- Describe how CO2 is a measure of respiration. Explain why temperature might affect the rate of respiration.arrow_forwardIV. Concept Mapping Fill in the blanks to complete this concept map outlining the basic physiołogical concepts of respiration. Some terms are used more than once. carbon dioxide hydrogen ion hyperventilation PH BREATHING PATTERNS Normal breathing Rebreathing blood blood Causes a Couses or in blood in blood Which results in. Which resuits :narrow_forwardCarbon dioxide concentrations are increasing in the atmosphere. Explain how this can lead to either a positive feedback loop (whereby carbon dioxide concentrations continue to increase) or a negative feedback loop (whereby carbon concentrations begin to decrease). Be specific in describing the steps of the feedback loop, and be sure to indicate whether it is a positive or negative loop.arrow_forward
- A.) Given a choice of inhaling NO or eating some oxide of N (e.g. nitrites).Which one would you rather prefer? Choose the answer from the following options. a. NOb. Nitritesc. Nitratesd. Neither Explanation pleasearrow_forwarda)Draw a flow chart or diagram to illustrate how oxygen would move from the air into the body cells and how carbon dioxide would be removed. b)What is the end result of cellular respiration and why is this important in the body?arrow_forwardDepletion of which gas in the atmosphere can lead to an increased incidence of skin cancer?arrow_forward
- What are the stages in carbon dioxide fixation (choose all that applies)? Conversion of unstable six-carbon compound to a stable five-carbon compound. Hydrolysis of enediolate intermediate to 3-phosphoglycerate and two molecules of CO2. Hydrolysis of unstable six-carbon compound to two molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate. Condensation of the CO2 molecule with the enediolate intermediate. Conversion of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate into an enediolate intermediate.arrow_forwardDiscuss the regulation on respiration by explaining the picture below. Make it as brieg and concise as possible.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is false? a) DPG is an allosteric inhibitor of oxygen binding to HB. b) Smokers have a very low level of DPG so that oxygen can easily bind to HB. c) Concentration of DPG increases at high altitudes. d) DPG makes oxygen binding to HB difficult.arrow_forward
