Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Among the given options, which temperature options would decrease the volume of a sample of gas base on Charles’s law has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Charles’s Law tells that the relationship between temperature and volume of a gas. The law states that at constant pressure the volume of a fixed amount of gas is directly proportional to the temperature in Kelvin units. The mathematical expression for the relationship between volume and Kelvin temperature according to the Charles’s law can be shown as follows,

- Gas moves from an area of ________ partial pressure to an area of ________ partial pressure. low; high low; low high; high high; lowarrow_forward9. Which of the following states that the rate of gas diffusion is inversely proportional to the weight of the gas? A. Graham’s law B. Charles’ law C. Henry’s law D. Gay-Lussac’s lawarrow_forwardExplain why the gas values from the alveolar air to the blood change during pulmonary gas exchange. For example: Alveolar air for CO2 has a value of 40mmHg then when entering the blood shifts to 45mmHg. Why does this occur? I tried to calculate this by using Dalton’s law but I’m not Understanding.arrow_forward
- Which of the following is NOT a determinant of gas exchange as described by Fick's Law? a. Steepness of the concentration gradient b. Number of ion channels in alveolar membrane c. Thickness of the alveolar membrane d. Permeability of the alveolar membrane to gases e. Surface area of the alveolar membranearrow_forwardA patient who breathes very slowly when wearing a low Flow of oxygen device would have: A. An increased concentration of oxygen in the lungs B. A decreased concentration of oxygen in the lungs C. There is no effect on oxygen concentration in the lungs D. There is a minimal if no effect on oxygen concentration in the lungsarrow_forwardWhich of those substances are major components of the pulmonary surfactant? Select one: a. Phospholipids b. Carbohydrates c. Proteins d. Glycolipidsarrow_forward
- Which of the following will cause the largest increase in systemic arterial oxygen saturation in the blood?a. an increase in red cell concentration (hematocrit) of 20%b. breathing 100% O2 in a healthy subject at sea levelc. an increase in arterial PO2 from 40 to 60 mmHgd. hyperventilation in a healthy subject at sea levele. breathing a gas with 5% CO2, 21% O2, and 74% N2 at sea levelarrow_forwardSelect the best answer or answers from the choices given: Which of the following determines the direction of gas movement? (a) solubility in water, (b) partial pressure gradient, (c) temperature, (d) molecular weight and size of the gas molecule.arrow_forwardCalculate the average ml of oxygen molecules in 100 ml blood in the athletes at low altitude and then in athletes in high altitude while training at high altitude. Use the following information: 1.39 ml of oxygen per gram of hemoglobin. Do athletes training at high altitudes have more or less oxygen molecules per ml of blood then athletes training at low altitudes? Explain why this difference gives athletes who train at high altitudes an advantage over athletes who train only at low altitudes.arrow_forward
- Which of the following is the primary method by which carbon dioxide is transported to the lungs? a. Dissolved in plasma b. Bound to hemoglobin c. As carbon monoxide d. As bicarbonatearrow_forwardDuring respiration, oxygen is inhaled through the airways into the alveoli where gas exchange occurs. For each condition described below, state if the flux of oxygen through the blood gas barrier into the pulmonary capillaries increases or decreases. Use Fick’s law to justify your answer. a. Climbing to the top of Mt. Everest b. More abundant but smaller alveoli c. Extreme increase in pulmonary capillary pressure d. Pulmonary fibrosisarrow_forwardWhich of the following best describes the gas exchange that occurs in the lungs? A. carbon dioxide diffuses into the capillaries from the alveoli B. oxygen diffuses from the capillaries into the alveoli C. carbon dioxide diffuses from the capillaries into the alveoli D. oxygen diffuse into the alveoli from the capillariesarrow_forward
