The Respiratory System > Systems of Gas Exchange
Introduction and Direct Diffusion
• Respiration ensures that cells, tissues, and major organs of the body receive an adequate supply of oxygen and that the carbon dioxide, a waste product, is efficiently removed; the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs via diffusion across cell membranes.
• The mechanisms, processes, and structures used for respiration are dictated by the type, size, and complexity of the organism.
• Direct diffusion of gases through the outer membranes can be used by organisms such as flatworms as a means of respiration due to their small size and simplicity.

Skin and Gills and Tracheal Systems
• Some animals, such as amphibians and earthworms, can use their skin (integument) to exchange gases between the external environment and the circulatory system due to the network of capillaries that lie below the skin.
• Fish and other aquatic organisms use gills to take up oxygen dissolved in the water and diffuse carbon dioxide out of the bloodstream.
• Some insects utilize a tracheal system that transports oxygen from the external environment through openings called spiracles.

The Respiratory System > Systems of Gas Exchange
Mammalian Systems and Protective Mechanisms
• The air that moves from the external environment into the body must pass through the nasal cavity where it is warmed, humidified, and surveyed for particulates.
• As air moves out of the nasal cavity, it moves into the pharynx, larynx, trachea, the primary bronchi (right and left lung), secondary and tertiary bronchi, bronchioles, terminal then respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts then alveolar sacs where gas exchange occurs with the capillaries.
• Components in the respiratory system allow for protection from foreign material; these include mucus production in the lungs and cilia in the bronchi and bronchioles to move matter out of the system.

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Basic Principles of Gas Exchange
• Gas is exchanged between the alveoli and the pulmonary capillaries via diffusion: gas molecules will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
• The partial pressure of oxygen (PO 2 ) is lower in the alveoli in comparison to the external environment, which allows for diffusion of oxygen into the alveoli.
• The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO 2 ) is higher in the capillaries than in the alveoli, which allows for diffusion into the alveoli where it is exhaled during expiration.
• The ventilation/perfusion ratio (V/Q) ensures that the ideal amount of blood and gas is received by the alveoli for efficient gas exchange.

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Lung Volumes and Capacities
• The lung volumes that can be measured using a spirometer include tidal volume (TV), expiratory reserve volume (ERV), and inspiratory reserve volume (IRV).
• Residual volume (RV) is a lung volume representing the amount of air left in the lungs after a forced exhalation; this volume cannot be measured, only calculated.
• The lung capacities that can be calculated include vital capacity (ERV+TV+IRV), inspiratory capacity (TV+IRV), functional residual capacity (ERV+RV), and total lung capacity (RV+ERV+TV+IRV).

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Gas Pressure and Respiration
• Atmospheric pressure is the sum of all the partial pressures of the gases in the atmosphere, including oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor.
• In the atmosphere, the partial pressure of oxygen is much greater than the partial pressure of carbon dioxide.
• The partial pressure of oxygen in the atmosphere is much greater in comparison to the lungs, creating a pressure gradient; this allows oxygen to flow from the atmosphere into the lungs during inhalation.

The Respiratory System > Gas Exchange across Respiratory Surfaces
Gas Exchange across the Alveoli
• The change in partial pressure from the alveoli (high concentration) to the capillaries (low concentration) drives the oxygen into the tissue and the carbon dioxide into the blood (high concentration) from the tissues (low concentration), which is then returned to the lungs and exhaled.
• Once in the blood of the capillaries, the O 2 binds to the hemoglobin in red blood cells which carry it to the tissues where it dissociates to enter the cells of the tissues.
• The lungs never fully deflate, so air that is inhaled mixes with the residual air left from the previous respiration, resulting in a lower partial pressure of oxygen within the alveoli.

The Respiratory System > Breathing
Types of Breathing
• Eupnea is normal quiet breathing that requires contraction of the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles.
• Diaphragmatic breathing requires contraction of the diaphragm and is also called deep breathing.
• Costal breathing requires contraction of the intercostal muscles and is also called shallow breathing.
• Hyperpnea is forced breathing and requires muscle contractions during both inspiration and expiration such as contraction of the diaphragm, intercostal muscles, and accessory muscles.
• Amphibians utilize gills for breathing early in life and later develop primitive lungs in their adult life; additionally, they are able to breathe through their skin.
• Birds have evolved a directional respiratory system that allows them to obtain oxygen at high altitudes: air flows in one direction while blood flows in another, allowing efficient gas exchange.

