    Study Notes

    Respiratory System Terminology

    • Pulmonary refers to the lungs or relating to the lungs
    • Bronchi (plural) are the airways that branch off from the trachea and lead to the lungs, while bronchus (singular) is a single airway
    • Alveoli (plural) are the tiny sacs within the lungs where gas exchange occurs, and alveolus (singular) is a single sac
    • Lumen is the inner space within a tubular organ, such as a blood vessel or airway, and can also refer to an opening
    • Hilus or hilum is the indentation in an organ, such as the lung, kidney, or spleen, where blood vessels, ducts, and other structures enter or leave the organ
    • Cilia are small hair-like projections from the cell membrane that help move particles or substances along the surface of the cell
