    I love your series. One thing I want to mention on this episode. I know you are limited on time, but you did not mention the importance of the intercostal muscles working with the diaphragm. My daughter was born without skeletal muscle, so she had no intercostal. She used her stomach to assist the diaphragm, making her a “belly breather.” Because she would tire very easily, she was on a ventilator at night to help her rest.

    How can o2 just have a Carbon atom attached to it and turned to co2 when "consumed"? If the cell just could ge rid of the extra carbon and resuse the O2, that would be more efficient, or is the o2 needed to get rid of the waste carbon atom?

    • @romeoespina2736
      @romeoespina2736 4 роки тому

      Maybe its also needed for other processes like the buffer system and thermoregulation. Also the body maybe cant process the splitting of carbon from the o2 or requires a lot of energy. Too much carbon could increase carbonic acid which would result into acidosis.

    Octopodes, squid and the other cephalopods have a 3-heart circulatory system to increase the pressure of blood before it arrives to their branchiae, which serve as their pulmonary equivalent. Since liquids are basically uncompressable, does this change the way their gaseous exchange work? What about simpler creatures like oysters?

  • @Qman621
    @Qman621 4 роки тому

    To expand a bit, hemoglobin changes affinity between CO2 and O2 based on the amount of O2 attached and the temperature. So hot muscles will lower the affinity for O2; dumping O2 where it is needed, and then pick up waste CO2 and makes its way back to the lungs where the increased O2 gradient causes the CO2 to switch places with O2.

    • @alisjemarx9871

      Hi if you breath O2 then why do you exhale CO2 = carbon + the O2 the just inhale then your body did not use ANY O2 to begin with.

    • @Qman621
      @Qman621 2 роки тому

      ​@@alisjemarx9871 You're body makes energy by breaking down hydrocarbons and produces energy as a byproduct. For instance, cells break down sugar like this:
      C6H12O6(Sugar)+6O2 -> 6CO2+6H2O+Energy
      The oxygen isn't created or destroyed, it just changes form and a byproduct of the chemical reaction that changes O2 into CO2 makes excess energy in the form of free electrons that are captured by the body and turned into a molecule of ATP which your cells can than use directly to power various functions like ion pumps.

      It's there, but your cells don't use it for anything, so there's no net flow of nitrogen in or out of the body. It's possible to have too much nitrogen diffused in the blood though, like if you go scuba diving for a long time, or if you're an astronaut preparing for a space walk.
