Gas Transport 2

Question 1

What is carbon dioxide in solution like

Answer 1

Henry’s law
Carbon dioxide 20 times more soluble in oxygen
10% carried co2 is in solution

Question 2

Co2 trans as bicarbonate

Answer 2

Most co2 trans like this
Formed by co2 plus Water with carbonic anhydrase
Cause chooride shift

Question 3

What are carbamino compounds

Answer 3

Formed by combination of carbon dioxide with terminal amine group in blood protein
Especially globin of Hb to give carbamino Hb
Rapid even without enzyme
Reduced Hb can bind more carbon dioxide than hbO2

Question 4

What is the haldene effect

Answer 4

Remove O2 from Hb increases the ability of Hb to pick up co2 and co2 gen hydrogen ions

Question 5

How does the haldene and Bohr effect work

Answer 5

Work in synchrony to facilitate oxygen liberation and uptake of carbon dioxide and carbon dioxide gen hydrogen ions at tissues

Question 6

What does the haldene effect do to the co2 dissociation curve

Answer 6

Shift to right

Question 7

At the lungs the Hb picks up ..

Answer 7

Oxygen

This weakens ability to bind carbon dioxide and hydrogen ions

Question 8

What are the means of co2 in the blood being transported

Answer 8

Solution 10%
Bicarbonate 60%
Carbamino compounds 30%
