Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Transport — Flashcards

_____ in 2,3-BPG cause the O2-hemoglobin dissociation curve to shift to the left

_____ in Pco2 cause the O2-hemoglobin dissociation curve to shift to the right

The oxygen-Hb dissociation curve is roughly flat when the Po2 is between _____ and 100 mmHg

Transport of CO is diffusion limited because of the high affinity of CO to _____, thus preventing rise in the partial pressure of CO

Factors that shift the O2-Hb dissociation curve to the _____ favor the taut form of hemoglobin

O2 is carried in blood in two forms: _____ (2%) or bound to hemoglobin (98%)

Shifts of the O2-Hb dissociation curve to the _____ occurs when there is increased affinity of hemoglobin for O2

_____ O2 binding to hemoglobin causes increased affinity for CO2 and H+ (Haldane effect)

The graph given below shows _____ _____thoracic obstruction

Hint: variable/fixed

The graph given depicts the _____ effect
