This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: The Respiratory System Group 5, conduction structures nasal cavity, respiratory structures lungs, pleural cavity function filled with pleural fluid, external respiration affected by ventilation-perfusion coupling, conduction function warms air, pleural cavity location between the lungs and chest wall, Respiratory System zone respiratory, two main bronchi splits into brionchioles, provides the body with oxygen 4 processes internal respiration, lungs branches into two main bronchi, O2 & CO2 exchange between systemic capillaries & body tissue process CO2 leaves the tissues and enters the blood, pulmonary ventilation (breathing) types inspiration, pons medulla parts DRG, alveolar walls made of type II cells, conduction structures bronchi, maintains transpulmonary pressure always negative, pleural cavity function maintains transpulmonary pressure, DRG communicates info to VRG, O2 & CO2 exchange between blood and lungs process CO2 flows from alveoli to blood, brionchioles composed of alveoli
