Which is true about intrapulmonary pressure and intrapleural pressure?

Intrapulmonary pressure is the pressure inside the lung alveoli, while intrapleural pressure is the pressure in the pleural cavity. During normal breathing, intrapleural pressure is lower than intrapulmonary pressure, creating a pressure gradient that helps keep the lungs inflated.


What would occur when he atmosheric pressure is higher than intrapulmonary pressure?

When the atmospheric pressure is higher than intrapulmonary pressure pressure, inspiration will not take place.


Why does air flow in when you expand your lungs?

Since the volume of the lungs increases, the intrathotacic pressure decreases, and air moves into the lungs.

Why intrapleural pressure is always less than intrapulmonary pressure?

firstly the intraplural cavity is a closed space and pressure change is due to increased volume. For example with the contraction of the diaphram causing the intraplural cavity to increase in size and therefore reducing the pressure causing inspiration. Since the intraplural space is attached to the lungs, the lungs also expands, theoretically increasing space and therefore reducing volume. So if the intraplural pressure down, lung pressure will also go down and vise versa with exhilation. hope that helps.
