Type 2 pneumocytes

Produces surfactant

Poorly developed organelles

Well developed organelles

Is called alveolar type 2 cell

Its typical feature are surface receptors

Its typical feature are lamellar bodies

Alveoli

Type 1 pneumocytes makes up 97% of the alveolar surface

Type 1 pneumocytes of epithelium produces surfactant

Type 2 pneumocytes of epithelium produce surfactant

Are separated by interalveolar septa

Are lined with squamous epithelium

Trachea

Its wall consists of mucosa, submucosa and adventitia

Mucosa consists of epithelium and lamina propria

Tracheal cartilages are elastic C

Tracheal cartilages are hyaline C

About 16-20 cartilage rings can be found in the wall of a human trachea

Lamina propria of mucosa is rich in mucous glands

Lamina propria of mucosa is rich in seromucous glands

Respiratory portion of respiratory system includes

Main (primary) bronchi

Respiratory bronchioles

Nasal cavity

Respiratory epithelium

Nasal cavities

Internal portion is called nasal fossae

External portion is called vestibule

Superior conchae is covered by olfactory epithelium

Middle and inferior conchae is covered by respiratory epithelium

In mucosa there are lamellar bodies

Inferior conchae is covered by olfactory epithelium

Nasal fossae communicates with paranasal sinuses through narrow openings

Clara cells

Are cells that belongs to typical ion-pumping cells

Are cells that apically posesses cilia

Are cuboidal in shape

Presents in respiratory bronchioles

The ventilation process happens because of

A presence of elastic fibers in the stroma of the lungs

Movement of cilia of respiratory epithelium

Contraction of intercostal muscle cells

Contraction of the diaphragm

What does NOT describe the terminal bronchioles

It is an element of the so-called conducting part of the respiratory system

It has a continuous; non-perforating wall

It is an element of the so-called respiratory part of the respiratory system

It passes into respiratory bronchioles

What epithelium lines the trachea

Transitional epithelium

Stratified squamous epithelium

Pseudostratified columnar epithelium; with goblet cells

The endothelium

Where are clara cells located

In the bronchiole epithelium

In the lumen of the alveolis

In the alveolar epithelium

In the epithelium of the olfactory membrane

Which sentences does NOT describe respiratory bronchioles

Its an element of the so called conducting part of the respiratory system

It has a perforated wall

It is an element of the so called respiratory part of the respiratory system

Their alveoli open to its lumen
