LC Anatomy & Physiology H
Introduction
IN: Explain what happens when there is an increase in vocal cord tension. Increase in vocal cord
tension raises pitch of voice.
Lesson Format: Handout respiratory notes to be completed together.
Assignment: Complete respiratory coloring, and chapter 15 vocab.
OUT: Is a hiccup a respiratory movement? Explain what it is. A hiccup is a non-respiratory
movement, it is a sudden inspiration due to a spasm of the diaphragm, and air striking the vocal
cords makes the sound.
Related Standards/Objectives:

7.13 - The student will relate the role of the larynx to respiration and speech. [L.12.B.2]

LC Anatomy & Physiology H
New Calendar Item
IN: Share something you learned form doing the web quest.
Lesson Format: Complete notes; watch a animation clip on the lungs in use.
Assignment: Read story on altitude changes and answer questions
OUT: Name the 3 steps involved with the process of respiration, briefly explain each. 1. Pulmonary
ventilation: or breathing, involves the physical movement of air into and out of the lungs. 2. Gas
exchange: involves gas diffusion at 2 sites: across the respiratory membrane between aveolar air
spaces and alveolar capillaries, and across capillary cell membranes between blood and tissue. 3.
Gas transport: involves the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from the alveolar
capillaries and the capillary beds in other tissues.
