What causes oxygen to enter pulmonary capillaries from alveoli and to enter tissue cells from systemic capillaries? What is the pO2 and pCO2 in oxygenated blood compared to deoxygenated blood?
A difference in pO2 promotes oxygen diffusion. pO2 and pCO2 in oxygenated blood is 100mmHg and 40mmHg, while in deoxygenated blood it is 40mmHg and 45mmHg, respectively.
