Respiration

04/02/2013 by jgluvna

In order for humans to survive our bodies must supply our tissues with oxygen and simultaneously remove carbon dioxide. Compare oxygen and carbon dioxide transfer rates in tissues and vascular components within the human body. How or would these rates differ in a athlete and a smoker?

Theory

  • Derivative as an instantaneous rate of change (Neuhauser, Claudia. Calculus for Biology and Medicine. New Jersey: Prentice Hall, 2000. 95)
  • Diffusion (Neuhauser, Claudia. Calculus for Biology and Medicine. New Jersey: Prentice Hall, 2000. 552)
