1.21: Anatomy and Histology of the Respiratory Tract (ft. Saud)
Description
Norm, Terence and Shaun are joined by Saud as they work their way through the anatomy of the respiratory passageway and some of the mechanics of breathing. From the nose, through the conductive tubes and to areas of gas exchange, the lads talk about the key structures and what comprise them.
Content covered:
- Nasal conchae and the paranasal sinuses
- How air travels down the respiratory tract (and how food doesn't, hopefully)
- Histological differences between conductive and respiratory structures
- Innervation of the pleura and lungs
- Ribs, the sternum and the sternocostal joints
- Mechanics of breathing including the use of accessory muscles