The Respiratory System > Breathing
The Mechanics of Human Breathing
• The mechanics of breathing follow Boyle's Law which states that pressure and volume have an inverse relationship.
• The process of inhalation occurs due to an increase in the lung volume (diaphragm contraction and chest wall expansion) which results in a decrease in lung pressure in comparison to the atmosphere; thus, air rushes in the airway.
• The process of exhalation occurs due to an elastic recoil of the lung tissue which causes a decrease in volume, resulting in increased pressure in comparison to the atmosphere; thus, air rushes out of the airway.
• There is no contraction of muscles during exhalation; it is considered a passive process.
• The lung is protected by layers of tissue referred to as the visceral pleura and parietal pleura; the intrapleural space contains a small amount of fluid that protects the tissue by reducing friction.

The Respiratory System > Breathing
The Work of Breathing
• Both flow-resistive and elastic work are conducted during the act of respiration; flow-resistive work involves the alveoli and tissues, while elastic work involves the intercostal muscles, chest wall, and diaphragm.
• These types of work function in an inverse relationship; for example, increasing the rate of respiration results in an increase in the flow-resistive work and a decrease in the elastic work.
• Surfactant is a phospholipid and lipoprotein substance produced in the lungs that functions similarly to a detergent: it reduces the surface tension between alveoli tissue and air within the alveoli, thereby reducing the work needed for airway inflation.
• Lung resistance plays a key role in the ability to efficiently exchange gases; if there is obstruction (resistance) within the airways, the result will be decreased gas exchange.
• Lung compliance plays a key role in the ability to efficiently exchange gases; if there is too much of an increase or decrease in elasticity of the lung, the result will be disruption of gas exchange, which will cause obstructive or restrictive diseases.

The Respiratory System > Breathing
Dead Space: V/Q Mismatch
• At times, there is a mismatch between the amount of air (ventilation, V) and the amount of blood (perfusion, Q) in the lungs, referred to as ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatch.
• The two major types of V/Q mismatch that result in dead space include: anatomical dead space (caused by an anatomical issue) and physiological dead space (caused by a functional issue with the lung or arteries).
• Anatomical dead space can occur due to changes in gravity (i.e. posture positions: sitting, standing, lying); it will affect both ventilation (V) and perfusion (Q).
• Physiological dead space can occur due to changes in function, such as in cases of infection of the lung; it will typically affect ventilation if the infection is in the lung and will affect perfusion if the functional impairment is in the arteries.
• In a normal, healthy individual, changes in either ventilation or perfusion will result in correction of the other factor to ensure an appropriate V/Q ratio.

The Respiratory System > Transport of Gases in Human Bodily Fluids
Transport of Oxygen in the Blood
• Hemoglobin is made up of four subunits and can bind up to four oxygen molecules.
• Carbon dioxide levels, blood pH, body temperature, environmental factors, and diseases can all affect oxygen's carrying capacity and delivery.
• A decrease in the oxygen-carrying ability of hemoglobin is observed with an increase in carbon dioxide and temperature, as well as a decrease in pH within the body.
• Sickle cell anemia and thalassemia are two hereditary diseases that decrease the blood's oxygen-carrying capacity.

The Respiratory System > Transport of Gases in Human Bodily Fluids
Transport of Carbon Dioxide in the Blood
• Carbon dioxide is more soluble in blood than is oxygen; about 5 to 7 percent of all carbon dioxide is dissolved in the plasma.
• Carbon dioxide has the ability to attach to hemoglobin molecules; it will be removed from the body once they become dissociated from one another.
• In the bicarbonate buffer system, the most common form of carbon dioxide transportation in the blood, carbon dioxide is finally expelled from the body through the lungs during exhalation.
• Importantly, the bicarbonate buffer system allows little change to the pH of the body system; it allows for people to travel and live at high altitudes because the system can adjust itself to regulate carbon dioxide while maintaining the correct pH in the body.
