Goals For Learning • To explore how O2 is
transported in the blood.
• To explore how Co2 is transported in the blood.
• This will include understanding the oxygen dissociation curve.
• What you need to know
• Definition of partial pressure
• Processes of external respiration and internal respiration.

Oxygen Transport
• O2 is transported by the blood either,– Combined with haemoglobin (Hb) in the red blood
cells (>98%) or,– Dissolved in the blood plasma (<2%).

Oxygen Transport
• The resting body requires 250ml of O2 per minute.
• We have four to six billion haemoglobin containing red blood cells.
• The haemoglobin allows nearly 70 times more O2 than dissolved in plasma.

Structure of hemoglobin
![Page 7: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Haemoglobin Haemoglobin molecules can transport up to four O2’s
When 4 O2’s are bound to haemoglobin, it is 100% saturated, with fewer O2’s it is partially saturated.
Oxygen binding occurs in response to the high PO2 in the lungs
Co-operative binding: haemoglobin’s affinity for O2 increases as its saturation increases.
![Page 8: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Lets Now Look at Haemoglobin Saturation
• Haemoglobin saturation is the amount of oxygen bound by each molecule of haemoglobin
• Each molecule of haemoglobin can carry four molecules of O2.
• When oxygen binds to haemoglobin, it forms OXYHAEMOGLOBIN;
• Haemoglobin that is not bound to oxygen is referred to as DEOXYHAEMOGLOBIN.
![Page 9: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Haemoglobin Saturation
• The binding of O2 to haemoglobin depends on the PO2 in the blood and the bonding strength, or affinity, between haemoglobin and oxygen.
• The graph on the following page shows an oxygen dissociation curve, which reveals the amount of haemoglobin saturation at different PO2 values.
![Page 10: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Oxygen Dissociation Curve
• Reveals the amount of haemoglobin saturation at different PO2 values.
![Page 11: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Oxygen Disassociation CurveHaemoglobin saturation is
determined by the partial pressure of oxygen. When these values are
graphed they produce the Oxygen Disassociation Curve
In the lungs the partial pressure is approximately 100mm Hg at this Partial Pressure haemoglobin has a high affinity to 02 and is 98% saturated.
In the tissues of other organs a typical PO2 is 40 mmHg here haemoglobin has a lower affinity for O2 and releases some but not all of its O2 to the tissues. When haemoglobin leaves the tissues it is still 75% saturated.
![Page 12: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Haemoglobin Saturation at High Values
Lungs at sea level: PO2 of 100mmHg haemoglobin is 98% SATURATED
Lungs at high elevations: PO2 of 80mmHg, haemoglobin 95% saturated
Even though PO2 differs by 20 mmHg there is almost no difference in haemoglobin saturation.
When the PO2 in the lungs declines below typical sea level values, haemoglobin still has a high affinity for O2 and remains almost fully saturated.

Haemoglobin Saturation at Low Values

Factors Altering Haemoglobin Saturation
![Page 16: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Factors Affecting Haemoglobin Saturation
• Blood acidity…• Blood temperature…• Carbon Dioxide concentration
![Page 18: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Factors affecting Disassociation BLOOD TEMPERATURE• increased blood temperature• reduces haemoglobin affinity for O2
• hence more O2 is delivered to warmed-up tissue
Respiratory Response to Exercise
BLOOD Ph• lowering of blood pH (making blood
more acidic)• caused by presence of H+ ions from
lactic acid or carbonic acid• reduces affinity of Hb for O2
• and more O2 is delivered to acidic sites which are working harder
CARBON DIOXIDE CONCENTRATION• the higher CO2 concentration in
tissue• the less the affinity of Hb for O2
• so the harder the tissue is working, the more O2 is released

Key Point
• Increased temperature and hydrogen ion (H+) (pH) concentration in exercising muscle affect the oxygen dissociation curve, allowing more oxygen to be uploaded to supply the active muscles.
![Page 25: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Carbon Dioxide Transport
• Carbon dioxide also relies on the blood for transportation. Once carbon dioxide is released from the cells, it is carried in the blood primarily in three ways…
• Dissolved in plasma,• As bicarbonate ions resulting from the
dissociation of carbonic acid,• Bound to haemoglobin.
![Page 26: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Dissolved Carbon Dioxide• Part of the carbon dioxide released from the
tissues is dissolved in plasma. But only a small amount, typically just 7 – 10%, is transported this way.
• This dissolved carbon dioxide comes out of solution where the PCO2 is low, such as in the lungs.
• There it diffuses out of the capillaries into the alveoli to be exhaled.
![Page 27: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Carbon dioxide is carried in the blood in three forms
1. Dissolved
2. As bicarbonate
3. As carbamino compounds

• Haldane effect :Haldane effect results from the fact that
combination of O2 with Hb causes Hb to be a stronger acid. Thus displaces CO2

• Chloride shift (also known as the Hamburger's shift or Hamburger's phenomenon, named after Hartog Jakob Hamburger) is a process which occurs in a cardiovascular system and refers to the exchange of bicarbonate (HCO3-) and chloride (Cl-) across the membrane of red blood cells (RBCs).

In Review
1) Oxygen is transported in the blood primarily bound to haemoglobin though a small amount is dissolved in blood plasma.
2) Haemoglobin oxygen saturation decreases.1) When PO2 decreases.2) When pH decreases.3) When temperature increases.
![Page 38: Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081514/58ed1ce41a28ab73658b46dd/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
In Review
Each of these conditions can reflect increased local oxygen demand. They increase oxygen uploading in the needy area.
3) Haemoglobin is usually about 98% saturated with oxygen. This reflects a much higher oxygen content than our body requires, so the blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity seldom limits performance.

In Review
4) Carbon dioxide is transported in the blood primarily as bicarbonate ion. This prevents the formation of carbonic acid, which can cause H+ to accumulate, decreasing the pH. Smaller amounts of carbon dioxide are carried either dissolved in the plasma or bound to haemoglobin
