Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases

Latest questions in this category.

6 questions

Removal of carotid bodies would cause breaking point to be:

The correct answer is C: Rectum. In Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases, this idea is central because it matches how the body actually works in everyday teaching examples. Put simply, Rectum is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases. That is why Rectum is the option that holds up when you check it against basic physiology. When you revise, say the answer out loud with one short reason attached; that sticks better than rote lists. Remember that physiology questions reward precise language: name the process, the location, and the outcome, then match that to the option text.

Ref: Animal physiology is Unit 7 of the CSIR NET Life Science Syllabus, covering core body systems. It accounts for roughly 10% of the total marks in Sections B and C.

Breath-holding breaking point is mainly triggered by rise in:

Arterial PCO2 (B) is the right choice. This sits at the heart of Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases: the wording points straight to what is happening in the tissue or organ system. A useful study habit is to ask what the structure or process is for: the functional job described in the stem is exactly what Arterial PCO2 does in Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases. That reasoning supports Arterial PCO2. One solid sentence about why this works is enough for recall — you do not need a long essay for every MCQ. When you practise, cover the choices first, write Arterial PCO2 from memory, then reveal the letter — that habit builds real recall for Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases.

Gas that diffuses fastest across alveolar membrane is:

Correct option is D, N2O. In Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases, the accurate description is N2O, and that is what you should commit to memory. Keep the definition tight and the role clear — N2O is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases. Then N2O is the answer you can defend. Check yourself by covering the options and writing the answer first, then matching the letter — that builds confidence. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto N2O.

PCO2 of venous blood returning from tissues is about:

Correct option is B, 45 mm Hg. In Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases, the accurate description is 45 mm Hg, and that is what you should commit to memory. Keep the definition tight and the role clear — 45 mm Hg is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases. Then 45 mm Hg is the answer you can defend. Check yourself by covering the options and writing the answer first, then matching the letter — that builds confidence. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto 45 mm Hg.

Carbaminohemoglobin formation occurs by binding of CO2 to:

The correct answer is B: Amino terminal of globin. In Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases, this idea is central because it matches how the body actually works in everyday teaching examples. Put simply, Amino terminal of globin is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases. That is why Amino terminal of globin is the option that holds up when you check it against basic physiology. When you revise, say the answer out loud with one short reason attached; that sticks better than rote lists. Remember that physiology questions reward precise language: name the process, the location, and the outcome, then match that to the option text.

Haldane effect explains increased CO2 transport when hemoglobin is:

Answer: B) Deoxygenated. For Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases, once you lock onto the key mechanism or definition, Deoxygenated is the clear fit. If you restate the concept in your own words, Deoxygenated is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Respiratory System; Exchange of Gases. So Deoxygenated is the clean, accurate selection. If a similar stem appears later, start from the same core fact and you will land on the same kind of answer. In class notes, highlight this same phrase next to the related diagram so the wording and the picture reinforce each other.
