You can not get "High" from CO2. What happens when you inhale CO2 is pretty much your brain shutting down from oxygen being replaced by carbon dioxide. Your body stops functioning to the point of unconsciousness, if you inhale pure CO2 you can die and/or go into a coma after several minutes.

How does the brain detect high co2 levels?

The brain detects high CO2 levels in the blood through specialized chemoreceptors called central chemoreceptors, located in the medulla oblongata. These receptors are sensitive to changes in the pH of the cerebrospinal fluid caused by high levels of CO2, triggering an increase in ventilation to remove excess CO2 from the body.


What organelles take up CO2 and give off O2 in plant cells?

Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for taking up CO2 and producing O2 in plant cells through the process of photosynthesis. Within the chloroplasts, the green pigment chlorophyll absorbs light energy to drive this reaction.


What is the function of CO2 snuffing system?

The CO2 snuffing system is designed to rapidly reduce oxygen levels in enclosed spaces to suppress fires by displacing oxygen. This helps to prevent combustion by cutting off the oxygen supply to the fire.


How can high levels of CO2 in the environment contribute to causing headaches in individuals?

High levels of CO2 in the environment can contribute to causing headaches in individuals by reducing the amount of oxygen available for the brain, leading to decreased cognitive function and increased blood flow to compensate, which can result in headaches.


How do you demonstrate the use or consumption of Co2 by a plant?

One way is to put them in a closed container of known volume, like a bell jar, and measure the amount of oxygen consumed or the carbon dioxide given off. ---------------- It's the other way around. Plants take in CO2 and gives off O2. Place a plant in a closed system with a sensitive CO2 meter inside and another outside the container. The difference in the readings would be the CO2 that was used by the plant. Oxygen meters would tell you how much oxygen is given off. The formula for photosynthesis is: 2n CO2 + 2n H2O + photons→ 2(CH2O)n+ 2n O2carbon dioxide + water + light energy → carbohydrate + oxygen

Place where blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2?

The blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2 in the tissues where oxygen is delivered and CO2 is produced as a byproduct of cellular metabolism.

What does give off co2 mean?

"Give off CO2" means releasing carbon dioxide into the air as a byproduct of a chemical reaction or biological process.


Why is the partial pressure of CO2 in your cells high compared to elsewhere?

The high partial pressure of CO2 in cells is due to the fact that cells produce CO2 as a byproduct of metabolism. This CO2 diffuses out of cells into the bloodstream where it is carried to the lungs for removal. In contrast, the environment outside of cells has a lower concentration of CO2, resulting in a concentration gradient that drives the movement of CO2 out of the cells.


Can you get brain damage from high levels of co2?

The brain and lungs continually use an O2-CO2 feedback mechanism. High CO2 in the body triggers us to breathe. High CO2 in the air, however, eventually cause us to stop breathing after period of deceased oxygen. This causes brain damage and can cause organ damage.
