Neural output from the brain stem regulated breathing including respiratory rate and depth. In a patient with damage to the medulla oblongata and subsequently to the phrenic nerve, which of the following would be true? a. the diaphragm may not be able to contract, resulting in respiratory arrest b. the respiratory rate and depth would increase as signals from the pons would increase c. the diaphragm will begin to contract on its own via autorhythmic cells
Watch this animation (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/swallowing) to see how swallowing is a complex process that involves the nervous system to coordinate the actions of upper respiratory and digestive activities. During which stage of swallowing is there a risk of food entering respiratory pathways and how is this risk blocked?
The medulla oblongata ___________. a. produces hemoglobin c. regulates breathing rate b. is in the forebrain d. detects carbon monoxide
In heroin OD patient, what is the significance of a depressed respiratory effort? the respiratory depression is due to the drugs effect on the cerebral cortex, the respiratory depression due to the brains decreased responsiveness to PCO2, the respiratory depression due to the brains increased responsiveness to PCO2, the respiratory depression is due to the depression on the 10th cranial nerve which slows the HR.
blood ph varies between 7.35 and 7.45, with a target value of 7.4. if someone's blood ph begins to decrease, chemoreceptors detect this change and send the information to the brain the brain analyzes the input and sends out a command to the respiratory muscles causing breathing rate to increases, which reduces carbon dioxide levels and thereby increases the ph of ther blood. name the body part, values, or actions in this specific scenario involving ph Normal range Set point Stimulus Sensor integrsting center Effector Response

The nature of the sounds produced by percussion (tapping) of a patient’s chest can tell a physician a great deal about the condition of the organs within the thoracic cavity. Healthy, air-filled lungsresonate, or sound hollow. How do you think the lungs of a person with emphysema would sound in comparison to healthy lungs? What kind of sounds would be produced by a collapsed lung, or one thatwas partially filled with fluid?
