Life Lesson Describe the symptoms of emphysema.
Inspired air has a PO2 of 159 and a PCO2 of 0.3. When it arrives at the alveoli, air has a PO2 of 104 and a PCO2 of 40. Blood in the pulmonary capillaries has a PO2 of 40 and a PCO2 of 46. In the alveoli oxygen moves _____ the blood and carbon dioxide moves ____ the blood.
Fluid surrounding the bodies tissues has a PO2 of 40 and a PCO2 of 46 while blood in the systemic capillaries has a PO2 of 100 and a PCO2 of 40. In the tissues oxygen diffuses _____ out of the blood and carbon dioxide diffuses ____ the blood.
Body At WORK List 3 factors necessary for oxygenation of blood.
Describe how oxygen is transported in the blood.
Describe how carbon dioxide is transported in the blood.

The filtration units of the kidney are the _______.
Blood enters the kidney through the ______ artery. This branches into smaller and amaller arteries until it becomes the ________ arteriole of a nephron. It next flows to the ________. Blood leaves the glomerulus through an _______ arteriole. The efferent arteriole leads to the ___________capillaries, which pick up water and solutes reabsorbed by the renal tubules. The peritubular capillaries lead to larger and larger veins that feed into the _____ vein.
