Three reasons why save sperm whales?
becuase of the whales co2 tolerant blood and becuase of lactic acid fermentation, whales (like the sperm whale) are able to eat deep sea squid and fish.
How might being able to dive into very deep water be an advantage for whales?
Because of the whale's CO2 tolerant blood and because of lactic acid fermentation, whales (like the sperm whale) are able to dive down deep to eat deep sea squid and fish. Scource: I'm learning this at one of the best high schools in the USA
Is the CO2 in blood considered acidic or basic?
The CO2 in blood is considered acidic.
Which form of CO2 transport accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood?
Physically dissolved CO2 accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood. The majority of CO2 is carried in the blood as bicarbonate ions and carbaminohemoglobin.
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 happens when you have dirty blood?
it is blood that has co2
Does hyperventilation raise or lower blood sugar blood CO2 concentration?
does nothing to blood sugar, and lowers co2 to almost nothing.
What form of CO2 transport accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood?
Dissolved CO2 accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood, with only about 5-10% of CO2 carried this way. The majority of CO2 in the blood is transported as bicarbonate ions and carbamino compounds bound to hemoglobin.
How would the movement of CO2 be affected if the concentration of CO2 in the lungs was equal or higher than the concentration in the blood?
If the concentration of CO2 in the lungs was higher or equal the concentration in the blood, there will be no diffusion of CO2 in the air of the lungs. The person will suffocate in this situation.
Oxygen diffuse into the blood at the alveoli?
Carbon dioxide does.
Where is CO2 carried from and to?
It is diffused from the blood into the alveolar cavaity.
What is co2 blood level?
CO2 in the blood stream can be measured from bicarbonate in the blood or pCO2 (partial pressure). Normal CO2 measured from bicarbonate is 22-28 mEq/L Normal pCO2 is 35-45 mmHg
