Question

When the pH of blood begins to become more basic than usual, hemoglobin has a hard time dropping off oxygen at the tissues. Why does this ultimately cause the kidneys to begin releasing EPO? Be sure to give a thorough explanation. 8. 9. In order to exhale massively into the spirometer in this laboratory activity, was your internal thoracic pressure greater than the barometric pressure of the room or lower than the barometric pressure of the room? 10. Explain why chronic emphysema could cause blood pH to go down. 274

Explanation / Answer

8 answer - when the pH blood begins more basic at it lead to haemoglobin takes off the oxygen or carry very less amount of the oxygen to the tissue. In that same time kidney play a major role to fullfill the requirement of cell for oxygen by releasing EPO. APP stand for erythropoitin which is responsible to increase production of RBC in the bone marrow. That's why because more haemoglobin are required to carry oxygen. The process is same like as we try to go mountains or high altitute where oxygen concentration is very less. At that time our body increase the production of RBC

9 answer

The internal barothorecic pressure will be low than the room pressure that's why we exhale massively because we need more pressure to push out the air out of the lungs.

10 answer

Chronic emphysema is an condition of COPD. In this disease shortness of breath occurs which lead to increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood which lead to pH goes down.
