory bronchiole --> alveolar ductAlveoli --> alveolar duct --> respiratory bronchiole --> terminal bronchiole --> tertiary bronchus --> primary bronchus --> trachea

How would you describe mechanical-coupling between the visceral and parietal layers of the pleural membrane?Allows the lungs to expand as the thoracic cavity expandsAllows the lungs to expand as the thoracic cavity shrinksDecreases lubrication between the layers

What type of neurons will communicate with the diaphragm (via secretion) to cause contraction?somatic sensoryvisceral sensoryvisceral motorsomatic motor

How many layers of cells do capillaries have?123variable

Comparing the structure of a primary bronchus to a bronchiole, do you expect to find more or less smooth muscle in the bronchiole?morelessno difference, both have the same amount

After entering through the nasal or oral cavity, where will air travel next?LarynxTracheaPharynxEsophagus

Given that the function of the conducting and respiratory zones differ, do you expect to find cilia in the respiratory zone?YesNo

The pharynx is unique structure of the respiratory tract because it is a shared space for air and ingested food. How does this function affect the epithelial layer of the pharynx?The cells become stratified to protect against friction.The cells become a single layer to help with transport.The cells become fenestrated to help with transport.There is not mucous produced by the cells in the pharynx.
