Q

What is cellular respiration?

A

Occurs in the mitochondria where 02 is used to breakdown glucose into c02 and h20 during aerobic respiration

Q

What is the steps of mechanical breathing?

A

Muscled actively contract or passively relax to cause
movement of the ribs sternum and abdomen which causes
the thoracic cavity volume to either increase or decrease which in turn causes the
lung air pressure to either increase or decrease which causes
ipsiration or expiration

Q

What happens in 02 transport?

Q

What does gaseous exchange rely on?

A

Relies on diffusion, gases move from an area of high to low pressure.
This is called the diffusion gradient

Q

What is the partial pressure like in deoxygenated blood?

A

Low partial pressure 02 and high partial pressure c02

17
Q

What happens with the diffusion of carbon dioxide in the alveoli?

A

O2 moves from the alveoli into the blood into the capillaries, c02 moves from the capillaries into the alveoli to be breathed out

18
Q

What does the oxygen dissociate curve represent?

A

How much haemglobin is in the alveoli

19
Q

Why does the curve shift to the right for oxygen dissociative curve?

A

Curve is shifting to the right due to exercise caused the Bohr effect/bohr shift. Allows 02 to dissociate from haemogloibin more easily. Haemoglobin releasing more 02 into the working muscles.

20
Q

What are the 4 factors that effect the curve going to the right?

A

Muscle temperature, decrease in pp 02

increase
