What happens to pCO2 levels as the disease (Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis) progresses, and what would the teeter totter look like in this situation?CO2+ H2O ⇌ H2CO3 ⇌ H++ HCO3−
a) How much more O2 can be transported by the blood when erythrocytesleave the lungs? Consider that a normal adult has a concentration of 15 g hemoglobin/100 mL of bloodand that the hemoglobin is 98% saturated with O2 at the usual pO2 of 100 torr in the lung at sea level.
b) On the basis of the graph, explain how myoglobin facilitates the diffusion of O2 through muscle cells. Would myoglobin be effective as an O2-transport protein in cells of other tissues? Explain.

Hb Kempsey is unable to transition between the R and T states 3. Hb Kempsey demonstrates cooperative binding of oxygen. 4. Hb Kempsey's curve could be explained by a loss of nearly all the cooperative interactions between the subunits. 5.

What lind of information can be learned about the differences between the curves?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements regarding the transport of oxygen by hemoglobin is correct?

Hence, explain how this influences the quaternary structure of the haemoglobin molecule, and how this helps haemoglobin to transport O2 from the lungs to the muscles.arrow_forwardIn the text, we learned that BPG is abundantly present in erythrocytes to greatly reduce the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen.
