| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Daltons law | law of partial pressure- the partial pressure of a gas in a mixture of gasses is directly related to the concentration of that gas in the mixture and to the total pressure of the mixture |
| Four factors that determine the amount of oxygen that defuses into blood | oxygen pressure gradient between alveolar air an blood, the total functional surface ara of the respiratory membrane, the respiratory minute volume and alveolar ventilation |
| Bohr effect | increased Pco2 decreases the affinity between oxygen and hemoglobin |
| Haldane effect | increased carbon dioxide loading caused by a decrease in PO2 |
| fluid conten | Ranges from 45-75% of total weight, varies according to age gender weight and fat content |
| Water leave the body via | urine, respiration, sweat and feces |
| Starlings law of capillaries | the control mechanism for water exchange between plasma and interstitial fluid consists of four types of pressure, two on one side of a capillary membrane and two onto he other side. |
| sodium-potassium pump | maintains high concentration of sodium ions outside the cells and high concentration potassium inside the cells |
| body pH | 7.35-7.45 |
| Acidosis | pH less than 7.35 |
| Alkalosis | pH more than 7.45 |
