Document Summary

Respiratory quotient (rq: co2 produced in similar proportions to amount of oxygen consumed, rq~ 0. 6-1. 0, but, solubilities of different gases are different and this may affect dynamics of loading and unloading these molecules. In many cases, an enzyme is needed to speed up the reaction. Bohr effect: co2: the affinity for o2 decreases as co2 partial pressure increases. Pressure of co2: thus co2 has a direct and. Both ph and partial indirect effect: 1. Haldane effect: describes relationship of binding of co2 to hemoglobin itself on oxygenated or deoxygenated blood, haldane effect = deoxygenated blood carries more co2 than oxygenated blood. Role of carbamate groups in co2 transport: co2 binding capacity is due to the role of carbamate, has n-terminals and at side chains of arginine and lysine residues. If we look at total co2 that"s in the blood, we see that the biggest proportion is bicarbonate ion and co2 gas is the smallest amount.
