In Rest a normal human (65 Kgs Body Weight) will need 250ml/min. of oxygen.

Depending on the activity the body might consume 15 times as much oxygen as it needs in rest.

Does epinephrine decrease myocardial oxygen demand?

Yes, epinephrine can decrease myocardial oxygen demand by increasing coronary perfusion, improving cardiac output, and reducing systemic vascular resistance. However, high doses of epinephrine may increase myocardial oxygen demand due to its positive inotropic and chronotropic effects.


What is TOD BOD in water quality measurement?

There are three OD's used Total Oxygen Demand (TOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) They all measure the amount of oxygen that would be required to consume organic material in the water, BOD is the lowest (usually) as it measures demand from microbes eating easily digested organics (sugars etc), COD measures the demand from all other organics (alcohols etc) measured by digesting the material in strong chemical oxidants, and TOD is the total of the two. Oxygen demand is important to know in waste handling as reducing the oxygen in receiving stream can harm fish and other aquatic life.


What is biological oxygen demand?

It determines the amount of dissolved oxygen that is consumed by aerobic biological microorganisms in water. It is measured by the amount of oxygen that is consumed per liter of sample during 5 days of incubation it is in milligrams.


Which element is one of the most abundant elements found in the human body and earths crust and the earths atmosphere and in the ocean?

By mass Oxygen


What is the human body mostly made of a carbon oxygen nitrogen and hydrogen b oxygen calcium carbon and hydrogen c hydrogen iron nitrogen and oxygen?

The human body is made up of only mostly carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. The top four elements are oxygen, carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen, so that would be a. on your list.

Is oxygen found in the human brain?

Yes. In fact, such is the brain's demand for oxygen that it requires 20% of your total oxygen supply. This explains why it is served by so many blood vessels.


What is the different between biochemical oxygen demand and biological oxygen demand?

Oxygen Demand -The amount of oxygen require to oxidize an organic materialBiochemical (Biological) Oxygen Demand (BOD) -The amount of oxygen required to oxidized any organic matter present in the water by microbes present in the water. Usually representin the easily "digestible" organics.Chemical Oxygen Demand (CO) - The amount of oxidants experessed as oxygen required to consume all organics in a water sampleTotal Oxygen Demand (TOD) the sum of COD and BODBiological Oxygen demand is the oxygen required to oxidized only organic matter by micro organisms (it is basically a prototype of actual process happening in treatment plant) while chemical oxygen demand is the oxygen consumed to oxidize all organic and inorganic matter and it employ chemicals to do this process that why it is way more fast then BOD experiment .


Why is there a demand for chemical oxygen?

There is a very large demand for chemical oxygen. Chemical oxygen is very sought after because it can be used to determine when water is contaminated with pollutants.


What is mean chemical oxygen demand-?

The mean oxygen demand is the test done to indirectly determine the amount of organic compounds present in a water sample.

What is it called when you demand oxygen to muscles?

A yawn


What is a biological oxygen demand?

A biological oxygen demand is another term for a biochemical oxygen demand - the amount of oxygen needed by aerobic microorganisms to decompose all the organic matter in a sample of water - used as a measure of pollution.


What happens in your muscle tissue and cells when the demand of oxygen is not met?

If the demand for oxygen is not met for a long period of time, the cells within the muscle tissue will die.


How does the temperature of water effect the dissolved oxygen?

Well, dissolved oxygen impacts water quality because if the level of the dissolved oxygen is too low then organisms can die. _________________________________________________________________ That is okay, but I want to what dissolved oxygen tests for. ------ For the water quality are tested: - total oxygen demand (TOD) - biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) - chemical oxygen demand (COD) - sometimes, carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBOD) For details about the analytical procedures I recommend you to read a book or a collection of analytical methods for water, searching in a library or searching on the Internet.


What is the important role of oxygen in the human body?

Oxygen plays a massive role in the human body. Oxygen is responsible for delivering nutrients to the cells in the human body.


What is the principle of chemical oxygen demand?

Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is a labortory test to give a measure of the amount of reactive organic materials in a sample of water. Like the five day Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5) it demonstrates the amount of organics present by how much oxygen they consume over a period of carefully controlled conditions (the starting and ending oxidant concentrations are measured and the temperature is controlled)


Will atenolol increase the myocardial oxygen demand?

No, atenolol is a beta blocker that works by decreasing the heart rate and blood pressure, thereby reducing the myocardial oxygen demand.
