    I read that nitrogen doesn't get into the blood because at normal pressure it doesn't dissolve into water. That's a reason why we can't stay to long under high pressure, because are blood gets intoxicated with nitrogen.

    "Carbon dioxide actually gets diffused in the blood, it is actually carried in the plasma in the blood; it's not carried by the red blood cells."
    To clarify: ~5% CO2 *dissolves* into the plasma under the partial pressure of venous CO2 at 46 mmHg. Another 5-10% is transported on the globin chain of hemoglobin as "carbaminohemoglobins". CO2 and water form carbonic acid in the RBC; the conjugate base (bicarbonate) leaves the RBC into the plasma via the chloride shift forming the other 85-90%.

  • @phreshbrocoli
    @phreshbrocoli 9 лет назад +1

    doesn't really answer what happened to nitrogen. Does it diffuse into the capillaries and enter the circulation or there is a mechanism to filter nitrogen gas out before blood returned to the heart?

    • @EmethMatthew
      @EmethMatthew 7 лет назад +2

      He said some of it diffuses through the capillaries, but I believe it basically just reaches a diffusion equilibrium because it doesn't have anything to enhance it's concentration in the blood like hemoglobin does for oxygen... So you don't have an elevated concentration like oxygen, it isn't used for cellular respiration like oxygen, and it isn't produced by cellular respiration like carbon dioxide that just increases its concentration by a diffusion gradient. So some nitrogen goes into your blood, takes a ride around your circulatory system, and leaves at the lungs again.
      I believe that's why they don't use regular nitrogen-rich air for deep sea diving because the pressure increases the diffusion gradient for nitrogen and you get extra nitrogen forced into your blood that doesn't do anything EXCEPT give you a higher risk of the bends (nitrogen bubbling out of your blood when the pressure lets up), so they use another "carrier" gas that doesn't diffuse in your blood as easily as nitrogen...

  • @MrSmartkid30

    So it's plasma that gets to carry carbon dioxide to the heart and not rbcs?....what about allosteric inhibition? Where you mentioned co2 binding to hemoglobin

    • @phreshbrocoli
      @phreshbrocoli 9 лет назад +1

      +olaitan CO2 first has to be converted to H2CO3 (carbonic acid) via carbonic anhydrase inside the RBCs, then the product HCO3- (bicarbonate) can exit the RBCs and stay in solution in the plasma. There is a low amount of CO2 that dissolved in the plasma, but this is negligible because a gas would bubble out of solution if it remains in the gaseous state. CO2 does compete with O2 for HgB, but it is H+ from carbonic acid that does the majority of competing for HgB and this normally occurs near actively respiring cells such as muscle cells where high level of CO2 is produced. This competition for HgB then decrease affinity of HgB for O2 and allows O2 to be taken up by those respiring cells. Hope that helps.

    You are indeed wrong about sight. When light comes down every wavelength of light but that of what you see is absorbed. The light, this time from red blood cells, is red so thats is what is reflected and seen by you.

    How this is going to affect exchanges of CO2 in the alveoli system?

  • @quiz0walkthroughs
    @quiz0walkthroughs 13 лет назад

    a large misconception is that blood turns from blue -> red. it actually goes from light red to a slightly darker red. veins are blue to the eyes because of the light coming through the skin, take away your skin and you'll see your veins are red. you are not alien, your blood is always red lol

  • @RefractoWhat
    @RefractoWhat 11 лет назад

    around 12:53 he is saying that because the light of the wavelength of red light is being reflected by oxygenated hemoglobin we perceivably see the RBCs reddish
    This contradicts with what I believe to know:
    If we see the color red, it's not because red is being reflected, but absorbed and all the other wavelengths of the spectrum of the visible light are being reflected; our brain receives the signal that 'red' is missing and interprets us the color as being red; please correct me if Im wrong

    • @fullmetallifter474
      @fullmetallifter474 10 лет назад

      Science is true whether you believe it or not, that is the amazing thing about it. And even the christian theory of how life began includes a form of evolution. You should watch the debate between Bill Nye and a Christian scientist(I forget his name). Very informative if you keep an open mind

    • @tombruice
      @tombruice 10 лет назад +2

      If god is real, then how was he created? He was either created by something else or by chance. If you keep asking that question, at some point something had to have been created by chance. Since we are the simplest form of this theoretical hierarchy, it would make sense that we would be the ones created by chance. Evolution and modern genetics provide evidence of this, and these are things that you can test and get unbiased results. You don't need a god to give your life purpose or wonder. The fact that everything is random can be a beautiful thought if you look at it from the correct angle.

    • @madeleineenright9317
      @madeleineenright9317 10 лет назад +1

      ILSappr You're right ILSappr, there's no way such a system could have been an accident. God is the force behind evolution. Many Christians incl Catholics accept this. God was the force behind the big bang. Something cannot come from nothing - we know that logically. As for how God came to be, God is the being who transcends time and space - he "always was and always will be". That's what "Yahweh" means: "I am, who am" - he transcends time and space. There is nothing else to explain how something (the big bang and the universe) could come from nothing, other than from a force that exists outside the realms of space and time: God.But God is even more than this. He is a loving God who loves and knows every single person he created personally and to the most miniscule detail, including the ones who don't know or believe in him.Hope this clears some of your questions up :)

    • @shreyasnaidu3208
      @shreyasnaidu3208 9 лет назад +1

      Madeleine Enright Religious people are hilarious, when science came up with the big bang and evolution most religious folk denied the evidence, saying it's not possible as according to a book. Now as mounting evidence is thrust into the nay-sayers faces, they conveniently say god was behind it the whole time. Religion is the realm of ignorance and as science progresses that realm will shrink. Also something can come from nothing, as shown by Stanley Miller and Harold Urey in their experiment where they showed that in earths early life, the environment could have produced the building blocks of life. BOOM.
