Across
  1. 3. state of low partial pressure of oxygen in the blood
  2. 5. disorder caused by high partial pressure of oxygen in the blood
  3. 6. disorder that changes the shape of red blood cells, altering the ability for the RBCs to pick up oxygen
  4. 8. all other places within the respiratory system, which functions to warm inspired air, humidify circulating air, and secrete mucus
  5. 10. the place where gas exchange only occurs, including the respiratory bronchioles and alveoli
  6. 13. measurement at sea level, 70 mmHg, includes the partial pressures of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water molecules
  7. 17. disorder caused by high partial pressure of nitrogen in the blood
Down
  1. 1. dissociation of oxygen from the hemoglobin molecule
  2. 2. association of oxygen with hemoglobin molecule
  3. 4. the pressure that a particular gas in a mixture exerts independently
  4. 7. type of hemoglobin bound to carbon dioxide that is dissolved in the blood
  5. 9. type of hemoglobin that is bound to carbon monoxide displaying a 200x higher affinity for CO than for O2
  6. 11. type of hemoglobin bound to oxygen molecules providing the bright red color
  7. 12. movement of oxygen from the outside are to the cells within tissues, transport of carbon dioxide in the opposite direction
  8. 14. chemoreceptors located in the medulla
  9. 15. chemoreceptors located in the aortic arch and carotids, very sensitive to changes in pH
  10. 16. chemoreceptors that are very sensitive to changes in carbon dioxide partial pressures
