With rare exceptions, the majority of oxygen is transported in the bloodof vertebratesa. by binding to plasma proteins.b. by binding to hemoglobin in erythrocytes.c. as dissolved gas in the plasma.d. as dissolved gas in the cytoplasm in the erythrocytes.e. by binding to myoglobin.
In addition to O2 binding, changes in other chemical conditions can result in changes in hemoglobin structure and function. Increases in blood H+ result in oxygen binding curves for hemoglobin that are shifted to the right. The effect of H+ can be understood in terms of the equilibrium:H-Hb+ + O2 → Hb-O2 + H+How does the difference in pH in the lungs and tissues help hemoglobin do its job of delivering oxygen? Use the equilibrium equation in your argument.
Explain the three factors that affect the affinity of hemoglobin to oxygen
Hydrogen bonding between water molecules is essential for lung expansion to occur, but also increases resistance during inspiration. Explain this contrast by describing the locations and how hydrogen bonding plays a positive and negative role in ventilation. Draw a diagram of the lung to show these opposing forces What would happen if intrapleural pressure(IPP) equaled atmospheric pressure (AtmP)? How could this happen?
You are studying with a friend who is describing the Bohr effect. She tells you that in the lungs, hemoglobin binds oxygen and releases hydrogen ion; as a result, the pH increases. She goes on to say that in actively metabolizing muscle tissue, hemoglobin releases oxygen and binds hydrogen ion and, as a result, the pH decreases. Do you agree with her reasoning? Why or why not?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse across our respiratory surface into and out of the blood via simple diffusion. The respiratory membrane is thin so gases diffuse only a short distance through the liquid and into the blood. Fluid buildup in the lungs increases the distance through the liquid medium. How does this impact the concentration of oxygen in the blood? Explain.
Which of the following stabilize the hemoglobin quaternary structure of low-affinity to oxygen molecules? Group of answer choices a. CO b. CO2 c. bisphosphoglycerate d. H+
