Description: Dalton’s law
Each gas in a mixture of gases exerts its own pressure as if no other gases were present
Henry’s law
The quantity of a gas that will dissolve in a liquid is proportional to the partial pressure of the gas and its solubility coefficient when the temperature remains constant

External and Internal Respiration


During external respiration, oxygen will diffuse from the alveoli into the pulmonary capillaries
CO2 moves in the opposite direction
During internal respiration, oxygen will diffuse from the systemic capillaries into the tissue
CO2 moves in the opposite direction
