Animal Physiology O2; CO2 & Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiologyO2 and CO2 - respiratory gasses.O2is not actively transported in animal.CO2 sometimes actively transported across cell membranes (bicarbonate ions HCO3-) by reaction with waterThus condition must be favourable for passive transport to cells:-Fan worms: elaborate circulatory system; filled with blood rich in hemoglobin-like O2- transport pigment; spectacular tentacles (gills).Water beetle: bubble that act as gill while beetle underwater (O2 moves steadily into bubble from water when beetle submerged).Animal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiologyAnimal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiology

Animal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiology

Exchanges of respiratory gasses - usually most urgent. A person dies within minutes if denied O2, but can live for days without exchanging nutrients, nitrogenous wastes or water. WHY? - O2as final electron acceptor in cellular respiration.Animal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiologyEnergy cannot be transfered from bonds of food molecules to bonds of ATP by aerobic catabolic apparatus of a cell unless O2 is available to combine with e- exiting the electron-transport chain.CO2 accumulation in body rapidly acidify body fluids & harmful.Animal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiology

2 mechanisms how respiratory gases move from a place to another:-simple diffusionconvection (bulk flow)CHEMICAL POTENTIAL: provides basis for a truly general law of diffusion. DIFFUSION:-Animal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiology[regions of high chemical potential]rate proportionate to difference in chemical potential[regions of low chemical potential]Diffusion within a single aqueous solution:-[solute] is useful surrogate for chemical potential because [solute] gives correct answers if used in diffusion equations.

Diffusion between gas mixtures and aqueous solutions:-Concentration is not useful surrogate for chemical potentialPartial pressure is useful in expressing chemical potential for gasses

Law of partial pressures:- TOTAL PRESSURE EXERTED BY A MIXTURE OF GASES (IE ATM) IS SUM OF INDIVIDUAL PRESSURESEXERTED BY EACH OF SEVERAL COMPONENTGASES IN THE MIXTURE.

Individual pressure exerted by any particular gas in a gas mixture is PARTIAL PRESSURE of that gas.

PARTIAL PRESSURE of each gas in a mixture is independent of other gases present.

Partial pressure and concentration of gas in aqueous solution is more complicated than in gas.HENRY's LAW: fundamental law that relates partial pressure and concentration in aqueous solutions.gases in aqueous phaseAnimal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiologyproperties of gases

Several ways HENRY's LAW is expressed, employing different but related coefficients:-absorption coefficient: dissolved concentration of a gas when the partial pressure of the gas in solution is 1 atm.Cx = APx Px = partial pressure of the gas (x) in solution Cx = dissolved concentration of a gas A = absorption coefficientgases in aqueous phaseAnimal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiologyproperties of gases

Cx = APx In gas phase (Cx proportionate to Px):-all gases have essentially identical quantitative relations between Cx and Px (all adhere to universal gas law).In aqueous phase:-A varies based on a) type of dissolved gas; b) type solution of gas, depending on temperature and salinity of watergases in aqueous phaseAnimal PhysiologyO2; CO2& Internal TransportO2 & CO2 physiologyproperties of gases

Cx = APx Absorption coefficient (A) is measure of gas solubility:-High A = high solubility (a lot of gas dissolve at any given partial pressure).Three important characteristics of gases dissolved in aqueous solutions when examining A:-Solubilities of different gases are different.Solubilities of gases in aqueous solutions decrease strongly with increasing water temperature.Solubilities of gases in aqueous solutions decrease with increasing salinity.
