Respiratory Physiology Part 3

Part three of a three part video discussing the physiology of respiration. The ultimate goal of respiration is to transport oxygen to the mitochondria of the cells. This involves getting oxygen into the lungs (ventilation), getting the oxygen into the blood (external respiration), transporting the oxygen through the blood (transport), moving the oxygen out of the blood into the tissue (internal respiration) and then using the oxygen to make the body's energy molecule, ATP (cellular respiration). Each step is discussed as well as some underlying principles. Lastly, the a brief introduction to how respiratory pathologies can be viewed by understanding the underlying steps is discussed.

@TheElectricLoveBand Click on show more to find the link. Sorry, I really should put a head's up annotation in the video. Live well, dj

Thanks man !

Are you willing to share your powerpoint presentation?

[borboleta11ly]

actually i think that the more difficult part of the respiratory physiology is the pulmonar surfacante!! i mean i'm already know that it's main function is increase the pulmonary compliance ,,,,but HOW!!!

Thank you! Physio final is in a week abs a half and you summed up about 40 power point slides with this sheet. Thanks again!

thank you!

i think ur talking about bohr effect instea of haldane.. regardless of that.. ur presentation is really good.. ty..it helped me

@eduffles thats exactly the same way i felt. guyton takes forever and is so redundant that i just wanted to hear someone quickly walk me through everything to get my mind cleared. thanks so much for the video....hopefully it'll help save my ass for my physio final tomorrow!! :)

Another thing I would like to point out is that carbonic acid is considered extremely unstabe and therefore just a hypothetical state. We can only talk about dissolved CO2 in water. So saying these are two different species might not be appropriate.
