- How does hemoglobin help maintain the oxygen partial pressure gradient during gas transport in the body?arrow_forwardWhat is oxyhemoglobin? Where does it form?arrow_forwardUnder appropriate denaturing conditions, hemoglobin can dissociate into four separate subunits. An isolated alpha subunit binds oxygen, but the O2-saturation curve is hyperbolic rather than sigmoid. In addition, the binding of oxygen to an isolated alpha subunit is not affected by the presence of H+, CO2, or BPG. What do these observations indicate about the source of the cooperativity in hemoglobin?arrow_forward
- Calculate the fractional saturation for hemoglobin when the partial pressure of oxygen is 80 mm Hg. Assume hemoglobin is 50% saturated with oxygen at a partial pressure of 24 mm Hg and that the Hill coefficient is 3.arrow_forwardUnder appropriate conditions, hemoglobin dissociates into its four subunits. The isolated α subunit binds oxygen, but the O2 -saturation curve ishyperbolic rather than sigmoid. In addition, the binding of oxygen to the isolated α subunit is not affected by the presence of H+, CO2 , or BPG. What do these observations indicate about the source of the cooperativity in hemoglobin?arrow_forwardx The Bohr effect describes the impact of changes in serum pH and CO2 concentrations on the oxygen dissociation curve of hemoglobin. This effect is physiologically important because it allows the body to adapt to changing conditions and provide enough oxygen to different types of tissues. **Plot the curves of hemoglobin oxygen saturation for patients in conditions of acidosis (serum pH below 7.34) and alkalosis (serum pH higher than 7.45) and compare it to the one in normal conditions. ** **When tissues, such as muscle tissue, are performing large amounts of strenuous activity the increase in metabolic activity produces CO2 as waste. Once in the bloodstream the enzyme carbonic anhydrase speeds up the conversion of CO2 to bicarbonate and protons. How does this affect the release of oxygen to the tissues?** **2,3-bisphosphoglycerate is an allosteric inhibitor of oxygen binding to hemoglobin. Acclimatization to high altitude involves numerous physiological and biochemical changes,…arrow_forward
