Q

Temp

A

Increasing temperature decreases hemoglobin’s affinity for oxygen but reducing temperature increases it.
Globins tertiary structure are sensitive to temperature and can be altered to increase or decrease O2 affinity

Q

pH

A

A consequence of O2 binding to Hb is the release of protons (H+) to yield this equation:

Hb + O2 = Hb * O2 +H

Law of Mass Action.

Q

if low protons are coming from the reactions , low co2 low ph, low affinity

if produces a lot of co2, more acidic releasing o2, high ph high affinity

Q

2,3- BPG

A

High oxyhemaglobin inhibits 2,3-BPG production
Low oxyhemaglobin induces 2,3-BPG production and lowers the affinity of Hb to oxygen
Promotes O2 unloading

11
Q

Low 2,3 BPG

A

High oxygen demand in that location. So, lots of glycolysis is happening

Q

Three Forms of Carbon Dioxide Transport in the Blood

A

Dissolved in the blood (5%)
As bicarbonate (87%)
As carbaminohemoglobin (8%)

As Co2 is removed from the body moves from high pressure to low presure, the bicarbonate increases. The body needs to keep this process going

Q

Important Players in the Control of Breathing:

A

Medulla Oblongata and Pons
Chemoreceptors
Central chemoreceptors
Peripheral chemoreceptors
Pulmonary Receptors

17
Q

high co2 lots of biocarbonate reactions high protons

18
Q

Chemoreceptors

A

Peripheral Chemoreceptors are rapid-acting
Central chemoreceptors are activated more slowly, but have a more prolonged effect, are the most important in regulating long-term breathing rate.

19
Q

Pulmonary Receptors:

A
  1. Irritant receptors that detect irritants, smoke, etc. will stimulate coughing
  2. Pulmonary stretch receptors
    Stimulate Hering-Breuer reflex
    Prevent over-stretching of the lungs during stress or exercise
    Activated by stretch, inhibit respiratory control centers, making further inspiration difficult.
