The satirists that live in present times have a lot more opportunities to avoid prosecution by those they attack. We can find many examples in popular culture nowadays. For example, musicians constantly reference people in power in their songs, sometimes in very negative ways. This is also true of people such as talkshow hosts, comedians and journalists. The main reason why they are able to do so is because the Constitution protects free speech, making censorship for these reasons unconstitutional.

This was not the case in colonial or revolutionary America. During this time period, the Constitution did not exist, which meant that free speech was not protected in the way that it is now. Instead, creators of broadsides were often persecuted for their writings and depictions. One way in which they protected themselves of this was by the use of symbolisms, allegories and metaphors designed to mask the true meaning of their work.

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Henry's law pointed out that the <em>oxygen solubility</em> is very low. This means that only small amounts of oxygen are dissolved in the plasma. Consequently, about <em>98% </em>of the oxygen in the blood must be transported within <em>plasma </em>where it attaches to the<em>  protein </em>within hemoglobin molecules. Oxygen bound to hemoglobin is referred to as <em>Oxyhemoglobin</em> . Hemoglobin without bound oxygen is called  M<em>ethemoglobin (metHb) or Ferrihemoglobin</em> <em> .</em>

Explanation:

Oxygen is carried in the blood in two forms: (1) dissolved in  and RBC water (about 2% of the total) and (2) reversibly bound to hemoglobin (about 98% of the total). At physiological PO2 (40 &#60; PO2 &#60; 100 mm Hg), only a small amount of oxygen is dissolved in plasma since oxygen has such a low solubility.

The plasma is the intravascular fluid comprised of water, dissolved proteins, glucose, clotting factors, electrolytes, hormones, and carbon dioxide. Blood volume pertains to the volume of blood in the circulatory system. In general, the blood volume of an adult is about five liters.

Oxygen is transported in the blood in two ways: A small amount of O 2 (1.5 percent) is carried in the plasma as a dissolved gas. Most oxygen (98.5 percent) carried in the blood is bound to the protein hemoglobin in red blood cells. A fully saturated oxyhemoglobin (HbO 2) has four O 2 molecules attached.

The hemoglobin is then called methemoglobin (metHb) or ferrihemoglobin (Fe+3 will not bind oxygen). Ordinarily, about 1% of the hemoglobin in a red blood cell is in this form.
