Analyze Question 21

The question asks for the medical term describing a breathing pattern that is deeper than normal. Let's break down the options using Medical Terminology and Medical Prefixes:

• tachypnea: "tachy-" (rapid) + "-pnea" (breathing), meaning rapid, shallow breathing.
• hyperpnea: "hyper-" (increased/excessive) + "-pnea" (breathing), which specifically refers to an increased depth and rate of breathing (deeper than normal), often in response to metabolic needs.
• asthma: A chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, not a specific term for deep breathing.
• hyperventilation: Rapid or deep breathing that can lead to low carbon dioxide levels, but "hyperpnea" is the direct term for breathing that is deeper than normal.

Therefore, the correct term is hyperpnea.

Analyze Question 22

The question asks for the term used to describe coarse rattling or high-pitched snoring sounds heard in the lungs. Let's analyze the options:

• stridor: A high-pitched, wheezing sound caused by disrupted airflow in the upper airway (larynx or trachea).
• rales (crackles): Clicking, rattling, or crackling noises heard on inhalation, often associated with fluid in the alveoli.
• rhonchi: Continuous, low-pitched, rattling or coarse snoring-like sounds in the bronchial tubes, usually caused by secretions or obstruction in the larger airways.
• atelectasis: Using Atelectasis Definition, this is the collapse of part or all of a lung, not a breath sound.

Therefore, the correct term is rhonchi.
