Glosarium
A
Alveolar ducts : The small channel that connects respiratory bronchioles
with alveolar sacs, each of which contains a cluster of
alveoli (small mucus sacs made of flattened epithelial
cells).
Alveolar sacs : This part of the lung anatomy is the smallest group.
Alveoli : Small pouch located in the lungs of mammals,
surrounded by a network of blood capillaries. Its main function
is to mediate gas exchange between air and blood.
Atrium : Upper heart chamber where blood enters into the heart.

B
Blood cells : All cells in all their forms normally found in the blood.
Blood vessels : Part of a circulatory system circulates blood to all parts of
the human body. These vessels circulate blood cells,
nutrients, and oxygen to body tissues and transport waste
and carbon dioxide to be excreted from the body.
Bronchi : Located branch of the windpipe after the trachea and also
before the lungs.
Breath : Air that is sucked in through the nose or mouth and
expelled back from the lungs.
Bronchioles : The branches of the bronchi are the main airways in the
lungs. The air you breathe when you breathe will enter
your lungs through the bronchi.
C
Choana : Funnel-shaped hole in the back of the nasal cavity which
leads to the base of the esophagus.
Cricoid cartilage : The cricoid cartilage is one and borders the lower ring of
the larynx.
Cough : The natural response of the body as a defense system to
remove substances and particles from the respiratory tract,
and prevent foreign objects from entering the lower
airway.

D
Diaphragm : The main muscles used in the process of inhaling and
exhaling.
Dioxide carbon : Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colorless liquid gas, odorless,
non-flammable, and slightly acidic.

E
Epiglottis : Leaf-shaped valve located behind the tongue. This valve
functions to close the windpipe when a person swallows,
so that food or liquids do not enter the respiratory tract.
Ethmoid sinus : Disorders that affect sinus structure or flow nasal
secretions.
Exhalation : Exhaling.

I
Inferior turbinate : The indentation structure is on the lateral or inner side of
the nose and is covered by mucosa.
L
Laryngitis : Inflammation of the throat that causes pain and makes
swallowing difficult.
Laryngomalacia : Congenital conditions in the form of weak laryngeal tissue
above vocal cords.
Larynx : The respiratory tract that carries air into the trachea.
Leptorhine nose : Long, narrow nose with an index of 55-75.
Lingual tonsils : Amandel
Lung : organs in the respiratory system (respiration) and
related to the circulatory system (circulation) of vertebrates that breathe with air.
Lungs : a pair of organs that have a chewy texture and contain oxygen, assisted
by the trachea in delivering oxygen.
Lung cancer :conditions when malignant cells become cancerous
form in the lungs.

M
Mucous : Thick and slippery liquid goods (such as phlegm,
snot) which is produced by the single-celled glands in the mucous membrane,
causing the surface to be constantly wet

N
Nasal bone : (Nasal bones) two small oblong bones, which have a
diversity in size and shape in different individuals; the two bones lie side by side
in the middle and top of the face, and form, by crossing them, the "bridge" of the
nose.
Nasal cavity :The place where the air enters the throat. Cavity
the nose is also in charge of maintaining humidity, temperature, and air pressure
there. Inside the cavity, there are mucous membranes and nasal hair.

Nasal polyps : Tissue that grows on the inside of the nasal passages.
Nasal polyps resemble grapes hanging on the inside of the
nose.
Nasal spine : Nasal spine
Nasopharynx : One part of the upper throat
located behind the nose and behind the roof of the mouth.

Nostrils : (Nostrils) Organs that are directly related

with the nasal cavity.

O
Oesophagus : Esophagus) The tube that drains food from the mouth
to the stomach.

Oral cavity : (Oral cavity) The entry point for food and water.

P
Palatal bones : The bones in the roof of the mouth.
Pharyngeal cancer : (Pharyngeal cancer) A condition when cancerous
malignant cells form in the pharynx.
Pharyngitis : (Laryngitis) inflammation of the throat
causes pain and makes swallowing difficult.
Pharynx : Upstream of the esophagus which is a fork channel,
namely between the channel that connects the mouth and
esophagus or called the digestive tract (osofarynx) which is
at the back, and the nose and throat which is known as the
respiratory tract (nasopharynx) which is at the front.
Pulmonary artery : Blood vessels that carry blood from the right ventricle of
the heart to the lungs.
Pulmonary vein : Veins that carry oxygen-rich blood, function
carries blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.

R
Respiratory system : (Respiratory System) The respiratory system or system
respiration is a biological system consisting of organs and
other structures used for gas exchange in animals and
plants.

S
Serous glands : Mixed glands containing serosa and mokusa.
Swelling : (Swelling) Enlargement or protuberance at
body, including tumors.

T
Throat : (Throat) The part of the neck consisting of the larynx and
pharynx.
Tonsillitis : Inflammation of two tissue bearing oval in shape
back of the throat or known as tonsillitis.
Trachea : (Trachea) The respiratory tract leading to the alveolus.
Tyroid cartilage : Cartilage that protects the vocal cords.

V
Ventricle : (Chamber) Serves to pump blood throughout the body.
Vocal cord : The vibrating valve that cuts the airflow from the lungs
into sound pulses that form the source of the larynx sound.
