Understanding the Anatomy of the Respiratory System

Explore the structures and the specialized cells of the lungs and airways with this Understanding the Anatomy of the Respiratory System learning program (ENGLISH ONLY).

A.D.A.M., Inc. provides fully animated, fully narrated, interactive eLearning programs relevant to health care and life sciences. This learning program is designed to introduce you to the anatomy and histology of the respiratory system. The program begins with an overview of the anatomy of the upper respiratory tract, followed by the anatomy of the lower respiratory tract. You will then learn about the architecture of the airways and how it relates to the respiratory system. You will also learn about the specialized cells and blood supply of the respiratory system.

Progress checks throughout the program will help reinforce key concepts. A final assessment at the end of the program will evaluate your ability to meet the learning objectives. At the end of this learning program you will be able to demonstrate your knowledge of respiratory system anatomy using the appropriate language. This program will cover 45 topics and will take you approximately 55 minutes to complete.

Upon completion of this learning program, you will be able to:

• Identify and describe the major structures of the upper respiratory tract
• Identify and describe the major structures of the lower respiratory tract
• Describe the airways and muscles of respiration
• Describe the major histological components of the respiratory system
• Describe the blood supply of the respiratory system

Program Features:

• Fully-narrated and animated learning
• Evaluations throughout the program
• Narration script accessible at all times
• Glossary available at all times
• Easy navigational tools
