what are the two methods of transport of oxygen

what method is in plasma ~1.5%

what method is bound to iron in center of heme, 98.5% carried this way, "oxyhemoglobin"

what % of heme units that contain O2 at any given moment

what is a very small change in the Po2 results in big change in the ability of Hb to bind O2 (or release O2)

what are the two factors which affect how much O2 binds to Hb

when there is and increase curve "shifts" left Hb wants to release less O2

when there is a decrease curve "shifts" right Hb wants to release more O2

20C decrease Hb release less O2

40C increase Hb release more O2

what by product of glycolysis (make ATP) reaction in RBC's,

increase BPG = increase release of O2 by Hb

what is a by product of aerobic metabolism in peripheral tissues

what are the methods of CO2 transport

what is in red blood cells, CO2—> carbonic anhydrase —> carbonic acid (H2CO3) —> H+(hydrogen ion) plus HCO3- (bicarbonate ion)

what has carbaminohemoglobin  (HbCO2)
