25
Dalton’s Law
Total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures exerted by each gas The partial pressure of each gas is directly proportional to its percentage in the mixture
26
percentage of nitrogen in atmopshere with partial pressure
78.6% | 597 mm Hg
27
percentage of oxygen in atmopshere with partial pressure
20.9% | 159 mmHg
28
Henry’s Law
prescence of gas in liquid is proportional to its partial pressure at equilibrium the partial pressures will be even amount of gas dissolved also depends on solubility
29
solubility of CO2
CO2 is 20 times more soluble in | water than O2
30
solubility of nitrogen
very little nitrogen dissolves in water at surface pressure, which is why more O2 in us even though nitrogen has higher partial pressure
31
the bends
dive deep nitrogen absorbed due to increase in pressure, come up too fast and nitrogen rapidly escapes as bubbles
32
hyperbonic chamberq
high pressure chamber, slowly changes pressure
33
Alveoli contain more CO2 and water vapor than atmospheric air, due to
Gas exchanges in the lungs | Humidification of air in nasal cavity
34
why 1% o2 drop in trachea
due to diffusion in trachea tissue
35
why 7% o2 drop when reach alveoli
because diffuses into blood stream
36
External Respiration
Exchange of O2 and CO2 across the respiratory membrane
37
external respiration influenced by
Partial pressure gradients and gas solubilities Ventilation-perfusion coupling Structural characteristics of the respiratory membrane
38
how do you get a faster diffusion rate
bigger pressure difference, higher solubility
39
CO2 concentration in deoxygenated blood vs CO2 concentration in alveolus
46mmhg in bloo, 40mmhg in alveolus so diffuse into alveolus
40
O2 concentration in deoxygenated blood vs O2 concentration in alveolus
100mmhg in aleolus and 40 mmhg in blood so diffuse rapidly into blood
41
O2 concentration in oxygenated blood vs O2 concentration in cell
100mmhg in blood and 5mmhg in cell so diffuse into cell and then into mito
42
CO2 concentration in oxygenated blood vs CO2 concentration in cell
40mmhg in blood and more than 40mmhg in cell so diffuse into blood`
43
Venous blood Po2 =
40 mm Hg
44
Alveolar Po2 =
= 104 mm Hg
45
O2 partial pressures reach equilibrium of --- in how much time
of 104 mm Hg in ~0.25 seconds, (due to big difference between pressures) about 1/3 the time a red blood cell is in a pulmonary capillary
46
Venous blood Pco2 =-
45 mm Hg
47
Alveolar Pco2 =
40 mm Hg
48
given the partial pressure differences in blood and alveoli of o2 and co2, how does CO2 diffuses in equal amounts with oxygen
CO2 is 20 times more soluble in plasma than oxygen
49
Ventilation
flow of gas reaching the alveoli (AVR
50
Perfusion
blood flow reaching the alveoli
51
Ventilation-Perfusion Coupling
Ventilation and perfusion must be matched (coupled) for efficient gas exchange
52
Ventilation-Perfusion Coupling Changes that occur to match physiological needs
Where alveolar CO2 is high, bronchioles dilate (increase ventilation) Where alveolar CO2 is low, bronchioles constrict (decrease ventilation)
53
Internal Respiration partial pressures vs external respiration partial pressures
Partial pressures and diffusion gradients are reversed compared to external respiration Po2 in tissue is always lower than in systemic arterial blood Pco2 is 5 mm Hg higher in tissues
54
O2% dissolved in plasma
1.5%
55
O2% on hemoglobin
98.5% loosely bound to each Fe of hemoglobin (Hb) in RBCs
56
CO2% in plasma
7 to 10% dissolved in plasma
57
CO2% in hemoglobin
20% bound to globin of hemoglobin (carbaminohemoglobin
58
CO2% in bicarbonate
70% transported as bicarbonate ions (HCO3–) in plasma
59
Rate of loading and unloading of O2 in hemoglobin is regulated by
PO2 temperature Ph PCO2
60
which three of the factors affecting rate of unloading o2 influence 3D shape of hemoglobin
Temperature Blood pH Pco2
61
how much O2 is unloaded during one systemic circulation
20–25% of bound O2
62
If O2 levels in tissues drop
More oxygen dissociates from hemoglobin and is used by cells Respiratory rate or cardiac output need not increase instantly
63
Haldane Effect
The amount of CO2 transported is affected by the Po2 | The less O2 hemoglobin saturation, the more CO2 can be carried in the blood (because co2 with water makes acid)
64
how can Changes in respiratory rate alter blood pH
slow shallow breathing allows CO2 to accumulate in the blood, causing pH to drop Changes in ventilation can be used to adjust pH when it is disturbed by metabolic factors
65
brain parts that control respiration
neurons in the medulla and pons
66
Genesis of respiratory system
Ventral respiration group controls normal breathing (eupnea) Dorsal respiration group responds to changes in stretch of lungs and Po2 in blood Signal sent down the phrenic (diaphragm) and intercostal nerves
67
How does Co2 affect breathing rate
Increase CO2 in blood changes PH, and the medulla in brain signals increase breathing rate
68
Hyperventilation
Increased rate of breathing that exceeds body’s need to remove CO2, too much CO2 released
69
Hypercapnia
Increased Co2 levels
70
Decrease in CO2 causes
Blood vessels to restrict
71
Hypocapnia
Low levels of CO2
72
Apnea
Where breathing stops that can happen when PCO2 is too low
73
Three neural factors that cause increase in ventilation as exercise begins
Psychological stimuli (anticipation of exercise) Simultaneous cortical motor activation of skeletal muscles and respiratory centers Excitatory impulses reaching respiratory centers
74
Fast travel to altitudes above 8000 feet may produce symptoms of
Acute mountain sickness (AMS) | Headaches, shortness of breath, nausea, dizziness
75
Acclimation
Respiratory and hematopoietic adjustments to altitude | Minute ventilation increases and stabilized in a few days to 2-3L/min higher than at sea level
76
EPO production
Decline of O2 in blood stimulates the kidneys to accelerate production of EPO
77
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder
Chronic bronchitis and emphysema Irreversible Dyspnea
78
Eupnea
Normal breathing
79
Apnea
Stopping in breathing some point in time | No rhythm
80
Dyspnea
Difficult or labored breathing
81
Asthma
Coughing, dyspnea, wheezing, and chest tightness | Active inflammation with bronchospasms
82
Tuberculosis
Infectious disease caused by bacterium Fever, night sweats, weight loss, cough, and spitting up blood 12 month course of antibiotics
83
Lung cancer
Leading cause of cancer deaths in North America | 90% of all cases are result of smoking
84
How to inflate balloon with muscles and mechanics
Increase volume in lungs by diaphragm pushing down, causing decrease in pressure and we inhale Air forced out by abdominal muscles pushing diaphragm up further using internal costars
