Chapter 21, Problem 4SQ
Summary Introduction
Concept Introduction: The excess products, the breakdown products after food assimilation, the waste products in the body must be sent out to the exterior in the form of urine, feces, sweat, and gas. The organ systems involved in direct exchange of materials with the external environment are all parts of the larger excretory system. Several systems perform dual function, out of which one is excretion of unwanted products.

- __________ is a substance secreted by cells in the lungs that reduces surface tension.arrow_forwardMucous membranes (pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelia) line most upper respiratory tract structures. Although these membranes filter the air by trapping pathogens in mucus, they are very delicate. Pieces of food passing through the oropharynx and laryngopharynx could damage this type of epithelium. Predict which type of epithelium protects the lining of the oropharynx and laryngopharynx.arrow_forwardPleural membranes surround the lungs. These membranes serve as the glue between the lungs and the thoracic cavity. Which of the following statements is correct about these structures? The visceral pleura lines the outside of the lungs, the parietal pleura lines the thoracic cavity, and the intrapleural space seals the two layers together The parietal pleura lines the outside of the lungs, the visceral pleura lines the thoracic cavity, and the intrapleural space seals the two layers together The thoracic cavity and lungs are only connected by the visceral pleura The thoracic cavity and lungs are only connected by the parietal pleuraarrow_forward

From the image of the respiratory tract below: (1) indicate with arrows where those four tissue types may be found and name them next to the arrows in that section of the tract. (2) Briefly describe the functions of the four tissue types. In your answer you must include a unique structural feature of each tissue type that allows it to perform this function.
