The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the transport of carbon dioxide (CO2) from tissues to lung alveoli, we can break down the process into several steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Medium of Transport**: - Blood serves as the medium for the transport of both oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2). **Hint**: Remember that blood is essential for transporting gases in the body. 2. **Transport Mechanisms for Oxygen**: - Approximately 97% of oxygen is transported by red blood cells (RBCs) in the form of oxyhemoglobin, while about 3% is dissolved in plasma. **Hint**: Focus on how oxygen is primarily carried by RBCs. 3. **Transport Mechanisms for Carbon Dioxide**: - Carbon dioxide is transported in three main forms: - **Carbaminohemoglobin**: About 20-25% of CO2 binds with hemoglobin in RBCs to form carbaminohemoglobin. - **Bicarbonate Ions**: Approximately 70% of CO2 is converted into bicarbonate ions (HCO3-) in the blood. - **Dissolved CO2**: Around 7% of CO2 is transported in a dissolved state in plasma. **Hint**: Remember the three forms of CO2 transport and their respective percentages. 4. **Identifying the Correct Statement**: - Based on the above information, we can summarize the transport of CO2: - 20-25% as carbaminohemoglobin - 70% as bicarbonate ions - 7% dissolved in plasma - The correct answer to the question about the transport of CO2 from tissues to lung alveoli is option D, which accurately reflects these transport mechanisms. **Hint**: Compare the options given in the question with the percentages discussed. ### Final Answer: The correct answer regarding the transport of carbon dioxide from tissue to lung alveoli is **D**.
