To discuss:
The Haldane effect that alters the loading of CO2 with respect to the metabolic rates of individual tissues.
Introduction:
Respiration, also known as breathing is a process where oxygen (O2) is inhaled by the lungs and transported to the tissues by erythrocytes for cellular

- HIF1 and HIF2 promote survival in hypoxia through two mechanisms. First, they induce expression of angiogenic genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), in order to increase the blood supply to reoxygenate the tissue. Second, they promote metabolic reprogramming in order to maintain ATP supplies while limiting damaging electron loss from the electron transport chain.

- definition and example of each, explain what is meant by the terms aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Analyse where in the muscle cell aerobic and anaerobic metabolism takes place and explain the relationship between the following structures (cell cytoplasm, mitochondria, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain).arrow_forwardIn nature, there are some organisms that are unable to perform aerobic respiration in the presence of oxygen. What could be the possible reason(s) behind this phenomenon? (Answe in 120 words, 5 reasons would be helpful) Thanksarrow_forwardA crocodile, which can remain underwater without breathing for up to 1 hour drowns its air-breathing prey, then dines at its leisure. An adaptation that aids the crocodile in doing so is that it can utilize virtually 100% of the O2 in its blood whereas humans, for example, can only extract about 65% of the O2 in their blood. Crocodile Hb does not bind BPG. However, crocodile deoxyHb preferentially binds HCO3-. How does this help the crocodile obtain its dinner? Please help explain why/if this is the answer, thank you! As CO2 concentrations increase so will the concentration of HCO3-. The HCO3- preferentially binds to the crocodile's deoxyhemoglobin, which allosterically prompts the hemoglobin to assume the deoxy conformation and thus release its O2.arrow_forward
- Where is CO2 produced in aerobic cell respirationarrow_forward(No more than one page). Explain why quaternary structure is necessary for cooperativity and allosteric regulation. Use hemoglobin as an example. Include the various allosteric effectors that influence oxygen binding.arrow_forwardComparison of Fetal and Maternal Hemoglobins.Studies of oxygen transport in pregnant mammals show that the O2-saturation curves of fetal and maternal blood are markedly different when measured under the same conditions. Fetal erythrocytes contain a structural variant of hemoglobin, HbF, consisting oftwo a and two g subunits (α2γ2), whereas maternal erythrocytes contain HbA (α2β2). a)Which hemoglobin has a higher affinity for oxygen under physiological conditions, HbA or HbF? Explain. b)What is the physiological significance of the different O2 affinities? c)When all the BPG is carefully removed from samples of HbA and HbF, the measured O2-saturation curves (and consequently the O2affinities) are displaced to the left. However, HbA now has a greater affinity for oxygen than does HbF. When BPG is reintroduced, the O2-saturation curves return to normal, as shown in the graph. What is the effect of BPG on the O2affinity of hemoglobin? How can the above information be used…arrow_forward
