When will oxyhemoglobin releases more oxygen?
when it reaches tissues and cells that are low on oxygen
A lower than normal level of oxygen in tissues is called?
A lower than normal level of oxygen is called hypoxia.
What are the long term effects of increased oxygen diffusion rate?
An increase in diffusion rates in tissues favours oxygen movement from the capillaries to the tissues, and carbon dioxide from the cells to the blood. Also With some training these rates increase, allowing oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse more rapidly.
Main function of RBc?
The main function of red blood cells is to transport oxygen to tissues from the lungs and carbon dioxide out from the tissues to the lungs to breathed out of the body
What responsible for the transport of oxygen the body tissues and removal of carbon dioxide?
red blood cells
What is the difference between the two types of respiration?
Aerobic respiration and Anaerobic Respiration. Aerobic is respiring in the presence of oxygen Anaerobic is respiring in the absence of oxygen
How oxygen is passed from a red blood cell to an actively respiring muscle?
The oxygen passes through a bloodvessel called artery to an actively respiring muscle cell.
Does anaerobic respration means respiring without oxygen?
no
What are the reactants and products in a respiring cell?
oxygen + glucose = Carbon dioxide + water
What does the body do after oxygen debt rises?
It get back to normal by respiring more frequently.
How is breathing different from tissue respiration?
Breathing is the physical contraction of muscles such as the internal and external intercostals that draw air into and out of the lungs. Tissue respiration involves the tissues using Oxygen brought to them in the blood and respiring to produce CO2.
Why does plants respiring in an air tight bottle not die from a lack of oxygen?
Plants don't consume oxygen. They consume carbon dioxide.
Does partial pressure of oxygen increase during exercise?
You can consume up to ten times as much oxygen in exercise as at rest, and produce the same increase in CO2.
In what circumastances would a human start respiring anaerobically?
when a person hasn't got enough oxygen
Where do red blood cells drop off oxygen?
Red blood cells release their oxygen in the capillaries. The oxygen diffuses across the capillary wall to reach the body tissues.
How do tissues get the oxygen they need for energy production?
The tissues get oxygen from oxygenated blood supply for energy production.
Can you have hypoxia with a 100 percent oxygen content?
Hypoxia refers to the saturation of oxygen in tissues. If you are taking oxygen therapy, even with 100% oxygen, it is still possible for some tissues not to get the right amount of oxygen due to circulatory problems.
