1 end expiration -5 0 0 start expiration -7 +2 0 Transpulmonary pressures during expiration air mid expiration -5 1 0 air Ptp+9 +5 +6

2 What keeps the lung inflated at end-expiration? 1.The negative Ppl

3 end expiration -5 0 Lungs collapse if chest is opened

4 What keeps the lung inflated at end-expiration? 2. Alveolar surfactant (phospholipid secreted by alveolar type II cells)

5 Type I Type II water type II cell type I cell alveolar space The alveolar air-water interface

6 Type I Type II water air Air-water interfacial tension T T Palv T Laplace: If Palv constant, Alveolar radius 1

7 Type I Type II water air T Alveolar surfactant decreases air-water tension T Palv T Alveolar radius 1

8 Lung volumes residual volume total lung capacity inspiratory volume expiration tidal volume (500 ml) functional residual capacity inspiration 3 L 6 L 1.5 L
