You are told that one teenager in a room with nine healthy teenagers of the same age, weight, etc is suffering from a genetic disease resulting in a low (but not zero) level of complex 1 of the respiratory chain. Since you must hurry to catch a plane for a medical conference, you only have 40 minutes to determine which of the ten persons has the deficiency of complex 1. Therefore you…. Have everyone hold their breath as long as possible and observe what happens. Have everyone drink two beers and observe what happens Have everyone go to asleep and observe what happens Have everyone run around the block as fast as possible and observe what happens

Hello, May I get help on this question very soon please? I do not understand it. Question: You're talking to one of your grandparents on the phone, and they are telling you about some really neat things they just learned about the lungs on a documentary. Specifically, they are telling you about this really cool feedback loop where lower in CO2 in the blood in near skeletal muscles than usual to leads your brain to trigger a whole bunch of responses in how you breathe. They mention about how your medulla tells your systemic arterioles to constrict, for your external intercostals to contract less, and your lung muscles to contract less. You tell them how much you love to hear that they are learning about the respiratory system, but you gently note that the documentary must have got one thing wrong. The documentary was incorrect because (see image)
A 9-year-old girl presents to your pharmacy. Her mother tells you that the child has been generally healthy; however, she does seem to become excessively winded when she plays soccer or any other sports. The patient agrees with her mother, telling you that she never feels like she can play as long as the other children because it becomes hard to breathe. You see that her physician has ordered an inhaler for her that will produce bronchodilation via the stimulation of adrenergic receptors on the smooth muscle of the bronchioles. What type of drug below would likely be in this inhaler?
Hemoglobin is essential for oxygen transmission why?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colourless, odourless gas that result from the burning of hydrocarbons, such as in a poorly functioning furnace or vehicle emissions. CO can bind with hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin. Hemoglobin's affinity for CO is 200 times greater than its affinity for oxygen. The initial symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are flu-like, such as dizziness, headache and vomiting. However, when left unchecked, CO poisoning can result in unconsciousness, loss of blood flow to the vital organs and, eventually, death. (Source: Bleecker, M.L. (2015). Carbon Monoxide Intoxication. Handbook of Clinical Neurology. Elsevier B.V.) 5. Name the gases normally carried by hemoglobin in the body. Using your knowledge of the circulatory and respiratory systems, provide a possible explanation for the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning.
In the text, we learned that BPG is abundantly present in erythrocytes to greatly reduce the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen. When 2,3-BPG binds to deoxyhemoglobin, it acts to stabilize the low oxygen affinity state (T state) of the oxygen carrier. What would happen to hemoglobin if the BPG were removed? Would our body still be able to efficiently deliver oxygen to the tissues?
what would be the consequences of a deficiency of haemoglobin in our bodies?
ㅂ 분 20 4 3 2 U Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid obtained from a 34-year-old healthy volunteer is found to contain elastase. The enzyme is most likely derived from which of the following cells? A. Type I pneumocytes B. Type Il pneumocytes C. Clara cells D. Alveolar macrophages E. Goblet cells F. Ciliated epithelium
You are studying with a friend who is describing the Bohr effect. She tells you that in the lungs, hemoglobin binds oxygen and releases hydrogen ion; as a result, the pH increases. She goes on to say that in actively metabolizing muscle tissue, hemoglobin releases oxygen and binds hydrogen ion and, as a result, the pH decreases. Do you agree with her reasoning? Why or why not?
Mark any/all that are allosteric regulators of oxygen binding to hemoglobin. Group of answer choices 2,3-BPG H+ CO2
Which of the following statements are TRUE: Very low oxygen levels will cause: a) Myoglobin instead of hemeglobin will be used to transfer oxygen to cells b) You might experience feelings similar to sickle-cell anemia c) You might have a higher total concentration of hemeglobin to help transport enough oxygen. d) Oxygen will be more concentrated in the air, resulting in higher saturation of hemeglobin
Bicarbonate (HCO3) also moves through the CFTR protein into the fluid lining the airway. People with CF cannot move HCO3 as effectively, which causes the pH of the fluid lining the airway to become more acidic. A lower pH of the airway fluid has been shown to impact the ability of immune cells to function properly and may explain why people with CF have high rates of bacterial infections. This relationship between HCO3, pH, and infection is still being investigated and is not totally understood or agreed upon by scientists.
