36
Q

a) describe distention
b) why might you want your lungs to have a high distention?

A

F - usually only one at a time

46
Q

59
Q

Describe an anatomical dead space wrt the lungs

A

the air in the conduction zone (where no gas exchange occurs). It contains a lower concentration of O2 and a higher concentration of CO2. This air enters the alveoli first so the amount of fresh air that reaches the alveoli is less than the tidal volume (regular breath)

60
Q

If the anatomical dead space is 150mL and the tidal volume is 500mL. What is the percentage of fresh air entering the alveoli?

A
  1. 150 - 500 = 350
  2. 350/500 = 0.7
  3. 0.7 x 100% = 70%
61
Q

If the anatomical dead space is 150mL and the tidal volume is 2000mL. What is the percentage of fresh air entering the alveoli?

A
  1. 150 - 2000 = 1850
  2. 350/500 = 0.93
  3. 0.7 x 100% = 93%
62
Q

What is the anatomical dead space volume?

A

150mL

63
Q

a) What does Hemoglobin contain?
b) Where is hemoglobin present?
c) What is its main role?

A

a) iron
b) cytoplasm of RBC
c) to shuttle O2 from the lungs to the body

64
Q

What happens when there is low CO2 levels in the blood?

A

INC pH = more basic

65
Q

Describe the concentration of CO2 in the following areas
a) lungs
b) body tissues

A

a) it diffuses from the BV to the alveoli and out the lungs resulting in a low concentration causing INC pH
b) it builds up in tissues as waste causing DEC pH

66
Q

How does CO2 concentration influence hemoglobin?

A

High concentrations of CO2 result in low acidity which allows hemoglobin to bind to O2. But under low [CO2] acidity is higher allowing hemoglobin to release its O2.

67
Q

Describe oxyhemoglobin

A

Hb + O2

68
Q

T or F - Hb only binds to O2 as it must act as a shuttle

A

F - it can also bind to CO2 acting as a shuttle for it aswell

69
Q

If Hemoglobin is able to bind to both O2 and CO2 what stops it from just binding to all the CO2 and preventing O2 from being transported?

A

Within the lungs the [O2] > [CO2] thus more oxyhemoglobin will form

70
Q

What are the 3 ways that CO2 is transported? (indicate the most common)

A
  1. dissolve into the blood as CO2
  2. carbamino compound = CO2 + Hb
  3. converted to bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) by carbonic anhydrase after diffusing into RBC (most common)
71
Q

What does carbonic anhydrase do? (bicarbonate equation)

A

CO2 + H2O –> HCO3- + H+

72
Q

Describe the bicarbonate equation direction for the following
a) body tissues
b) lungs

A

a) high [CO2] = CO2 + H2O –> HCO3- + H+
b) low [CO2] = HCO3- + H+ -> CO2 + H2O

73
Q

Where is this occurring?
a) muscle
b) body tissues
c) heart
d) all of the above
e) lungs

A

75
Q

During exercise, there is an INC in ventilation what does this mean

A

we tend to breathe more while exercising causing a higher frequency of gas exchange

76
Q

Describe the 2 neurogenic mech that explains the immediate INC in ventilation that occurs as exercise begins

A
  1. respiratory muscles may be stimulated by sensory nerves activity due to the exercising
  2. he cerebral cortex may stimulate the brain stem to modify ventilation due to the exercising
77
Q

Describe the humoral (chemical) mech that explains the continued deep + rapid INC in ventilation that occurs after exercise has terminated

A

CO2 and pH use different chemoreceptors than O2 causing a delay in downstream regions

78
Q

T or F - at the beginning of a workout the body is unable to supply the adequate amount of O2 thus causing the muscles to metabolize anaerobically

A

T

79
Q

What is the lactate threshold?

A

the max rate of O2 consumption attained before anaerobic metabolism produces a rise in blood lactate levels

80
Q

What causes a rise in lactate levels w/in the blood?

A

limitation in aerobic metabolism (where body is not able to supply enough O2)

81
Q

What is the significance of Mat Fraser?

A

he has a higher lactate threshold allowing him to deliver more O2 to his muscles and has more mitochondria + Krebs cycle enzymes to skeletal muscles

82
Q

What is the significance of Felix Baumgartner?

A

the first person to undergo a supersonic free fall

83
Q

the atmosphere becomes thinner w/ INC altitude. What does this mean?
