Practice now so the test is easy. 1. What helps the ear maintain balance when underwater and explain the process? What happens if a swimmer does not equilize his/her ears? When you are underwater, the Eustachian tube is the key part. The Eustachian tube is a thin tube that connects the ear with the nose and throat. While underwater, there are a couple of tricks that a swimmer can use to maintain equilibrium. All of which deal with using the Eustachian tube to maintain air pressure. If I were to swim underwater, I could use either the valsalva or frenzel maneuver which deal with breathing against pinched nostrils. Frenzel allows me to swallow as well to force the Eustachian tube open to bring equilibrium in the ear. This prevents barotrauma or the ear. 2. Explain the process of blinking. What is involved and what is the purpose of blinking? Your eyes blink up to 15 times a minute. The eyelids are thin, external flaps of skin that wipe across the eye with each blink. The blink spreads the lubricating fluid that is secreted by the lacrimal glands. This lubricating fluid helps to prevent harmful objects and pathogens from infecting the eye. An example of your eye trying to wash out a chemical in your eye is when you are in a lab without safety goggles. The 1st line of defense is your eyelids, which shield off against splashes. However, if a chemical does get in your eye, the lacrimal glands secrete a lot more fluid to wash out the chemical. The excess fluid drains out into the nasal cavity. This is why when you cry, you sometimes have to blow your nose.
