I remember learning this a while back in one of my physio classes. It was so confusing cause the professor talked fast and didn't clearly break it down. Luckily, this short video thoroughly explains the cells in a clear voice and at a good pace.
Learning the different types of pneumocyte helped me understand this more than in class. I like how this video can be paused and then play on your timing and like rewinding if you till have questions on it.
When I was reviewing the histology of the respiratory system, I realized that I didn't know the difference between the pneumocytes. Being able to refer to this video was really helpful!
Thank you for explaining the function of the Type II pneumocyte and its importance! In class I was not able to grasp how surfactant decreases surface tension, but this video clarified that concept for me.
This video is very helpful. While reading the textbook, going to watch this video makes it a lot more easier to understand. This video is also helpful for studying.
During office hours you talked about this topic and drew a diagram of the alveoli that helped show us where each of the cells were located. I think that would help make this video better
I didn't know that there were three types of pneumocytes before watching this video and I appreciate that you include videos such as these that we don't go over in class, to help us further understand each chapter.
Surfactant and how it decreased surface tension kind of confused me at first but with the pictures and example of IRDS I understand it a lot better now. It was a good, organized video on what the 3 types do. Thanks!
I got this question wrong on the quiz in lab so before the practical I was sure to go over this video. After spending time to learn about the differences I understand the function of each pneumocyte type. It was good to see the basic function of each so clearly then it helped put it all together when you expanded on each.
Thanks fo list the 3 types! I was unfamiliar with them and this video was a perfect summary. I like how you made a reference to IRDS so that we can easily associate that with Type II.
I'm glad I am going over these videos because there are some things you didn't go over in class such as the third type of pneumocytes. What we went over in class makes more sense now, I understand that the alveoli Type I and Type II are pneumocytes found in the alveoli and serve different functions. Without this video, I would most likely have to do further research on these topics to make simple connections haha
I didn't realize that there was a third type of pneumocyte, so this video helped me understand the role of these macrophages in the respiratory system.
Clear explanation of the different types of pneumocyte and their functions. I'm a visual learner and like when you color coat the different types, so that would of been helpful here.
Explaining the surface tension and how it helps breathing was really helpful because i was a little confused on that.i also like how you explained the infant respiratory distress syndrome and how it relates to the type 2 tissue
The organization of the different types of pneumocytes was helpful; it made it easier to understand and follow along! One question; does decreasing the surface tension also increase the surface area for gas exchange?
You didn't go over this in class, and I wish I would've watched it because I would've got the questions of type 1 and 2 pneumocytes on the test! maybe next time!
