 (a) Trachea is a membranous tube supported by “C” shaped hyaline cartilage ring. The cartilage ring protects the trachea from collapse and injury

66-(d) Oxyhaemoglobin is the bright red product which is formed when oxygen from the lungs combines with haemoglobin in the blood. It travels through the bloodstream to cells, where it breaks down to form haemoglobin and oxygen, and the oxygen then passes into cells. Factors like high pO2 , low pCO2 , lesser H+ concentration, and lower temperature favours for the formation of oxyhaemoglobin.

67-(c) ✔️varifiedAlveolar ventilation is less than pulmonary ventilation.


68-(b) Rise in p50 with decrease in pH is related to Bohr effect. Bohr effect is a physiological phenomenon first described in 1904 by the Danish physiologist Christian Bohr. This effect states that haemoglobin's oxygen binding affinity is inversely related both to acidity and to the concentration of carbon dioxide.

69-Correct option is

D

Rise in P with a decrease in pH (concentration at which 50% haemoglobin of blood is saturated with oxygen)

Bohr effect is the physiological process which demonstrates that oxygen binding affinity is inversely related to the low pH and concentration of carbon dioxide. If pH is lower than normal (normal physiological pH is 7.4), then Hb does not bind oxygen as well. As the amount of carbon dioxide increases, more  are formed and the pH will decrease. Thus, a lower pH in the blood is suggestive of an increased carbon dioxide concentration, which in turn is due to a more active tissue that requires more oxygen.


70-
 (a) All animals require a medium for cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules, like glucose, to carbon dioxide and water. The energy released is trapped in the form of ATP for use by all the energy-consuming activities of the cell.

71-
 (b) Haemoglobin is an iron-containing protein in red blood cells that is responsible for transporting oxygen to the tissues and removing carbon dioxide from them. Carbonic anhydrase helps in transport of carbon dioxide.


The reaction that shows the catalyzation of carbonic anhydrase in our tissues is:

CO2 + H2 H
2
CO
3
  H+ + HCO

The catalyzation of carbonic anhydrase in the lungs is shown by:

H+ + HCO
3
  H
2
CO
3
  CO2 + H2O

The reason for the reactions being in opposite directions for the tissues and lungs is because of the different pH levels found in them. Without the carbonic anhydrase catalyst, the reaction is very slow, however with the catalyst the reaction is 107 times faster.

The reaction catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase is:

HCO

 + H+  CO2 + H2O
