Part II Splanchnology Chapter 6 RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Ⅰ. General Description: * Constituents: 1. Respiratory tract: nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus, and its branches 2. Lungs 3. Pleura and plural cavity * Function: exchange O 2 and CO 2 mainly * (Mediastinum)
Ⅱ. Nose: 1. External nose— 2. Nasal cavity— limen nasi nasal vestibule proper nasal cavity • nasal septum • lateral wall of nasal cavity 3. Paranasal Sinuses— frontal sinus maxillary sinus sphenoidal sinus ethmoidal sinus
The formation of the nasal septum 2 Bones, The longitudinal plate of ethmoid bone The cartilage of nasal septum The vomer 1 Cartilage, Nasal mucous membrane: olfactory region respiratory region
Ⅱ. Nose: 1. Nasal cavity— nasal vestibule proper nasal cavity limen nasi • nasal septum • lateral wall of nasal cavity ---superior, middle and inferior nasal conchae ---superior, middle and inferior nasal meatuses ---the openings of the paranasal sinuses and the nasolacrimal duct 2. paranasal sinuses: frontal sinus maxillary sinus sphenoidal sinus ethmoidal sinus
The openings of the paranasal sinuses
Ⅲ. Larynx 1. Position: It is located at anterior part of neck, in front of 4~6 cervical vertebrae 2. Framework: It is formed by laryngeal cartilages and their articulations q Cartilages: thyroid cartilage cricoid cartilage epiglottic cartilage arytenoid cartilage (paired)

Epiglottic cartilage Anterior view posterior view
Articulation: 1. cricothyroid joint: rotate around the coronary axis 2. cricoarytenoid joints: rotate around the vertical axis 3. conus elasticus: free and thicked upper border formed the vocal ligament 4. quadrangular membrane: free lower border formed vestibular ligament 5. thyrohyoid membrane q 5 4 2 1 3

3. Laryngeal cavity laryngeal inlet vestibular fold vocal fold ventricle of larynx 3 parts: laryngeal vestibule intermediate cavity of larynx infraglottic cavity by 2 fissures— vestibular fissure of glottis
4. Laryngeal muscles: • Posterior cricoarytenoid: It can open the glottis • Transverse arytenoid, • Oblique arytenoid, • Lateral cricoarytenoid: They can close the glottis • Cricothyroid, • Posterior cricoarytenoid: They can lengthen and tense the vocal fold • Thyroarytenoid: It can relax and shorten the vocal fold

Ⅳ. The trachea and main bronchus: Bifurcation of trachea
