1. When molecules of either gags are more concentrated outside the body; they tend to move into
the body.

2. 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 0.04% carbon dioxide, and 0.96% other gases

3. It is when each gas exerts only part of the total pressure exerted by the whole mix of gases.

4. Element of oxygen and measured in mm Hg.

5. Gases enter and leave the body by crossing a thing respiratory surface of epithelium. This
respiratory surface must be moist, because gases cannot diffuse across it unless they are dissolved
in fluid. Surface area also influences the factor.

6. So the gases that goes into our body would dissolve in water.

7. False

8. Hemoglobin molecule binds with up to four oxygen molecules in the lungs where the oxygen
concentration is high; the gas exchange then gets a boost.

9. When the oxygen concentration is low, the hemoglobin releases the oxygen.

10. People become hypoxic when they aren’t acclimatized to the thinner air at high altitudes and
we compensate this through hyperventilation.

11. The deeper you go, the greater the pressure. To prevent the lungs from collapsing under the
increased pressure, the diver must inhale pressurized air from tanks which increases the total
pressure of gases in the diver’s lungs.

12. When ascending, the nitrogen will move from tissues to bloodstream much more rapidly than
it normally would so if the ascent is rapid, the nitrogen comes out of solution faster than the diver
can exhale it.

13. decompression sickness.

14. It can cause euphoria and it can cause paralysis.

15. It can also occur in carbon monoxide poisoning.

16. Carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless gas present in automobile exhaust fumes and it
binds to hemoglobin at least 200 times more tightly than oxygen does.

17. Because smoking can decrease your lung capacity and carbon monoxide, which is a toxic gas, is
present in tobacco. These carbon monoxide will bind into your hemoglobin thus hindering your
gas exchange.
