PO2 in blood is the amount of gases in your blood. In medical terms, this is commonly called the Alveolar-arterial.

Which blood vessel has a Po2 of 104 mm Hg?
Rather than a blood vessel with a value of 104mm Hg for Po2, it is alveolar gas thatt has a Po2 of 104 mm Hg
Is the pO2 of blood in the pulmonary arteries is greater in the alveoli?
No, firstly pO2 is not a particularly good term for the measurement of oxygen within the blood as most of it is tied up in the heamoglobin molecules and as such is not part od the pO2. Secondly the pulmonary artery is the artery that carried deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs where they gain oxygen from the alveolar cavity. Under the laws of diffusion this means the pO2 in the alveoli must be higher than the "pO2" in the blood here, but even just common sense tells you that the oxygen levels in the blood here are very low as this is the whole point in the blood going to the lung.
How do you find the dissolved O2 content give plasma PO2 and Hb content?
PO2 can be estimate of dissolve O2,PO2 keep the oxygen on hemoglobin so if there is increase affinity of oxygen then required PO2 willbe low.each HB carry 20vol% O2 per 100ml of blood in a 100% saturation.if the dissolve oxygen become less then PO2 also become less in order to deliver more dissolve form to tissues.actua;;u ddissolve O2 at 100mmhg of PO2 is 0.3vol%/100ml of blood
Respiration is a chemical reaction used to?
it leads to normal ph of blood, regulate Pco2 and Po2 of blood.
What is Po2 gas?
PO2 IS THE OYGEN BLOOD LEVEL IN YOUR BODY (More specifically, pO2 is the partial pressure of oxygen in different parts of your body. For example, the partial pressure of oxygen (pO2) is higher in your lungs than it is in various tissues like muscles. Therefore, oxygen is absorbed in the lungs and dispersed through your muscles.)
What is hypoxic threshold?
When the aterial PO2 drops and becomes around 60 to 70 mm Hg, an increase in ventilation occurs. This is caused by a low PO2 in the blood and is detected by the carotid bodies (chemoreceptor), because the aortic and central chemoreceptors do not detect a change in arterial PO2
Exchange of gases in the lungs?
blood entering the lungs has a partial pressure of oxygen (PO2) of 40 mmHg and a partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) of 46 mmHg; alveoli, on the other hand, have a PO2 of 105 mmHg and a PCO2 of 40 mmHg. As the blood moves past the alveoli, oxygen and carbon dioxide will diffuse down their respective partial pressure gradients. Oxygen will move from the alveolar space (PO2 of 105 mmHg) to the blood stream (PO2 of 40 mmHg). Carbon dioxide will move from the blood (PCO2 of 46 mmHg) to the alveolar space (PCO2 of 40 mmHg). As the blood leaves the alveolus, the PO2 and PCO2 will have essentially equilibrated with the alveolar air.
What is the normal PO2 and PCO2 in mixed venous blood returning to the lungs?
PvO2 = 40mm Hg, PvCO2 = 46mmHg
What would be the pH of a solution when H3PO4 equals H2PO4?
Assuming the Ka= [H+][PO2-]/[PO3-] and that PO3=PO2- then we can safely assume Ka= [H+][PO2-]/[PO2-] and so Ka= [H+][PO2-]/[PO2-] Ka=[H+] since the Ka of Phosphoric acid is equal to 7.5x10-3 then we can take -log(7.5x10-3) to find the pH=2.12
Explain the way anatomical shunt through the bronchial circulation causes an PO2 difference between alveolar gas and arterial blood.?

Blood gases show pH is 7.23 pCO2 is 38 pO2 is 77 HCO3- is 12 what is the patient suffering from?
Metabolic acidosis
What is physiological shunt?
Is a mixtures of oxygenated blood with some deoxygenated blood. It results in reduction of arterial PO2 by 2mmHg and reduction of arterial oxygen saturation by 0.5% compared to oxygenated blood coming from alveolar capillaries
