| respiratory tract fistula | An abnormal passage communicating between any parts of the respiratory tract or between any part of the respiratory system and other organs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respiratory transport | The processes of gas exchange and various metabolic functions taking place in the lung, generally at the alveolar level. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respire | 1. <physiology> To breathe in and out; to inspire and expire, as air; to breathe successively, for the purpose of maintaining the vitality of the blood. "A native of the land where I respire The clear air for a while." (Byron) 2. To breathe out; to exhale. Origin: L. Respirare, respiratum; pref. Re- re- + spirare to breathe: cf. F. Respirer. (10 Mar 1998) |
| respirometer | 1. An instrument for measuring the extent of the respiratory movements. 2. An instrument for measuring oxygen consumption or carbon dioxide production, usually of an isolated tissue. Origin: L. Respiro, to breathe, + G. Metron, measure (05 Mar 2000) |
| respite care | Patient care provided in the home or institution intermittently in order to provide temporary relief to the family home care giver. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respond | To say something in return, make an answer, to show some reaction to a force or stimulus, to render satisfaction. Origin: L. Respondere = to answer, reply (18 Nov 1997) |
| respondent behaviour | The behaviour in response to a specific stimulus; usually associated with classical conditioning. See: conditioning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respondent conditioning | A type of conditioning, first studied by I. P. Pavlov, in which a previously neutral stimulus (bell sound) elicits a response (salivation) as a result of pairing it (associating it contiguously in time) a number of times with an unconditioned or natural stimulus for that response (food shown to a hungry dog). Synonym: pavlovian conditioning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| response | An action or movement due to the application of a stimulus. Origin: L. Respondere = to answer, reply (18 Nov 1997) |
| response generalisation | <biology> The principle that after an organism learns to respond in a particular manner to a stimulus, that stimulus is effective in eliciting similar responses. (12 Dec 1998) |
| response hierarchy | Alternative reactions or modes of adjustment to a given situation arranged in the probable order of prior effectiveness; e.g., a mother attempting to discipline an unruly child may first request, cajole, then plead, scold, and finally punish; her behaviours can be ordered along a response hierarchy for further monitoring of effectiveness.

| resistance thermometer |
(Also called electrical resistance thermometer) A type of electrical thermometer in which the thermal element is a substance with an electrical resistance that varies with the temperature. Such thermometers can be made with very short time constants and are capable of very accurate measurements. They are commonly used in radiosondes.

| resonance |
The condition that results when a system is acted upon by a periodic driving force the frequency of which coincides with one of the natural frequencies of the system. The steady-state amplitude of the system, for fixed amplitude of the driving force, is a local maximum at a resonance frequency.

| resonance theory |
Theory developed by Lord Kelvin in 1855 explaining the relatively large amplitude of the solar semidiurnal component of the atmospheric tides on the basis of the resonance of a hypothetical natural atmospheric oscillation of the same period. (From WMO International Meteorological Vocabulary.)
