Which of the following statements is false? In the tissues, PO2 drops as blood passes from the arteries to the veins, while PCO2 increases. Blood travels from the lungs to the heart to body tissues, then back to the heart, then the lungs. Blood travels from the lungs to the heart to body tissues, then back to the lungs, then the heart. PO2 is higher in air than in the lungs.

When tissue of the body are unloading CO2 into the blood, what best describes what happens to most of the CO2? A. Most of the CO2 unloads into the blood plasma where it reacts with water to become HCO3- B. Most of the CO2 unloads into the red blood cell where it reacts with water to become HCO3-, which is then transported out of the red blood cell and directly into the blood plasma. C. Most of the CO2 binds to hemoglobin in the red blood cell. D. Most of the CO2 unloads into the blood plasma where it reacts with water to become HCO3-, which is then transported directly into the red blood cell.
If the oxygen levels increased throughout your body, you would expect to see the following occur to bring levels back to homeostasis Group of answer choices A decrease in sympathetic activity to the smooth muscle of blood vessels An increase in heart rate An increase in stroke volume An increase in parasympathetic activity to the smooth muscle of blood vessels An increase in sympathetic activity to the heart
During intense exercises and when muscles are working harder, our cells metabolize glucose rapidly resulting to oxygen molecules being quickly consumed. Which of the following becomes the human body's coping mechanism in response to limited oxygen supply? faster breathing and lower blood circulation slower breathing and faster blood circulation faster breathing and faster blood circulation slower breathing and slower blood circulation
Which of the following factors would increase the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood? Question 6 options: A 50% increase in hematocrit in combination with blood cells that have half the concentration of hemoglobin? A 20% increase in myoglobin levels. An increase in temperature. An increase in pH none of the above would increase the total amount of oxygen carried by the blood
Which of the following carries oxygento various parts of human body?A. Red blood cellsB. White blood cellsC. PlasmaD. Nerves
Why do you think this change in levels occurs the oxygen levels as blood passes through the lungs?
Which of the following statements best describes the function of the pulmonary arteries or veins? Pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs. Pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood to the right atrium of the heart from the lungs. Pulmonary veins carry deoxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart. Pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the right atrium of the heart.
The ________ circulation picks up oxygen for cellular use and drops off carbon dioxide for removal from the body.
Describe what happens in the respiratory system when you run to catch a bus by placing the following in order (#1-7). Consider that the running will have caused an increase in cellular respiration, which results in an increase in CO2 (this is the change in the variable). The increase in CO2 will be detected by the brain, which will ultimately cause an increase in ventilation. Blood CO2 levels increased and O2 levels decreased. Increased ventilation results. Chemoreceptors detect decreased O2 and increased concentration of CO2/decreased pH. Return to normal CO2 and O2 levels. Respiratory centers increases its stimulation of spinal nerves (phrenic and intercostal). Increased frequency and degree of contraction of respiratory muscles. Central and peripheral chemoreceptors stimulate the respiratory centers in the brainstem. Increased cellular respiration in response to the running.
Which of the following is an example of negative feedback? A. High blood sugar will increase the viscosity of blood plasma (plasma is concentrated). In response, water is drawn into the plasma from surrounding tissues in order to dilute the plasma B. Breathing rate increases during exercise to provide more oxygen to muscle cells. Heart rate also increase to increase the speed at which the oxygen is delivered. C. During digestion cells in the stomach produce HCl to begin breaking down proteins, the HCl then stimulates the release of pepsin, to continue breaking down proteins. D. In the immune system, antibodies produced by B-cells bind to antigens, which activates other B-cells to produce antibodies of the same kind.
"If your muscles are not getting enough oxygen, your kidneys release a hormone, Erythropoietin (EPO), which stimulates the production of red blood cells by the bone marrow or vice versa. This is example of " neutral feedback positive feedback negative feedback all of these
