Questions and Answers

Which of the following is true about the stimuli at the various receptors in respiration control?

Only concentration of CO2 is important stimulus

Only concentration of O2 is important stimulus

Concentrations of O2 and CO2 are not important stimuli

Concentrations of O2 and CO2 are important stimuli (correct)

What happens to the alveolar tensions during breath holding?

PO2 rises and PCO2 falls

PO2 falls and PCO2 rises (correct)

PO2 and PCO2 both rise

PO2 and PCO2 both fall

What is the primary factor for breaking during breath hold when breathing 100% O2?

Hypoxia

Hyperventilation

Hypercapnia (correct)

Lung collapse

Breathing 100% O2 increases the tolerance for hypercapnia because

it removes both hypoxic and hypercapnic drives for respiration Signup and view all the answers
