take a deep breath in, the go underwater, then blow the air out while underwater. Since Brutus
looks confused, she correctly tells him that before going into the water, he must ___ his
intercostals and then, when underwater, he must ___ and his lungs ___ - Answer Stimulate -
increase - pressure
To increase an individual's vital capacity, the ___ should be decreasesd. - Answer Residual
volume
Compare to veins, the arteries have a ___ pH and ___ concentration of bicarbonate. - Answer
Higher - lower
The Michigan football team takes multiple buses to transport its football players to a game
against its in-state rivals. On the last trip, one bus got stuck in traffic and never made the games.
A second bus arrived at the stadium but he declared ineligible by the NCAA due to poor
academics. If the players are considered to be oxygen, then the first bus experienced ___
hypoxia and the second bus experienced ___ hypoxia - Answer Ischemic - histotixic
Within the kindly, urine is collected in the ___ then immediately passes through the ___ to the
bladder - Answer Renal pelvis - ureter
Damage of the Type ___ alveolar cells will decrease the surface area across which oxygen
typically moves ___ an air medium - Answer I - directly - out of
Anaerobic exercise will ___ the oxygen affinity of hemoglobin - Answer Decrease
Let us consider your body as being like a kitchen. Consequently, your kidneys would be best
compared in function to a - Answer Colander/ strainer
Which is a correct statement about the respiratory system? - Answer Type I alveolar cells
directly allow for typical CO2 exhalation
The alveoli are only found within the respiratory zone
Without the Type II alveolar cells, the alveoli would be less resistant to hydrostatic pressure
Mrs. Flaplord Baggins redesigns Crabix such that when ingested it immediately increases the
ventilation rate. Consequently, you correctly determine that Crabix - Answer A decrease in
oxygen chemoreceptor activity
, Does not cause anemic hypoxia
Causes metabolic acidosis
Which is a correct statement about hemoglobin? - Answer (All three statements correct)
If the plasma was hydrophobic, then our bodies would not require hemoglobin
After binding one oxygen, the affinity at the three other sites is increased
Hemoglobin saturation will be reduced as the blood pH is lowered
Which is a correct statement about how the bladder fills? - Answer Epithelial cells are being
impact by the pressure and mechanoreceptors increase activity
Myosin light chain kinase activity is high in the internal urethral sphincter
A lowering of the pressure in the lungs occurs when - Answer The diaphragm is contracted
The inspiratory reserve volume is decreasing
Four factors were presenting in lecture as decreasing oxygen-binding to hemoglobin. A process
links them because - Answer Their presence indicates where oxygen is being used
Along with oxygen, they are all part of our Equation #2
Curing a Hoover Hustle 10-Miler run last year, Mrs. Scarlet began breathing harder after she
started running in the race. Which is a correct statement about the changes in Mrs. Scarlet? -
Answer Her tidal volume is increased
Her venous reseve was decreased
How do chemorecptors influence the ventilation rate in relation to PO2? - Answer
chemoreceptors detect PO2 to increase of decrease PO2. They are insensitive to change unless
PO2 is lower than ~60 mmHg. Receptors only register free O2.
How do chemorecptors influence the ventilation rate in relation to PCO2? - Answer sensitive
to small changes. If [CO2] is increased the VR is increased; but no VR at high levels (CO2 kills
neurons at very high levels). VR changes based on PCO2 not PO2.
How do chemorecptors influence the ventilation rate in relation to H+? - Answer -HCO3- is
present
metabolic acidosis - Answer anaerobic exercise creates a buildup of lactic acid which
decreases the pH (the blood becomes more acidic)
metabolic alkalosis - Answer high pH, high HCO3.
