PCO2, or partial pressure of carbon dioxide, is typically lowest in the atmosphere, particularly in areas with high vegetation or during times of photosynthesis, such as daylight hours when plants absorb CO2. Additionally, PCO2 is lower in the upper layers of the ocean compared to deeper waters, where respiration and decomposition release CO2. In general, regions with high air circulation and low human activity also tend to have lower PCO2 levels.

Who is lowest terms?
Nobody is lowest term. "Lowest term" is a mathematical expression, not a person!
What are the lowest multiple of 3 and 8?
The lowest multiple of 3 and 8 is 3. This is not the lowest common multiple.

Is Alveolar PCO2 identical to atmospheric PCO2?
No, it is higher or the CO2 would not move out of the lungs.
What regulates activities?
pco2
The relative PO2 and PCO2 in pulmonary arteries and veins and systemic arteries and veins?
In pulmonary arteries, PO2 is around 40 mmHg and PCO2 is around 46 mmHg. In pulmonary veins, PO2 is around 100 mmHg and PCO2 is around 40 mmHg. In systemic arteries, PO2 is around 100 mmHg and PCO2 is around 40 mmHg. In systemic veins, PO2 is around 40 mmHg and PCO2 is around 46 mmHg.
What are the units for pCO2?
The units for pCO2 are typically expressed in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) or in kilopascals (kPa).
When PCO2 declines bronchioles?
constrict
What type of membrane used in po2 and pco2 electrode?
Teflon is used for the membrane of pco2 electrodes as it allows for the diffusion of co2 but not ions.
Can PCO2 be 0 on sleep study?
No, PCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) cannot be 0 during a sleep study. A PCO2 of 0 would indicate a complete lack of carbon dioxide in the blood, which is not physiologically possible under normal circumstances. During sleep, PCO2 levels may decrease or fluctuate due to changes in breathing patterns, but they will always remain above 0. Normal arterial PCO2 levels typically range from 35 to 45 mmHg.
What gas is the major regulator of respiration?
PCO2
What is the normal range of PCO2 in kPa?
5.3
What is the relationship between pCO2 and pH in the human body?
In the human body, there is an inverse relationship between pCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) and pH. When pCO2 levels increase, pH decreases, leading to a more acidic environment. Conversely, when pCO2 levels decrease, pH increases, resulting in a more alkaline environment. This relationship is important for maintaining the body's acid-base balance and overall health.
What is normal arterial pCO2 in kPa?
5.3 kPa
What is the PCO2 of venous blood?
41-51 mmhg
