Question
Answer
Henry's Law   the mass of a gas that dissolves in a fluid at a given temp varies in direct proportion to the pressure of the gas over the liquid  
🗑
2 factors that affect the rate of gas diffusion into a fluid:   1) the pressure differential between the gas above the fluid and the gas dissolved in the fluid2)the solubility of the gas  
🗑
2 factors that impair gas transfer capacity at the pulmonary-capillary membrane in pulmonary disease:   1) buildup of a pollutant layer that thickens the alveolar membrane2) reduction in alveolar surface area  
🗑
2 ways that blood carries oxygen:   1) in physical dilution dissolved in the fluid portion of blood2) loose combo with hemoglobin  
🗑
cooperative binding   union of oxygen with hemoglobin  
🗑
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve   illustrates the saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen at various PO2 values  
🗑
volume percent   blood's oxygen content  
🗑
oxygen transport cascade   illustration that shows the oxygen partial pressure as oxygen moves from ambient air at sea level to the mitochondria of maximally active muscle tissue (pg. 284)  
🗑
arteriovenous oxygen difference   difference in the oxygen content of arterial blood and mixed venous blood  
🗑
Bohr effect   shifts in the dissociation curves of oxyhemoglobin due to any increase in plasma acidity and temp (curve shifts down and to the right...pg. 286)  
🗑
3 ways that blood carries carbon dioxide:   1) in physical solution in plasma (small amount)2) combined with hemoglobin in red blood cells3) as plasma bicarbonate  
🗑
carbonic anhydrase   a zinc-containing enzyme in the red blood cell that accelerates the union of CO2 and water (pg. 291)  
🗑
chloride shift   increases the Cl content of erythrocytes in venous blood more than in arterial red blood cells  
🗑
carbamino compounds   form when carbon dioxide reacts with amino acids in blood proteins  
🗑
Haldane effect   interaction between oxygen loading and carbon dioxide release that facilitates carbon dioxide removal in lung (pg. 292)  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
