Repiratory System Functions Exchange of gases between the blood and air (Delivers oxygen (O2) to the cells and removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the cells; Functions with the circulatory system (External repiration and Internal respiration)
External repiration O2 from the air enters teh bloodstream in the lungs; CO2 leaves the bloodstream and enters the cells
Internal respiration O2 leaves the bloodstream and enters the cells; CO2 from the cells enters the bloodstream
Repiratory System Functions - Gas Exchange Transport Normal External Respiration, Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Transport, Partial Pressure of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide
Normal External Respiration O2 and CO2 diffuse through the walls of alveoli (go from area of higher concentration to lower); O2 goes into the oxygen poor capillaries; CO2 goes from capillaries into CO2 poor alveoli.
Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Transport Hemoglobin and O2 bind to create oxyhemoglobin; Hemoglobin bound to CO2 is carbaminohemoglobin (20% is carried as carbaminohemoglobin and 70% of CO2 is transported as bicarbonate ion (HCO3) and this is what is tested in your serum or plasma)
Partial Pressure of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide 1. Pressure exerted by one gas in a mixture (partial pressure of oxygen is PO2 and partial pressure of carbon dioxide is PCO2). 2. O2 combines with Hgb in the lungs where PO2 is increased and is released in the tissues where PO2 is decreased.
Partial Pressure of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide (Continued) 3. CO2 combines with Hgb in the tissues with PCO2 is released in the lungs where PCO2 is decreased.
Acid-Base (pH) Balance - Acidosis Increased CO2 causes decreased pH; Body responds by increasing respiration (Hyperventilation)
Acid-Base (pH) Balance - Alkalosis Decreased CO2 caused by hyperventilation; Decreased CO2 causes increased pH
