The PCO2 in alveolar air is ....blood | Less than in the systemic venous, Equal to the systemic arterial |
The symbol HbNCOOH- is used for | carbaminohemoglobin |
Which of the following is not a means of transporting oxygen in the blood | Combined with bicarbonate ion (HCO3) |
By the time the blood leaves the lungs capillaries to return to the heart, what is the % of the blood's hemoglobin has united with oxygen | 97% |
The vital capacity is equal to the sum of the | Inspiratory reserve volume, tidal volume and expiratory reserve volume |
Standard atmospheric pressure is.......mm Hg | 760 |
The approximate partial pressure of oxygen at standard atmospheric pressure is about------mm Hg | 160 |
The major form by which carbon dioxide is transported in the circulatory system is | As bicarbonate ions |
The PCO2 in the atmosphere is | Less than in the alveolar air |
