The Respiratory System!
U of Mich Med site
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
The function of the respiratory system is to provide O2 and to remove CO2 from the blood
Segments
Conducting Portion consisting of the nasal cavity, larynx, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles
Transitional Portion formed by the respiratory bronchioles
Respiratory Portion formed by the alveolar duct, alveolar sac and the lung alveoli
Function
Maintain an open passageway for air passage, condition air headed for lungs (by increasing
humidity and temperature)
Combination of conducting and respiratory functions: Keep airways open for easy air
passage, condition air headed for lungs (by increasing humidity and temperature)
and start of gas exchange.
Exchange of O2 and CO2 between air and blood
Features
Presence of cartilage and smooth muscle cells in airways
Presence of smooth muscle cells, but NO cartilage
No cartilage or smooth muscle cells, presence of alveolar sacs.

Triplets
The stable MTs in the cilium
are arranged in a
characteristic pattern of nine
outer doublet MTs – A and B.
One MT (A) in each doublet is
complete while the other (B)
contains only 11
protofilaments. They are
fused and share a common
wall.
Composed of 9 sets of
triplet MTs. Each MT triplet
contains one complete MT
(A tubule) and 2 attached
incomplete MTs (B & C
tubules) which share walls
with the adjacent MTs.
Other proteins from crosslink between these triplet
Protein Linker
MTs
Ciliary movement the axoneme is mediated by axonemal and ciliary dynein.
The tail region of the dynein attaches to the A tubule while the head region
with the motor interacts with the B tubule of the adjacent doublet.
