1. pleural cavity
2. thoracic space
3. mediastinum
4. pericardial cavity

The volume of air that is available for gas exchange each minute is the
1. minute ventilation
2. anatomical dead air space
3. physiological dead air space
4. alveolar ventilation
The respiratory system does not:
1. allow oxygen from the air to enter the blood and carbon dioxide to leave the blood and enter the air.
2. alter the pH by changing oxygen levels.
3. provide protection against some microorganisms by preventing their entry into the body and by removing them from respiratory surfaces.
4. allow for speech and sound generation.
The dorsal respiratory group of the respiratory center in the brain stem stimulates:
| 1. external intercostals | 2. internal intercostals |
| 3. diaphragm | 4. rectus abdominus |
Condition of the body in which the tissues are starved of oxygen is called as:
| 1. apnea | 2. hypocapnia |
| 3. hypoxia | 4. hypercapnia |
Oxygenated blood through the tissues of the lungs is carried by:
1. pulmonary and bronchial veins
2. pulmonary and bronchial arteries
3. pulmonary veins and bronchial arteries
4. pulmonary arteries and bronchial veins
Air conditioning – warming, humidifying and filtering of the air, is the function performed by:
| 1. | oral cavity | 2. | nasal cavity |
| 3. | pharynx | 4. | larynx |
