ORGANS OF THE
RESPIRATORY
SYSTEM
System
The entire process of gas exchange in the body,
called respiration, occurs in three basic steps:
1. Pulmonary ventilation
2. External respiration
3. Internal respiration
Nose
Internal
External
Functions
Air enters the nostrils it passes coarse hairs that trap large dust particles
Air then flows over three bones called the superior, middle, and inferior nasal
conchae or turbinates
Mucous membrane lines the nasal cavity and the three conchae
Olfactory receptors lie in the membrane lining the superior nasal conchae and
adjacent septum. This region is called the olfactory epithelium
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelial cells and goblet cells line the nasal cavity
Mucus secreted by goblet cells moistens the air and traps dust particles
Pharynx
It lies just posterior to the nasal/oral cavities and just anterior to the
cervical (neck) vertebrae
Pharynx
Nasopharynx (upper part) connects with the two internal nares and has two
openings that lead into the auditory (eustachian) tubes.
Nasopharynx exchanges air with the nasal cavities and receives mucusdust
packages.
Nasopharynx also exchanges small amounts of air with the auditory tubes to equalize
air pressure between the pharynx and middle ear
Two pairs of tonsils, the palatine tonsils and lingual tonsils, are found in the oropharynx.
Laryngopharynx (lower portion) connects with both the esophagus and the
larynx (voice box)
Thus, the oropharynx and laryngopharynx both serve as passageways for air as well as
for food and drink
Larynx
Larynx
Short tube of cartilage lined by mucous membrane that connects the pharynx with the trachea
It lies in the midline of the neck anterior to the fourth, fifth, and sixth cervical vertebrae (C4 to C6)
Thyroid cartilage, which consists of hyaline cartilage, forms the anterior wall of the larynx
(Adams apple)
Epiglottis is a large, leaf-shaped piece of elastic cartilage that is covered with epithelium
and attached to the anterior rim of the thyroid cartilage and hyoid bone
Superior leaf portion of the epiglottis is unattached and is free to move up and down like a trap door
Elevation of the pharynx widens it to receive food or drink; elevation of the larynx causes
the epiglottis to move down and form a lid over the larynx, closing it off (if not you cough)
The cricoid cartilage is a ring of hyaline cartilage that forms the inferior wall of the larynx
and is attached to the first tracheal cartilage
They attach to the true vocal cords and pharyngeal muscles and function in voice
production
Trachea
The trachea (windpipe) is a tubular passageway for air that is located anterior to the
esophagus
Extends from the larynx to the upper part of the fifth thoracic vertebra (T5), where it
divides into right and left primary bronchi
The wall of the trachea is lined with mucous membrane and is supported by cartilage
The mucous membrane provides the same protection against dust as the membrane
lining the nasal cavity and larynx
The cilia in the upper respiratory tract move mucus and trapped particles down toward the
pharynx, but the cilia in the lower respiratory tract move mucus and trapped particles up
toward the pharynx
Cartilage layer consists of 16 to 20 C-shaped rings of hyaline cartilage stacked one on top
of another
The open part of each C-shaped cartilage ring faces the esophagus and permits it to
expand slightly into the trachea during swallowing
The solid parts of the C-shaped cartilage rings provide a rigid support sot he tracheal wall
does not collapse inward and obstruct the air passageway
The rings of cartilage may be felt under the skin below the larynx.
