Supernumerary fusion cells (FCs) form in the dorsal trunk (DT) in aopO199 embryonic trachea.
How could you test whether the extra FCs are from FCs dividing, or from a change in the fate of other tracheal cells? What other possible cellular mechanism could be taking place here?

- After spending a day or more at high altitude (with an oxygen partial pressure of 75 torr), the concentration of 2,3- bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) in red blood cells increases. What effect would an increased concentration of 2,3-BPG have on the oxygen-binding curve for hemoglobin? Why would this adaptation be beneficial for functioning well at high altitude?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_forwardㅂ 분 20 4 3 2 U Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid obtained from a 34-year-old healthy volunteer is found to contain elastase.

- In 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(b) The diagram on the right compares O2-dissoci- ation curves for human hemoglobins characterized by dif- ferent p50 values. If Ko2 represents the equilibrium disso- ciation constant for oxygen binding, e.g., Hb(02)n Hb + nO₂ show the relationship between Ko2 and p50. Assign one of the curves (a, b, e) that best approxi- mates the Ko2 of each of the mutant hemoglobins in the table above including HbA where Ko2 represents the equi- librium dissociation constant for oxygen binding. If no curve is present for any of the mutant hemogobins, state the rea- son why the mutant is not represented. Indicate on the graph where its p50 would lie.

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.

- Oxygen diffuses from the inhaled air in the alveoli of the lungs, where its concentration is higher, into the cytoplasm of red blood cells, where its concentration is lower. Patients diagnosed with emphysema have damaged alveoli. This results to fewer, larger air spaces instead of many small ones. Explain how this damage can lead to shortness of breath? The surface area of lungs is reduced. Hence, less oxygen can diffuse into the red blood cells. The surface area of lungs is increased. Hence, more oxygen can diffuse into the red blood B cells. The surface area of lungs is reduced. Hence, more oxygen can diffuse into the red blood cells. The surface area of lungs is increased. Hence, less oxygen can diffuse into the red blood cells.arrow_forwardIn the RBCs of the patient described in the picture, which of the following would be expected? Explain. A.

- In an experiment, mitochondria were suspended in a buffered medium. The O2 electrode was used to monitor 0, consumption and assayed for the presence of ATP. Figure 3 shows the respiratory control by following the oxygen utilization (solid line) and ATP synthesis (discontinuous line) in the isolated mitochondria with additions of succinate, ADP, orthophosphate, oligomycin and dinitrophenol (DNP). Comment on the observations and relate the effects of the compounds added to electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation.

Iron ions are either stored in a phagocytic cell or circulate in the blood, bound to transferrin (a plasma protein). b. Each heme is stripped of its iron and converted to bilirubin, then excreted in bile. c. The alpha and beta chains are released into the bloodstream for use by other cells. d. Hemoglobin can be recycled only if phagocytized by macrophages.arrow_forwardChoose only one correct answer from all of these answers and explainarrow_forward
