| alveolar dead space | The difference between physiologic dead space and anatomical dead space; it represents that part of the physiologic dead space resulting from ventilation of relatively underperfused or nonperfused alveoli; it differs specifically in being placed so as to fill and empty in parallel with functional alveoli, rather than being interposed in the conducting tubes between functional alveoli and the external environment. (05 Mar 2000) |

| anatomical dead space | The volume of the conducting airways from the external environment (at the nose and mouth) down to the level at which inspired gas exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide with pulmonary capillary blood; formerly presumed to extend down to the beginning of alveolar epithelium in the respiratory bronchioles, but more recent evidence indicates that effective gas exchange extends some distance up the thicker-walled conducting airways because of rapid longitudinal mixing. Compare: alveolar dead space, physiologic dead space. Synonym: anatomical airway. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory dead space | That portion of the respiratory tract, from the nose and mouth to the terminal bronchioles, in which exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide does not occur (anatomical dead space), together with the space in alveoli occupied by air that does not participate in oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange (physiologic dead space). It reflects the nonuniformity of ventilation and perfusion in the lung. (12 Dec 1998) |
| physiologic dead space | The sum of anatomic and alveolar dead space; the dead space calculated when the carbon dioxide pressure in systemic arterial blood is used instead of that of alveolar gas in Bohr's equation; it is a virtual or apparent volume that takes into account the impairment of gas exchange because of uneven distributions of lung ventilation and perfusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dead space | A cavity, potential or real, remaining after the closure of a wound which is not obliterated by the operative technique. See: anatomical dead space, physiologic dead space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiological | Of or pertaining to physiology; relating to the science of the functions of living organism; as, physiological botany or chemistry. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| physiological adaptation | A peculiarity of the basic physical and chemical activities that occur in cells and tissues of a species, which results in it being better fitted to its environment (for example, ability to absorb nutrients under low oxygen tensions). (09 Oct 1997) |
| physiological anatomy | Anatomy studied in its relation to function. Synonym: morphophysiology, physiological anatomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiological chemistry | The scientific study of the chemistry of living cells, tissues, organs and organisms. (09 Oct 1997) |
| physiological drives | Those drives such as hunger and thirst which stem from the biological needs of an organism. Synonym: primary drives. (05 Mar 2000) |

| physiological sphincter | A section of a tubular structure that acts as if it has a band of circular muscle to constrict it, although no such specialised structure can be found on morphological examination. Synonym: functional sphincter, radiological sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dead | 1. Deprived of life; opposed to alive and living; reduced to that state of a being in which the organs of motion and life have irrevocably ceased to perform their functions; as, a dead tree; a dead man. "The queen, my lord, is dead." "The crew, all except himself, were dead of hunger." (Arbuthnot) "Seek him with candle, bring him dead or living." (Shak) 2. Destitute of life; inanimate; as, dead matter. 3. Resembling death in appearance or quality; without show of life; deathlike; as, a dead sleep. 4. Still as death; motionless; inactive; useless; as, dead calm; a dead load or weight. 5. So constructed as not to transmit sound; soundless; as, a dead floor. 6. Unproductive; bringing no gain; unprofitable; as, dead capital; dead stock in trade. 7. Lacking spirit; dull; lusterless; cheerless; as, dead eye; dead fire; dead colour, etc. 8. Monotonous or unvaried; as, a dead level or pain; a dead wall. "The ground is a dead flat." 9. Sure as death; unerring; fixed; complete; as, a dead shot; a dead certainty. "I had them a dead bargain." (Goldsmith) 10. Bringing death; deadly. 11. Wanting in religious spirit and vitality; as, dead faith; dead works. "Dead in trespasses." 12. Flat; without gloss; said of painting which has been applied purposely to have this effect. Not brilliant; not rich; thus, brown is a dead colour, as compared with crimson. 13. Cut off from the rights of a citizen; deprived of the power of enjoying the rights of property; as, one banished or becoming a monk is civilly dead. 14. <machinery> Not imparting motion or power; as, the dead spindle of a lathe, etc. See Spindle. Dead ahead, a wind directly ahead, or opposed to the ship's course. To be dead, to die. "I deme thee, thou must algate be dead." (Chaucer) Synonym: Inanimate, deceased, extinct. See Lifeless. Origin: OE. Ded, dead, deed, AS. Dead; akin to OS. Dd, D. Dood, G. Todt, tot, Icel. Daur, Sw. & Dan. Dod, Goth. Daubs; prop. P. P. Of an old verb meaning to die. See Die, and cf. Death.
