Which of the following situations would result in the greatest degree of saturation for haemoglobin, assuming remains constant-
1. Increased levels, decreased temperature.
2. Increased levels, increased acidity.
3. Decreased levels, decreased acidity.
4. Increased levels, increased temperature.
Consider the characters of a respiratory control center in humans:
I. It is located in pons
II. It moderates the functions of respiratory rhythm center
III. Its absence results in an increase in depth of respiration
The respiratory control center is:
1. Pneumotaxic center
2. Apneustic center
3. Chemosensitive zone
4. Dorsal group
According to Bohr's effect
1. Hemoglobin oxygen binding affinity is inversely related to acidity.
2. Hemoglobin oxygen binding affinity is inversely related to concentration of .
3. Hemoglobin oxygen binding affinity is directly related to acidity.
4. Both 1 and 2.
1. | Inflammation of bronchioles; decreased respiratory surface |
2. | Increased number of bronchioles; increased respiratory surface |
3. | Increased respiratory surface; inflammation of bronchioles |
4. | Decreased respiratory surface; inflammation of bronchioles |

Asthma may be attributed to?
1. allergic reaction of the mast cells in the lungs
2. inflammation of the trachea
3. accumulation of fluid in the lungs
4. bacterial infection of the lungs
Two friends are eating together at a dining table. One of them suddenly starts coughing while swallowing some food. This coughing would have been due to improper movement of:
1. | diaphragm | 2. | neck |
3. | tongue | 4. | epiglottis |
The figure given below shows a small part of the human lung where exchange of gases takes place. In which one of the options given below, the one part A, B, C or D is correctly identified along with its function?
1. | A – Alveolar cavity – main site of exchange of respiratory gases |
2. | D – Capillary wall – exchange of O2 and CO2 takes place here |
3. | B – Red blood cell – transport of CO2 mainly. |
4. | C – Arterial capillary – passes oxygen to tissues |
