Photosynthesis is essential to all life on earth; both plants and animals depend on it. It is the only biological process that can capture energy that originates in outer space (sunlight) and convert it into chemical compounds (carbohydrates) that every organism uses to power its metabolism.

If a hemoglobin molecule comes into close contact with a respiring cell, the presence of CO2 in the environment will cause hemog
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

No, when the concentration of carbon dioxide is high, such as in peripheral tissues, CO2 binds to hemoglobin and the affinity for O2 decreases, causing it to release.

Explanation:

The O2 molecule is reversibly combined with the heme portion of the hemoglobin. When the partial pressure of O2 is high, as in the case of pulmonary capillaries, for example, the binding of O2 to hemoglobin and the release of carbon dioxide are favored, this is known as the Haldane effect. If, on the contrary, when the concentration of carbon dioxide is high, such as in peripheral tissues, CO2 is bound to hemoglobin and the affinity for O2 decreases, causing it to release, this is known as the effect Bohr.

If the bicuspid (mitral) valve is not fully closing, does pulmonary circulation increase, decrease, or not change?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: Decrease

It will decrees because required volume of blood will not be   emptied into the pulmonary circulation  to reach the lung for oxygenation. Rather blood flows back into the  Right  atrium ,(regurgitation,) through the these valves   during ventricular contraction ( systole)of the Right Ventricle instead to the pulmonary circulation which  reduces blood flow leading  to volume overload  in  the heart. Eventually this  affects systemic circulation,
