Question
Chapter 42, Problem 10TYU
Summary Introduction
To explain: The differences between fetal hemoglobin and adult hemoglobin.
Concept introduction:
Respiratory system exhibits a catabolic process. It mainly involves the exchange of gases between oxygen and carbon dioxide. In the exchange process, the respiratory pigments play a keyrole in gaseous exchange. Example: hemoglobin.

Our human hemoglobin is 100% saturated near the alveoli and 80% saturated after passing through the systemic capillaries and moving back into the veins. By contrast, an extraterrestrial friend's oxygen-binding molecule is 100% saturated near their alveoli and 60% saturated after passing through their systemic arteries and moving back into the veins. How does his hemoglobin compare to yours?
a. they deliver a larger share of oxygen to their tissues at rest
b. the partial pressure of O2 in their alveoli is higher than ours
c. the oxygen- binding molecule in their circulatory system is worse than ours
d. the partial pressure of O2 in their tissue is lower than ours

- Compare and contrast themarrow_forwardAs discussed in the Biology and Society section, the delivery of oxygen to muscles is the limiting factor for many athletes. Some athletes seek to improve their athletic performance through blood doping, which can artificially increase athletic capacity. Other athletes achieve the same result by training at high altitude (which promotes the formation of more red blood cells by the bone marrow). If two athletes achieve exactly the same result—one due to injecting her own blood and one due to training at altitude—why do you think the former is considered cheating but the latter is not? What would you do to enforce antidoping rules in sports at all levels (high school, college, Olympic, professional)?arrow_forwardYou 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?arrow_forward

Put in the points that represent systemic venous and systemic arterial blood (ignore the rightward shift in systemic venous blood). What is the adaptive importance of the plateau? Of the steep portion?

B: Describe concurrent exchange in your own words. C: Mammals have dead end sacs called “alveoli” and don’t have the super efficient countercurrent exchange system seen in fish. Why do you think countercurrent exchange is necessary for fish? (hint: think about the difference between where most mammals and fish live).arrow_forward
- Which molecule has the greatest ability to stabilize the deoxy state of hemoglobin? Select one: a. all have equal ability b. ВPG C. CO d. H e. Co2arrow_forwardWhich of the following is a true statement? A. The concentration of oxygen in water is greater than that in air. B. In animals with gills, ventilation helps to reduce the thickness of the boundary layer. C. Countercurrent flow at the gas-exchange surface results in the diffusion gradient across surface. D. Mammalian lungs requires the diaphragm because the lungs are relatively stiff and filled with parabronchi.arrow_forwardAn environment with an oxygen percent of 10% can quickly lead to unconsciousness and death. Assuming that the atmospheric pressure in this environment is 760 mmHg, hypothesize as to why such a low oxygen percent would be hazardous to human survival. Include Dalton’s law of partial pressures and the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation relationship in your response.arrow_forward
- Compare the structure and function of hemoglobin and myoglobin. Which oxygen binding curve in the graph below belongs to myoglobin and which to hemoglobin? Please specify. Explain the effect of pH on oxygen binding to hemoglobin, and show on the graph in which direction the pH will shift if it falls below the physiological pH value (7.4).arrow_forwardAccording to Figure 17.10b, at a pH of 7.4, how much hemoglobin is unloaded in the tissue? 12% 24% 56% 72% 95%arrow_forwardIn addition to O2 binding, changes in other chemical conditions can result in changes in hemoglobin structure and function. Increases in blood H+ result in oxygen binding curves for hemoglobin that are shifted to the right. The effect of H+ can be understood in terms of the equilibrium:H-Hb+ + O2 → Hb-O2 + H+How does the difference in pH in the lungs and tissues help hemoglobin do its job of delivering oxygen? Use the equilibrium equation in your argument.arrow_forward
