Divisions of the Respiratory System
Lower respiratory
tract (within
thorax)
Trachea
Bronchial Tree
Lungs
Structures of the Lower Respiratory Tract
(Plural – bronchi) Bronchioles
Respiratory Physiology
A. Diaphragm contracts
B. Intercostals relax
C. Diaphragm flattens
D. Size of thorax increases
Air is forced into the lungs by the
contraction of the…
A. Alveoli
B. Bronchioles
C. Diaphragm
D. Heart
2. Heart Anatomy
Coverings of the Heart:
Anatomy
• Pericardium – a double-walled sac
around the heart composed of:
1. A superficial fibrous pericardium
2. A deep two-layer serous pericardium
a. The parietal layer lines the internal surface of
the fibrous pericardium
b. The visceral layer or epicardium lines the
surface of the heart
• They are separated by the fluid-filled pericardial
cavity
Coverings of the Heart:
Physiology
• The Function of the Pericardium:
– Protects and anchors the heart
– Prevents overfilling of the heart with blood
– Allows for the heart to work in a relatively
friction-free environment

Coronary Circulation: Venous Supply
Neurons : microscopic
nerve cells that
make up the brain,
spinal cord, and
nerves
Anatomy of a Neuron
Each neuron contains:
- Cell body with
nucleus
- Dendrites : fibers
that receive
messages from
other neurons
- Axons : fibers that
send messages to
other neurons
• Neurons do NOT
touch; there is a gap
between them called
a synapse
There is enough
electrical current in
the brain to power a
flashlight
Two Major Divisions
of the Nervous
System
Central Nervous System
Brain : a mass of 100
billion neurons
located inside the
skull
-Learning occurs as
more and stronger
connections are
made between
neurons
Anatomy of the Brain
Cerebrum : largest part
of human brain
- Responsible for:
- Thought
- Language
- Senses
- Memory
- Voluntary
movement
Anatomy of the Brain
Cerebellum : at base
of brain
-Responsible for:
- Muscle
coordination
- Balance
- Posture
Anatomy of the Brain
Brain Stem : connects
brain to spinal cord
-Responsible for:
- Breathing
- Swallowing
- Heartbeat
- Blood pressure
Central Nervous System
Spinal Cord : Column
of nerves from brain
to tailbone –
protected by
vertebrae of spine
- Responsible for:
- Conducting
impulses between
the brain and the
rest of the body
Peripheral Nervous System
Nerves : visible
bundles of axons and
dendrites that entend
from the brain and
spinal cord to all other
parts of the body
-Responsibilities:
- Sensory nerves -
carry messages
from body to brain
(pain, pressure,
temperature)
- Motor nerves –
carry messages
from brain to body to
respond
