Blood returning to the mammalian heart in a pulmonary vein drains first into the vena cava. left atrium. right atrium. left ventricle. right ventricle.
Compared with the interstitial fluid that bathes active muscle cells, blood reaching these cells in arteries has a • higher PO2. • higher PCO2. • greater bicarbonate concentration. • lower pH. • lower osmotic pressure.
In negative pressure breathing, inhalation results from • forcing air from the throat down into the lungs. • contracting the diaphragm. • relaxing the muscles of the rib cage. • using muscles of the lungs to expand the alveoli. • contracting the abdominal muscles.
When you hold your breath, which of the following blood gas changes first leads to the urge to breathe? • rising O2 • falling O2 • rising CO2 • falling CO2 • rising CO2 and falling O2
Which metabolic pathway is common to both fermentation and cellular respiration of a glucose molecule? • the citric acid cycle • the electron transport chain • glycolysis • synthesis of acetyl CoA from pyruvate • reduction of pyruvate to lactate
The final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain that functions in aerobic oxidative phosphorylation is • oxygen. • water. • NAD+. • pyruvate. • ADP.
