Human Body: Respiratory System

Hard

(Originais Teachy 2024) - Question Hard of Sciences

Technological advancement has allowed innovations in the treatment of respiratory diseases, such as continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP), widely used in the treatment of sleep apnea. The effectiveness of this treatment is based on the principle of keeping the upper airways open, which favors the entry of an adequate amount of air into the lungs during sleep. However, knowledge of the components and functioning of the respiratory system is essential to understand the mechanism of action of CPAP. Considering a patient with sleep apnea, explain how the obstruction of the upper airways affects the entry of air into the lungs and describe the role of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles in the breathing process. Additionally, discuss how CPAP therapy acts to overcome the respiratory difficulties resulting from the obstruction, relating the physical characteristics of air to pulmonary physiology.
a.
A obstrução das vias aéreas inferiores é o principal fator que leva à apneia do sono, e o CPAP atua dilatando essas vias para permitir a entrada adequada de ar nos pulmões.
b.
O CPAP é um dispositivo que administra anestesia geral ao paciente, o que permite a realização de procedimentos cirúrgicos nas vias aéreas superiores para corrigir a obstrução causada pela apneia do sono.
c.
Durante a apneia do sono, a pressão negativa criada pelo CPAP auxilia na manutenção das vias aéreas superiores fechadas, o que melhora a qualidade do sono e não afeta a entrada de ar nos pulmões.
d.
The obstruction of the upper airways in sleep apnea hinders the entry of air into the lungs, but CPAP, by keeping the airways open with positive pressure, allows for more effective breathing, helping the patient to obtain the necessary oxygen during sleep.
e.
Na apneia do sono, a obstrução das vias aéreas superiores não afeta significativamente a entrada de ar nos pulmões, e o CPAP é utilizado principalmente para regular a frequência cardíaca durante o sono.

Plants are very special living beings! They need water and sunlight to grow, just like we need food and water to live. Think of a little plant you saw or have at home, and tell me: Why are water and sunlight so important for this little plant to grow and look beautiful? Explain how you think the plant uses water and sunlight to make its food and stay alive.

Sometimes we can see people who eat a lot or very little and realize they are not healthy. This may be a sign that they have an eating disorder, such as obesity, which is when a person is overweight from consuming more food than their body needs. On the other hand, anorexia is a disorder in which the person is afraid of gaining weight and eats very little, which can harm their health. People with these disorders need help to learn how to have a balanced and healthy diet. Thinking about taking care of our body, write about what a balanced diet is and why it is important to maintain our health. Then, explain how families, schools, and governments can help children and adults learn to eat healthily and avoid eating disorders such as obesity and anorexia.
