anatomy module 4

• 1. The respiratory epithelium of the conducting airways consists of pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium.  
• the larynx contains 9 cartilages
• the vocal folds are located within the larynx
• the elastic cartilage that covers the opening to the larynx during swallowing is the epiglottis
• the largest cartilage of the larynx is the cricoid cartilage
• the airway that connects the larynx to the bronchial tree is the trachea
• the primary bronchi branch from the trachea at the carina
• the following is a list of some airways. put the airways listed below in the order of which the air passes through primary bronchus, bronchioles, terminal bronchioles, respiratory bronchiole, alveolar duct, alveoli
• the actual sites of gas exchange within the lungs are called alveoli
• the respiratory membrane of the gas exchange surfaces consists of simple squamous epithelium
• the right lung is to three lobes as the left lung is to two lobes
• the obstructive lung disease in which elastic fibers are lost, ;eading to collapse of alveoli and bronchioles, is called emphysema
• the pancreas is considered an accessory digestive organ
• From the esophagus to the anal canal, the walls of every organ of the alimentary canal are made up of the same four basic layers. Arrange them in order from the lumen. mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, and serosa
• The salivary glands include the parotid, submandibular, and subesophageal glands
• Which of the following is true concerning the number and type of permanent teeth? There are 32 permanent teeth, and the wisdom teeth are the last to emerge.
• Once a bolus of food has been formed in the mouth, it is passed by the tongue and jaws to the pharynx
• All of the following are regions of the stomach EXCEPT the fundus
• The pylorus empties into the duodenum
• The middle segment of the small intestine is the jejunum
• The last portion of the small intestine is the ileum
• At the hepatic flexure, the colon becomes the transverse colon
• At the splenic flexure, the colon becomes the descending colon
• The saclike structure that joins the ileum at the ileocecal valve is the cecum
• Haustra are expansible pouches of the colon
• The human liver is composed of four lobe(s).
• The fusion of the hepatic duct and the cystic duct forms the common bile duct
• Each of the following organs is part of the urinary system, except the rectum
• Triangular or conical structures located in the renal medulla are calledrenal pyramids
• Glomerular (Bowman's) capsule and the glomerulus make up the renal corpuscle
• A glomerulus is a knot of capillaries within the renal corpuscle. 
• The U-shaped segment of the nephron is the nephron loop
• Blood leaves the glomerulus through a blood vessel called the efferent arteriole
• Capillaries that surround the proximal convoluted tubules are peritubular capillaries
• The following is a list of the blood vessels that carry blood to the kidney. Arrange the blood vessels listed below in the proper order in which blood passes through these vessels. renal artery, interlobar artery, arcuate artery, cortical radiate artery, afferent arteriole, glomerulus, efferent arteriole, and peritubular capillary
• The renal veins drain into the inferior vena cava, which returns blood to the heart
• The cells of the macula densa and the juxtaglomerular cells form the juxtaglomerular complex.  
• The broad ligament is an extensive mesentery that encloses the ovaries, uterine tubes, and uterus.  
• The organ that transports the ovum to the uterus is the fallopian tube(uterine tube)
• Which region of the uterine tube captures the ovum?infundibulum
