Q

Binding of oxygen to hemoglobin form?

A

Oxyhemoglobin

18
Q

The primary transport mechanism of 02 is?

A

The binding if 02 to hgb to form oxyhemoglobin

19
Q

Explain the O2 binding to hemoglobin

A

O2 molecules bind loosely and reversible with the heme portion of hemoglobin
O2 binds with hemoglobin when PO2 is high in the pulmonary capillaries
O2 is released from hemoglobin into tissue as the PO2 is low in the tissue capillaries

20
Q

When O2 is used up by cell. What is formed

A

CO2

21
Q

When CO2 is formed, intracellular PC02 increases to?

A

46 mm Hg

22
Q

Interstitial fluid PC02 is?

A

45 mm Hg

23
Q

PCO2 arterial blood entering tissue?

A

40 mm Hg

24
Q

CO2 diffuses from where to where?
Carried by blood to?

A

Cells to capillaries
Heart and then lungs

25
Q

CO2 in lungs diffuses from PCO2 45 mm Hg pulmonary capillaries to 40 mm Hg alveoli
True or false

A

True

26
Q

Only pressure difference 5 mm Hg causes required?

A

C02 diffusion

27
Q

In tissue capillaries, CO2 intiates host of?

A

Physical and chemical reactions

28
Q

Small portion of CO2 transported in dissolve state to lungs
True or Fasle

A

True

29
Q

About 0.0003 l (7%) CO2 transport in dissolved form
True or false

A

True

30
Q

Dissolved CO2 reacts H2O to form?

A

Carbonic acid H2CO3

31
Q

H2CO3 accounts about70% of CO2 transport (tissues to lungs)
True or false

A

True

32
Q

The reaction to form H2CO3 is catalyzed by?

A

Carbonic anhydrase in RBC

33
Q

CO2 also react with what ?

A

Amine radicals of hemoglobin molecules

34
Q

When CO2 reacts with amine radical
Forms?

A

Carbomiohemoglobin (CO2Hgb)

35
Q

CO2 and Hemoglobin is what type of reaction?

A

Reversible reaction

36
Q

The reaction of CO2 and Hemoglobin Occurs in loose bonds to allow easy release of CO2 in alveoli
True or false

A

True

37
Q

PO2 alveoli is higher than pulmonary capillaries
True of false

A

True

38
Q

CO2 reacts similary with plasma protein in tissues capillaries
True or false

A

True

39
Q

It’s less significant CO2 transport to quantity of?

A

Plasma protein

40
Q

Both cabaminohemoglobin and plasma protein transport about, from tissue to lung

A

30% CO2
