Document Summary

Pressure of the liquid (pliquid) is proportional to pressure of the air (pair) The amount of gas in a solution is dependent upon: 1. Gases that have reacted chemically will not contribute to partial pressure in a solution. The solubility of o in water (especially warm salty water) is not enough to provide o to active tissues. At the tissues, mitochondrial o consumption "s the po of the blood, causing o to dissociate from the oxygen carrier, and allowing it to then diffuse down its po gradient into the cells. Diffusion will be dependent upon the properties of the solution as well as the [o ] of the air. Ed partial pressure in the blood allows for of o diffusion from the air. Once the o molecules are bound to the respiratory pigment they are no longer considered part of the solution. What it means to have a respiratory pigment.
