Calculate the fractional saturation for hemoglobin when the partial pressure of oxygen is 72 mm Hgmm Hg. Assume hemoglobin is 50%% saturated with oxygen at a partial pressure of 24 mm Hgmm Hg and that the Hill coefficient is 3.

0.964 or 96.4 %

Explanation:

Hemoglobin is the red component of the red blood cell, it combines with oxygen to keep the body functional. The fractional saturation of hemoglobin is usually computed graphically but the hill equation gives a more specific value.

Calculations:

The hill equation can be expressed as;

 Where is the fractional saturation of oxygen =?;

            is the partial pressure of oxygen = 72 mm Hg;

            is the partial pressure of oxygen when the hemoglobin is 50%    

                 saturated  = 24 mm Hg and;

            h is the Hill coefficient = 3.

Substituting the values into the expression above we have;

=

 =

= 0.964

Therefore the fractional saturation is 0.964 or 96.4 %(multiply by 100)

the median of the data is 4.

step-by-step explanation:

the median means the middle number of a given number.

to decide which one is the median, arrange in ascending or descending order. but sometimes, you may find two(2) number in the middle, but it's easy, just add them together and divide by 2.

so,   determine the median of the data. 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9

it is already arranged, count 3 times forward and 3 backward and the one left is your answer.

2,3,3,4,5,7,9

our answer is 4.

hope this !
