Summary Introduction

To complete: The given map to review some of the concepts of gas exchange.

Introduction:

The respiratory system is a biological system that ensures the transport of air by the process of inhalation and exhalation, that is, in and out the body with the help of the lungs.

Answer to Problem 1CC

Fig.1 shows the completed map to review some of the concepts of gas exchange.

Pictorial representation: Some of the concepts related to gas exchange are presented in the concept map given in Fig.1.

CAMPBEL BIOLOGY:CONCEPTS & CONNECTIONS, Chapter 22, Problem 1CC

Fig.1: Concepts of gas exchange.

Explanation of Solution

a.

Correct answer: Respiratory surface.

For gas exchange to occur, the respiratory surface should be thin and moist. Hence, the correct answer is the respiratory surface.

b.

Correct answer: Circulatory system.

Gas exchange relies on the circulatory system as the exchanged oxygen and carbon dioxide travel in the blood to the heart and different body cells. Hence, the correct answer is the circulatory system.

c.

Correct answer: Lungs

It is the main organ for the exchange of gases consisting of air sacs that carry out gaseous exchange and the blood carries the exchanged gas to the tissue cells. Hence, the correct answer is the lungs.

d.

Correct answer: Hemoglobin.

Hemoglobin is a blood pigment present inside the red blood cell, which helps in the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide by binding with it and also maintains the pH of the blood. Hence, the correct answer is hemoglobin.

e.

Correct answer: Cellular respiration.

In cellular respiration, oxygen is used to convert glucose into carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of ATP. Hence, the correct answer is cellular respiration.

f.

Correct answer: Negative pressure breathing.

This type of breathing is regulated by the “breathing control center of the brain”. In negative pressure breathing, the air pressure inside the lungs drops during the contraction of the diaphragm, and the lower portion of the chest cavity rises; this allows the movement of air from outside to inside. Hence, the correct answer is negative pressure breathing.

g.

Correct answer: Oxygen.

Hemoglobin pigment in the blood binds with the oxygen present in the lungs, and this oxygen is utilized to form energy. Hence, the correct answer is oxygen.

Consider modeling the concentration of a chemical in a lung using the table below.Fill in the missing values and calculate the concentration at time t = 1 if the starting concentration is   c0 = 0.11 mmol/L (millimoles per liter). Suppose the volume of the lung is V = 2.5 liters, the volume of air inhaled and exhaled in each breath is W =1.5 liters, and the ambient concentration of the surrounding air is a fixed 0.18 mmol/L.

The respiratory process involves hemoglobin (Hgb), an iron-containing compound found in red blood cells. In the process, carbon dioxide diffuses from tissue cells as molecular CO2, while O2 simultancously enters the tissue cells. A significant fraction of the CO, leaving the tissue cells enters red blood cells and reacts with hemoglobin; the CO, that does not enter the red blood cells (O in the figure below) remains dissolved in the blood and is transported to the lungs. Some of theCO, entering the red blood cells reacts with hemoglobin to form a compound (Hgb-CO, 2 in the figure). When the red blood cells reach the lungs, the Hgb-CO, dissociates, releasing free CO,. Meanwhile, the CO, that enters the red blood cells but does not react with hemoglobin combines with water to form carbonic acid, H¿CO3, which then dissociates into hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions (O in the figure). The bicarbonate ions diffuse out of the cells (O in the figure), and the ions are transported to the lungs…
Determine and report the pressure of collected hydrogen gas in atmospheres. Report this result to one more digit than allowed by applying the rules of significant figures. (1 atm = 760 mm Hg, an exact conversion factor.) Determine the moles of hydrogen collected by substituting the appropriate quantities into the ideal gas equation and solving. Report this result to one more digit than allowed by applying the rules of significant figures. Notes: the gas temperature is the same as the listed temperature; R = 0.082057 L-atm/mol-K. Be mindful of units. Determine the experimental atomic mass of Cu. Round this result to the correct number of significant figures. Determine the percent relative error (= ????????????−?h????????? ? 100). The molar mass of Cu is 63.546 g/mol. Mass of copper before electrolysis 6.008 g Mass of copper after electrolysis 5.860 g Volume of H2 collected 58.9 mL Pressure of H2, PH2 720.8 mm Hg Temperature 24.0 oC
