Question

2 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) includes which respiratory disorders? multiple choice chronic bronchitis and emphysema lung cancer and cystic fibrosis pneumothorax and alveolitis smokers lung and asthma

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a group of lung diseases that block airflow and make breathing difficult. Chronic bronchitis is characterized by inflammation and mucus - producing in the bronchial tubes. Emphysema involves damage to the alveoli (air sacs) in the lungs. These two conditions are the main components of COPD. Lung cancer is a malignant tumor of the lungs, cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder affecting the exocrine glands, pneumothorax is the presence of air in the pleural cavity, alveolitis is inflammation of the alveoli, "smoker's lung" is a general term for lung damage due to smoking (not a specific medical diagnosis in the same category as COPD components), and asthma is a different respiratory condition with reversible airway obstruction (not typically part of the classic COPD definition which usually refers to chronic and mostly irreversible obstruction).

Answer:

Chronic bronchitis and emphysema
