Which of the following is NOT a function of the respiratory system? a. regulate pH b. regulate body temperature c. gas exchange d. removal of waste e. transport RBC 3. Which of the following structure/function pairs do NOT go together? a. nose filter and warm air b. auditory tube- equalizes the pressure in the middle ear c. mouth moisten air d. meastus increase resonance e. larynx produce sounds 4. The space at the back of the mouth, that leads either to the airway or the esophagus is the: a. larynopharynx b. conchae c. nasal cavity d. oropharynx e. lingual tonsil 5. Theand larynx and nasal cavity, respectively are two structures that prevent objects from entering the a. soft plate and hard palate b. uvula and epiglottis c. epiglottis and adenoids d. epiglottis and uvula e. lingual tonsil and uvulaExplanation / Answer
1. c. be unable to speak
2. e. transport RBCs
3. d. meastut = increase resonance
In the respiratory system, meatus separates superior, middle and inferior air passages located inferior to their corresponding nasal conchae. However, in hearing physiology, external auditory meatus amplifies the sounds in its resonant range (2-4kHz) and protects the middle ear.
4. d. oropharynx
5. d. epiglottis and uvula
