attaches lungs to diaphragm, inner layerattaches lungs to diaphragm, inner layer
visceral pleura, pleural cavity contains avisceral pleura, pleural cavity contains a
lubricating fluid, contains alveolilubricating fluid, contains alveoli

9. InhalationInhalation
• At rest (no breathing): pressure insideAt rest (no breathing): pressure inside
lungs and out equallungs and out equal
• Inhalation:Inhalation:
– Diaphragm contracts and dropsDiaphragm contracts and drops
– Volume of thoracic cavity increasesVolume of thoracic cavity increases
– Pressure inside lungs less than outsidePressure inside lungs less than outside
– Air rushes in and lungs expand/inflateAir rushes in and lungs expand/inflate

10. ExhalationExhalation
• Exhalation:Exhalation:
– Diaphragm relaxes and moves upDiaphragm relaxes and moves up
– Volume of thoracic cavity decreasesVolume of thoracic cavity decreases
– Pressure inside lungs greater thanPressure inside lungs greater than
outsideoutside
– Air rushes out and lungs deflateAir rushes out and lungs deflate

15. Gas ExchangeGas Exchange
• AlveoliAlveoli
– Surfactant is fluid that lubricates and preventsSurfactant is fluid that lubricates and prevents
collapse of sacscollapse of sacs
– OO22 and COand CO22 exchange between alveolar wallsexchange between alveolar walls
and capillary walls by diffusionand capillary walls by diffusion

16. External respirationExternal respiration
– Diffusion of ODiffusion of O22 from air in alveoli to pulmonaryfrom air in alveoli to pulmonary
capillaries and COcapillaries and CO22 from capillaries to alveolifrom capillaries to alveoli
– PPO2O2 in alveoli < air, Pin alveoli < air, PCO2CO2 in alveoli > airin alveoli > air
– Travels to heart then to bodyTravels to heart then to body

17. Internal respirationInternal respiration
– Diffusion of ODiffusion of O22 from capillaries in to tissuefrom capillaries in to tissue
cells and COcells and CO22 from tissue cells to capillariesfrom tissue cells to capillaries
– PPO2O2 in cells < capillaries, Pin cells < capillaries, PCO2CO2 in cells >in cells >
