    Study Notes

    Respiratory System

    • The respiratory system consists of the following components:
      • Nose
      • Pharynx
      • Larynx
      • Trachea
      • Bronchus
      • Lung

    Nose

    • The nose has two portions:
      • External portion
      • Internal portion (nasal cavity)
    • The internal portion has three regions:
      • Vestibule
      • Olfactory region
      • Respiratory region
    • The nasal septum separates the two sides of the nasal cavity
    • The nasal cavity has several sinuses:
      • Middle ethmoidal sinus
      • Post-ethmoidal sinus
      • Frontal sinus
      • Sphenoidal sinus
      • Ant-ethmoidal sinus
      • Maxillary sinus
    • The nasolacrimal duct connects the nasal cavity to the eye

    Nasal Meatus

    • The nasal cavity has three meatus (passages):
      • Superior nasal meatus
      • Middle nasal meatus
      • Inferior nasal meatus
    • The meatus connect to the sinuses:
      • Post-ethmoidal sinus connects to the superior nasal meatus
      • Ant-ethmoidal sinus, Middle ethmoidal sinus, Frontal sinus, and Maxillary sinus connect to the middle nasal meatus
      • Nasolacrimal duct connects to the inferior nasal meatus
    • The Sphenoethmoidal recess is a passage that connects to the Sphenoidal sinus

    Pharynx

    • The pharynx has three regions:
      • Nasopharynx
      • Oropharynx
      • Laryngopharynx
    • The pharynx contains:
      • Pharyngeal tonsil (also known as the Third tonsil or Adenoid)
      • Eustachian salpinx (also known as the Auditory tube or Pharyngotympanic tube)
      • Salpingopharyngeus muscle
