Concentration and Partial
Pressure of Respired Gases
• Partial pressure = Percentage of
concentration of specific gas × Total
pressure of a gas

Movement of Gas in Air and
Fluids
• Henry’s law
– Gases diffuse from high pressure to low
pressure.
• Diffusion rate depends upon
– Pressure differential
– Solubility of the gas in the fluid

McArdle, Katch, and Katch: Exercise Physiology: Energy,
Nutrition, and Human Performance, Sixth Edition
Pressure Differential
• The difference in the pressure of specific
gases from the capillary blood to the
alveoli dictates the direction of diffusion.

Gas Exchange in
Lungs & Tissues
• Exchange of gases between lungs and blood
and gas movement at the tissue level
progress passively by diffusion, depending
on their pressure gradients.

•
PO2 in alveoli ~ 100 mm Hg
PO2 in pulmonary capillaries ~ 40 mm Hg

Transport of O2 in the Blood
• Two mechanisms exist for O2 transport
– Dissolved in plasma
– Combined with hemoglobin

McArdle, Katch, and Katch: Exercise Physiology: Energy,
Nutrition, and Human Performance, Sixth Edition
Oxygen in Physical Solution
• For each 1 mm Hg increase, 0.003 mL O2
dissolves into plasma.
• This results in ~ 3 mL of O2/liter blood.
• With 5 L total blood volume = 15 mL dissolved
O2
• Dissolved O2 establishes the PO2 of the blood.
– Regulates breathing
– Determines loading of hemoglobin

Oxygen Combined with
Hemoglobin
• Each of four iron atoms associated with
hemoglobin combines with one O2
molecule.

Oxygen-Carrying Capacity of Hb
• Each gram of Hb combines with 1.34 mL
O2.
• With normal Hb levels, each dL of blood
contains about 20 mL O2.

Anemia Affects Oxygen
Transport
• Volume percent (vol%) refers to the
milliliters of oxygen extracted from a
100-mL sample of whole blood.
• Human blood carries O2 at 14 vol%.
• Iron deficiency anemia reduces O2
carrying capacity considerably.

McArdle, Katch, and Katch: Exercise Physiology: Energy,

PO2 and Hb Saturation
• Oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve
illustrates the saturation of Hb with
oxygen at various PO2 values
• Percent saturation = 12 vol% / 20 vol% ×
100 = 60%
Copyright © 2007 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
McArdle, Katch, and Katch: Exercise Physiology: Energy,
Nutrition, and Human Performance, Sixth Edition
PO2 in the Lungs
• Hb ~ 98% saturated under normal conditions
• Increased PO2 doesn’t increase saturation.

PO2 in Tissues
• At rest
– PO2 = 40 mm Hg
– Venous blood carries ~ 70% of the O2 content
of arterial blood.
– Venous blood carries 15 mL O2 per dL blood.
– Tissues have extracted 5 mL O2 per dL blood.

Arteriovenous O2 Difference
• The a- v O2 difference shows the amount of O2
extracted by tissues.
• During exercise a- vO2 difference increases up to 3
times the resting value.

RBC 2,3-DPG
• 2,3-DPG is a byproduct of glycolysis/
• RBCs contain no mitochondria.
– Rely on glycolysis
• 2,3-DPG increases with intense exercise
and may increase due to training.
• Helps deliver O2 to tissues

Store
• Myoglobin is an iron-containing globular
protein in skeletal and cardiac muscle.
• Stores O2 intramuscularly
• Myoglobin contains only 1 iron atom.
• O2 is released at low PO2.

CO2 in Physical Solution
• ~ 5% CO2 is transported as dissolved
CO2.
• The dissolved CO2 establishes the PCO2 of
the blood.

CO2 Transport as Bicarbonate
• CO2 in solution combines with water to
form carbonic acid.
• Carbonic anhydrase
– Zinc-containing enzyme within red blood cell
• Carbonic acid ionizes into hydrogen ions
and bicarbonate ions.

CO2 Transport as Carbamino
Compounds
• CO2 reacts directly with amino acid mq to
form carbamino compounds.
• Haldane Effect: Hb interaction with O2
reduces its ability to combine with CO2.
• This aids in releasing CO2 in the lungs.
