What are the symptoms of high CO2 levels?
what is considered high levels of co2
Can high Co2 levels cause a stroke?
yes and strock can cause high co2
Does the breathing control center in the brain monitor the rising CO2 levels in the blood?
Quite so. The brain stem detects high levels of carbon dioxide and triggers breathing.
What is the relationship between increased blood carbon dioxide respiratory rate and depth?
CO2 is the primary cvontrol for rate of breathing (not oxygen as many would expect). High levels of CO2 are very toxid to the tissues of the body and os it was allowed to remain in the blood most of these tissues would die off. And so sensors within the blood systmem detect the CO2 levels and stimulate faster deeper breathing if thesae elvels are to high for safety.
What does CO2 blood level of 31 mean?
CO2 regulates the body breathing functions. The normal range is 23 to 32. A level of 31 is within the normal range. High levels of CO2 could indicate a breathing problem.
Place where blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2?
veins
When blood CO2 levels increase does the pH increase or decrease?
It decreases.
What are bodily symptoms of increased CO2 levels?
Increase in confusion, and finally loss of consciousness, coma and death (with high enough CO2 levels).
How does the pH in the blood change with an increase in the level of CO2?
An increase in blood CO2 levels will result in an increase in carbonic acid formation, and therefore lower the pH.
What kind of blood does lungs have?
Same blood as everywhere else. The difference is the gases in the blood: it enters the lungs low on oxygen and high in CO2, it leaves high in oxygen and low in CO2.
Explain what would happen to CO2 and nox if the co levels were high?
CO2 levels would go down because CO2 is an efficiency indicator and high co levels means it would be a rich condition so efficiency would be low and in a rich condition nox goes down
What does a high CO2 level indicate?
It means that the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood are increased usually causing a deficient level of oxygen. This condition can cause cells to die.
