Transport of O2 and CO2 Flashcards
The partial pressures of the gases ONLY include the gases that are dissolved in the __
plasma
tissue PO2 is a function of
-rate of O2 transport
-rate tissues use O2
__ of O2 reversibly binds to hemoglobin inside of the RBC
98%
do the veins (Svo2) or arteries (Sao2) have more hemoglobin saturated with O2?
arteries (97%) vs veins (75%)
oxygen is bound to hemoglobin and dissolved in __
plasma
O2 reversibly binding to RBC does not contribute to __
partial pressure
Pa veins CO2
46
__ must be in ferrous state to bind O2
iron (Fe2+)
Pa arteries O2
95
hemoglobinA has __ subunits (each binds 1 O2)
4 (alpha2beta2)
Pa arteries CO2
40
amount of oxygen bound to Hb depends on
- plasma O2
- number of binding sites on RBC
Pa veins O2
40
reduce hemoglobin significantly decreases __
blood oxygen
average CaO2 is __ ml of O2/ __ ml of blood
20, 100
__ of oxygen is dissolved in plasma
2%
__ binds to beta subunits to deoxy HB and decrease O2 affinity
2,3- BPG
high PO2 hemoglobins affinity for O2 is __
highest (positive cooperativity)
hemoglobin has __ structure
quartnary (cooperative)
2,3-BPG only binds to?
B hemoglobin subunits
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the __ (BOHR effect)
right
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve to the right indicates __ affinity between hemoglobin and oxygen
decreased
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve to the right matchs O2 delivery on demand, helps since O2 can be released at __
selective tissues
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve shift to the right causes
-increased H+
-increased CO2
-increased temp.
-increased BPG
RBCs contain 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate which is a metabolic __
intermediate
