Respiratory Physiology Crossword
Across
6. The law that states that the total pressure (P) of a gas mixture is the sum of the pressures (Px + Py) exerted by the independent gases
7. also called pH shift
14. Volume of air that can be forcibly expired (out) beyond the tidal volume.
20. Declining pH (increase acid H+) results in the increase of O2 unloading
24. Movement of air into and out of the lungs. (breathing)
Down
1. Volume of air that can be forcibly inspired (in) beyond the tidal volume
2. Also known as the law of partial pressure
3. Volume of air inhaled & exhaled in one breath at rest.
4. A change in volume causes a change pressure results in the flow of gases
5. graph that measures Hb affinity to O2
8. As more CO2 enters the blood it causes more O2 to be removed from the hemoglobin
9. inspired air that fills the conducting system and is not involved in gas exchange
10. also known as the law of gas solubility
11. Gas exchange between the tissues and the blood
12. the exchange or diffusion of blood gasses down a partial pressure gradient
13. Hb
15. Capacity = Expiratory Reserve Volume + Inspiratory Reserve Volume + Tidal Volume
16. Capacity = Inspiratory Reserve Volume + Tidal Volume
17. Volume of the air still remaining in the lungs after forced expiration.
18. Law that states when a mixture of gases is in contact with a liquid each gas will dissolve in the proportion to its partial pressure
19. Capacity = Expiratory Reserve Volume + Inspiratory Reserve Volume
21. HbO2
22. Capacity= Expiratory Reserve Volume + Residual Volume
23. Gas exchange between the blood and the air filled chambers
