Peripheral chemoreceptors increase firing with low arterial PO2 but are not sensitive to an increase in arterial PCO2.b. The primary stimulus to the central chemoreceptors is low arterial PO2.c. Peripheral chemoreceptors increase firing during a metabolic alkalosis.d. The increase in ventilation during exercise is due to a decrease in arterial PO2.e. Peripheral and central chemoreceptors both increase firing when arterial PCO2 increases.arrow_forwardwhen carbon dioxide travelling in the plasma reaches the alveolus and is exhaled, then what happens is that a. the volume of CO2 dissolved in the plasma would continue to drop until it reached zero b. the bicarbonate ion volume in the plasma would increase c. respiration would be stimulated and tidal volume would go up d. the CO2 attached onto the hemoglobin would release CO2 into the plasmaarrow_forward

- While a runner rests before a race, the hemoglobin in the blood returning to her heart is 75% saturated with O2 (that is, the blood is carrying about 75% of the maximum possible capacity to carry O2). While she is running, this percentage ... A. decreases because the partial pressure of O2 in her lung alveoli is reduced to below 40 mm Hg. B. decreases because the decreased PO2 in her muscles promotes O2 unloading in those tissues. C. stays the same because hemoglobin is usually 75% saturated with O2. D. increases because her muscles need more O2. E. increases because she is breathing harder.arrow_forwardDuring strenuous exercise, the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the right. This rightward shift reflects an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and favors loading of O2 onto hemoglobin in the lungsarrow_forwardIn internal respiration: A.
