Question
Chapter 34.7, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
What a doctor might be assuming about a patient’s blood chemistry when he or she gives bicarbonate to the patient who is breathing rapidly.
Introduction:
Gas exchange involves the inhalation of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide through lungs. For gaseous exchange both heart and lungs are responsible. Hemoglobin is the iron containing pigment that carries oxygen into the blood and is called respiratory pigments. Respiratory pigment increases the concentration of oxygen in blood

WHAT IF? If your doctor gave you a copy of your ECG recording, how could you determine what your heartrate had been during the test?
WHAT IF? If an injury tore a small hole in the membranes surrounding your lungs, what effect on lungfunction would you expect?
WHAT IF? The heart of a normally developing humanfetus has a hole between the left and right atria. Insome cases, this hole does not close completely beforebirth. If the hole weren’t surgically corrected, howwould it affect the O2 content of the blood enteringthe systemic circuit?
