Label the alveoli

Explanation

Question 3 of 13

1

Match the definition up with the area of the lungs
A pair of lobed structures made up of highly branched tubules called bronchioles which end in tiny air sacs called alveoli.

Select one of the following:

Lungs
Trachea
Bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveoli

Explanation

Question 4 of 13

1

Match the definition with the structure
A flexible airway that is supported by rings of cartilage preventing them from collapsing. They are lined with ciliated epithelium and goblet cells.

Select one of the following:

Lungs
Trachea
Bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveoli

Explanation

Question 5 of 13

1

Match the definition with the structure
Produces mucus to trap dirt particles and have cilia to move dirt

Select one of the following:

Lungs
Trachea
Bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveoli

Explanation

Question 6 of 13

1

Match the definition with the structure
Branching subdivision that is lined with epithelial cells. Muscles allow them to constrict the flow of air into the alveoli

Select one of the following:

Lungs
Trachea
Bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveoli

Explanation

Question 7 of 13

1

Match the definition with the structure
Minute air sacs at the end of the bronchioles that are lined with epithelium, collagen and elastic fibres allowing them to stretch during inhalation.

Select one of the following:

Lungs
Trachea
Bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveoli

Question 8 of 13

1

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

Inspiration

1. The intercostal muscles while the intercostal muscles relax
2. The ribs are pulled and , increasing the volume in the
3. The diaphragm muscles contract causing it to , increasing the volume in the thorax
4. The increased thorax volume leads to a reduction of in the lungs
5. The pressure is greater than the pressure so air is forced into the lungs

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

Exhalation

1. The muscles while the intercostal muscles
2. The ribs move and , decreasing the volume of the
3. The diaphragm muscles relax causing it to be this further decreases the volume in the thorax
4. The decreased volume of the thorax the pressure in the lungs
5. The pressure is greater than the pressure so air is forced out

Explanation

Question 10 of 13

1

Diffusion between the alveoli and the blood is rapid because red blood cells are slowed as they pass through the pulmonary capillaries

Select one of the following:

True
False

Explanation

Question 11 of 13

1

Diffusion between the alveoli and the blood is rapid because the distance between the alveolar air and red blood cells is increased

Select one of the following:

True
False

Explanation

Question 12 of 13

1

Diffusion between the alveoli and the blood is rapid because the walls of the alveoli and capillaries are very thin so the diffusion pathway is short.

Select one of the following:

True
False

Explanation

Question 13 of 13

1

Diffusion between the alveoli and the blood is rapid because the alveoli and pulmonary capillaries have a small surface area.

Select one of the following:

True
False
