    MECHANISMS OF RESPIRATION
    Gas Exchange

    · Gas crosses the respiratory membrane


    by diffusion
    · Oxygen enters the blood
    · Carbon dioxide enters the alveoli
    · Macrophages add protection
    · Surfactant coats gas-exposed alveolar
    surfaces

    Mechanics of Breathing

    · Two phases
    · Inspiration – flow of air into lung
    · Expiration – air leaving lung
    Inspiration

    · Diaphragm and intercostal muscles


    contract
    · The size of the thoracic cavity increases
    · External air is pulled into the lungs due to
    an increase in intrapulmonary volume

    Exhalation

    · Largely a passive process which depends


    on natural lung elasticity
    · As muscles relax, air is pushed out of the
    lungs
    · Forced expiration can occur mostly by
    contracting internal intercostal muscles to
    depress the rib cage

    Events of Respiration
    · Pulmonary ventilation – moving air in and
    out of the lungs
    · External respiration – gas exchange
    between pulmonary blood and alveoli
    · Respiratory gas transport – transport of
    oxygen and carbon dioxide via the
    bloodstream
    · Internal respiration – gas exchange
    between blood and tissue cells in
    systemic capillaries
    External Respiration

    · Oxygen movement into the blood


    · The alveoli always has more oxygen than
    the blood
    · Oxygen moves by diffusion towards the
    area of lower concentration
    · Pulmonary capillary blood gains oxygen

    Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide


    External Respiration

    · Carbon dioxide movement out of the


    blood
    · Blood returning from tissues has higher
    concentrations of carbon dioxide than air in
    the alveoli
    · Pulmonary capillary blood gives up carbon
    dioxide
    · Blood leaving the lungs is oxygen-rich
    and carbon dioxide-poor

    Internal Respiration

    · Exchange of gases between blood and


    body cells
    · An opposite reaction to what occurs in
    the lungs
    · Carbon dioxide diffuses out of tissue to
    blood
    · Oxygen diffuses from blood into tissue
