When matter is subjected to the conditions necessary to create plasma it disrupts molecular bonds. Since CO2 has oxygen atoms bonded to the carbon, when it is ionized into plasma, the bonds will be disrupted and the plasma will contain separate carbon and oxygen atoms. A very small fraction of the CO2 might persist as molecular ions but most of them would be CO ions, not the full CO2.

Carbon dioxide is dissolved in the plasma and carried to the lungs where it is expelled while oxygen attaches to the red blood cells and carried throughout the body.

What carries gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide?
plasma has a little
How do you get the same amount of oxygen to dissolve in plasma as carbon dioxide you would have to?
Increase partial pressure of oxygen
What transports oxygen and carrys away some carbon dioxide?
plasma
How is the movement of oxygen in the body similar to and different to the movement of carbon dioxide?
So the movement of oxygen in the body is different to the movement of carbon dioxide as while oxygen enters the red blood cells during this movement the carbon dioxide stays out. It stays in the plasma. Also for the movement of carbon dioxide to happen oxygen is needed. Its a product of aerobic respiration. The movement of oxygen in the body is similar to the movement of carbon dioxide as both processes require respiration and pass through the walls of the capillaries.
Where are carbon dioxide and oxygen found in our environment?
At room temperature carbon dioxide (CO2) is a gas; of course this gas can be liquefied or solidified. At room temperature oxygen (O) is a gas; of course this gas can be liquefied or solidified. Oxygen has a diatomic molecule, O2. An allotropic form is ozone, O3. All gases exist also in cylinders, as compressed gases, under high pressure. Also the purity is variable, depending on the scope of use.
Why carbon dioxide can not mix in blood?
Carbon dioxide is highly soluble in water and blood plasma. 900 ml/ liter carbon dioxide is soluble in water as against 4 ml/ liter of Oxygen. So this question would have been about oxygen instead of carbon dioxide.
Does the CNS respiration center analyze oxygen levels of blood?
Oxygen is very sparingly soluble. Carbon dioxide is highly soluble in water or plasma. The respiratory center is stimulated by high level of the carbon dioxide. The respiratory center probably does not analyse the oxygen level.
Oxygen and carbon dioxide move easily through most areas of cell membranes because they are soluble in what?
lipids.
Do oxygen and carbon dioxide readily dissolve in plasma?
no co2 is more readily dissolved in water than oxygen and blood along with plasma is formed of water so co2 is more readily soluble in plasma compared to o2
What carries gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide?
plasma has a little
Name two gases found in plasma?
The carbon dioxide and oxygen are the two main gases in plasma. When blood travels to the lungs the concentration of these two gases changes.
Why is an increase in carbon dioxide and not the decrease in oxygen in blood a powerful respiratory stimulant?
Yes. It is so. Deficiency of oxygen do not have as powerful stimulus for breathing. Carbon bi oxide is very much soluble in plasma water. In normal temperature and pressure about 900 mi of carbon bi oxide is soluble in water. Oxygen is sparingly soluble. Only about 4 ml/liter of oxygen is dissolved in water. So the respiratory center would recognize slight change in concentration of carbon bi oxide as it changes the pH of plasma also. As it is soluble in plasma it can readily enter the respiratory center cells and stimulate the center. Increase in carbon bi oxide and decrease in oxygen go hand in hand. The volume of oxygen consumed is exactly equal to the carbon bi oxide. So Nature has selected more than 200 times soluble carbon bi oxide as aindicatoras against sparingly soluble oxygen.
Two gases found in plasma?
Blood plasma has both oxygen and carbon dioxide dissolved in it.
Through what structure does water oxygen and carbon dioxide can enter a cell?
Water, carbon dioxide and oxygen can enter a cell through the plasma membrane.
What gases are found in blood plasma?
All gases are soluble to some extent in blood plasma, so even oxygen which is bound by hemoglobin in the red cells is present. More commonly there is nitrogen, the predominant gas in the atmosphere. This is the cause of the bends when a sudden decrease in pressure causes nitrogen to bubble out of the plasma (similar to the way C02 bubbles out of soda when you open the bottle).
Gas is carried mostly by the plasma?
Gas is carried mostly by the plasma in the blood. The plasma contains dissolved gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, which are transported to different parts of the body. Oxygen is transported from the lungs to the tissues, while carbon dioxide is carried from the tissues back to the lungs for elimination.
What process does oxygen and carbon dioxide use to cross the plasma membrane?
diffusion
