Term
Average VC02 at rest
Definition
200ml/min
Term
When does C02 elimination begin?
Definition
during aerobic metabolism of cells
Term
C02 is transported in 3 forms, what are they?
Definition
1. dissolved, (10%) 2. bound to hemeoglobin and plasma proteins=carbino combounds (30%), 3. Bycarbonet Ion (HC03),(60%)
Term
where does C02 dissolve?
Definition
in the plasma and red blood cell
Term
dissolved C02 is proportional to....
Definition
PC02 and solubility
Term
Bound to hemeoglobin: What is the highest concentration of protein in the blood?
Definition
Hemeoglobin
Term
Bound to hemeoglobin: what is the highest concentration of protein in the plasma?
Definition
albuim
Term
Bound to hemeoglobin: proteins hemeoglobin and abuim are known as what type of compounds?
Definition
carbino compounds
Term
Hemeoglobin carries both 02 and C02 at _____ binding sites
Definition
different
Term
what is the bicarbonate (HC03) equation?
Definition
C02 + H20 <=> H2C03 <=> H+ + HC03
CA
CA = carbonic anhydrase, and can occur with or without this enzyme
Term
Is the Bicarbonate reaction slow or fast in the plasma?
Definition
slow, greater than 5 seconds
Term
Is the bicarbonate reacation slow or fast with the RBC? why
Definition
Fast because CA, C02 dissolved + H20 = H2C03
Term
Is CA present in plasma or intersitial fluid?
Definition
No
Term
Is CA ONlY located within the RBC?
Definition
Yes
Term
Is the bicarbonate faster on the second reaction without the CA enzyme?
Definition
Yes
Term

Definition
C02
Term
Which curve is steeper 02 or C02?
Definition
C02
Term
How much does C02 increase during exercise?
Definition
6x
