18. Regarding the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve, a patient suffering from a fever would have a hemoglobin saturation curve shifted to the of a normal hemoglobin curve as an increase in temperature causes affinity for oxygen. a. left // higher b. left // lower c. right // higher. d. right // lower. e. None of these—temperature does not affect hemoglobin’s affinity for oxygen.

Perception of Right Visual Field

Consider a situation in which an object is visible in your right visual field (to the right of "straight ahead").

  • Light from this object will stimulate receptor cells in the  (right or left) half of each retina.
  • The impulses from this area of the retina travel via visual pathways to the visual cortex of the  (right or left) occipital lobe.
  • Thus, information regarding your right visual field is perceived by your  (right or left) visual cortex.

Summarize the material covered in today’s lab. Name and describe each of the phases of the cardiac cycle. Be sure to include the events that occur during each phase. Focus on the mechanical events (contraction and relaxation) of the chambers, the pressure changes in the heart, the position of the valves, and the heart sounds. Be sure to explain what causes each of the events you describe.
