would O2 saturation be higher when inhaling or exhaling? explain.
Hemoglobin is an oxygen binding protein present in the blood. The structure of hemoglobin contains two parts, namely “heme (contains iron)” and the “protein part globin.”
The term "oxygen saturation" refers to the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood. During inhalation, more oxygen enter into the blood, so the partial pressure of oxygen increases, which means that the oxygen saturation is higher during inhalation. During exhalation, the carbon dioxide concentration is higher and the oxygen saturation is lower.
The haemoglobin saturation depends only on the partial pressure of oxygen exposure, this does not change with the concentration of hemoglobin. Means, the oxygen uptake by the haemoglobin and the partial pressure of oxygen is always in equilibrium irrespective of the Hb concentration in the blood.
Based on Kinetic Molecular theory, explain/answer the following: a. Why would inhaling helium make your voice become much higher than normal? b. Why would inhaling sulfur hexafluoride make your voice much lower than normal? c. Would your voice be higher or lower than average if you’re in the hospital and placed in an oxygen-rich environment?
