Question
Chapter 21.1, Problem 1CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The structures that are present from the nose to the larynx.
Introduction:
There are four processes involved in respiration, namely, pulmonary ventilation, external respiration, transport of respiratory gas, and internal respiration. The respiratory system is responsible for supplying oxygen to the body and disposing the carbon dioxide produced. The upper respiratory system consists of structures starting from the nose to the larynx.

Air moving from the nose to the larynx passes by a number of structures. List (in order) as many of these structures as you can.
You need to examine the internal anatomy of both lungs at the same time but can make only one cut. Which plane orplanes of section would allow you to do this?
The flow rule states that (substances) gases or liquids flow from a region of higher pressure to a region of lower pressure. This can be applied to any section of the respiratory tract. Use this information to explain why the Heimlich maneuver (a sharp compression of the abdominal cavity just below the diaphragm) can dislodge food or other objects lodged in the trachea of a choking person.
