Assertion (A): | The amount of CO2 that can diffuse through the diffusion membrane per unit difference in partial pressure is much higher compared to that of O2. |
Reason (R): | Haemoglobin does not play any role in the transport of carbon dioxide in human blood. |
1. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
3. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
1. | increases the diameter of thorax in dorso-ventral axis and brings about inhalation |
2. | decreases the diameter of thorax in dorso-ventral axis and brings about exhalation |
3. | increases the diameter of thorax in antero-posterior axis and brings about inhalation |
4. | decreases the diameter of thorax in antero-posterior axis and brings about exhalation |
Favourable conditions for the oxygenation of haemoglobin at alveoli include all the following except:
1. High pO2
2. Low pCO2
3. Low pH
4. Low temperature
Statement I: | Humans breathe by negative pressure. |
Statement II: | The respiratory center is directly affected by low oxygen levels. |
Consider the given two statements:
Assertion: It is important that the anatomical setup of lungs in thorax is such that any change in the volume of the thoracic cavity will be reflected in the pulmonary cavity.
Reason: We cannot directly alter the pulmonary volume.
1. Assertion is true but Reason is false
2. Both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason correctly explains the Assertion
3. Both Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason does not correctly explain the Assertion
4. Assertion is false but Reason is true
