Gas Transport in the Blood. Efficient oxygen exchange requires the reversible binding of oxygen to hemoglobin. Describe the relationship between the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood and the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin. Include a labeled figure that clearly shows this relationship. Then, explain in detail the significance of the relationship by discussing what is seen in “average” body tissues and tissues that are metabolically active (name them). Then, explain in detail the significance of the relationship with respect to (modestly) high elevation. Lastly, describe in detail the additional factors that influence the loading and unloading of oxygen and explain their significance. Your explanations will need to include supporting evidence/facts/or conclusions. Be sure to explicitly state the significance in each case and support your statements. A significant number of points are awarded for doing so. For example for each section where you have to explain the significance try: “This is significant because...” then explain why it is important.

Be able to describe the how a positive and negative feedback loop differ in regulating a body’s function. Then using a specific set of hormones, you learned about (you select which ones…a pair) describe how they work in a negative feedback loop. Include in your description where they are released from, what triggers each one of them to be released, what actions they have and if they have specific target tissues or are generally dispersed throughout the body. Finally, how they interact with one another. Be very specific in your answer.
