C. Henry’s law states that “the amount of gas dissolved is proportional to the partial pressure of that gas”
D. the chloride shift is “the diffusion of HCO3 - in to the cell, with the outward diffusion of Cl- ions to maintain electrical neutrality”
E. the Haldane effect is that deoxygenation of the blood increases its ability to carry CO2
