What is the relationship between the muscular and respiratory systems?
The respiratory system carries oxygenated blood to muscles to allow them to function
How does increased ventilation rate affect arterial blood?
It will induce a respiratory alkalosis, as carbon dioxide is washed out of the blood by the increased ventilation rate.
Is there a relationship between blood type and disease?
Yes, certain diseases are tied to blood type. This does not mean that if you have a certain blood type that you will develop these diseases. It does, however, mean that you are likely at a somewhat increased risk due to your blood type.
Why cold water could bring blood pressure down?
When your extremities are exposed to cold temperatures the body protects core temperature by cutting off blood circulation to that limb. This decrease in blood circulation to the area causes increased respiratory rate, increased muscular tension which leads to shivering, increased heart rate, and increased blood pressure.
What is the result when the pressure in the ventricles rises higher than the pressure in the atria?
Increased pressure in the ventricles means the heart has increased stress pumping blood to the respiratory system/ body.
What system exchanges of gases between atmosperic air and blood?
The respiratory system is responsible for the exchange of gases between the atmosphere and the blood.
Levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood trigger the respiratory center?
Primarily it is the cabon dioxide levels that trigger respiratory drive, however in some disease states such as COPD increased oxygen levels can decrease respiratory drive.
Where does the exchange of respiratory gases take place between a mother's blood and the blood of her fetus?
Placenta
What system exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide between the blood and air?
The respiratory
What is the system that provides gas exchange between the blood and the air?
Respiratory system
What human organ system exchange gases between the blood and the environment?
RespiratoryOrgans of the respiratory system: nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, alveoli
Distinguish between acidosis and alkalosis resulting from respiratory and metabolic factors?
If the patient's pH goes down, the patient will become acidotic. Their pH goes down when their CO2 in their blood is increased. If their pH does up, they will become alkadotic. This is caused by the direct relationship between bicarbonate (HCO3) and pH. If their bicarbonate levels rise their pH will rise also. Hope that helps.
