At the alveolar site, the reaction catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase moves in the direction of:
1. Formation of \(HCO^-_3\)and \(H^+\)
2. Formation of \(CO_2\) and \(H_2O\)
3. Binding of \(O_2\) to \(CO_2\)
4. Dissociation of \(CO_2\) into carbon and oxygen

Which of the following will most likely occur during heavy exercise?
| 1. | Blood pH will decrease in the active tissues. |
| 2. | Less oxygen will be delivered to the tissues due to increased cardiac contractions resulting in increased blood velocity. |
| 3. | Capillaries surrounding contracting skeletal muscles will constrict to allow increased freedom of movement. |
| 4. | The respiratory system will deliver less nitrogen to the blood. |

Carbon dioxide partial pressure:
| 1. | increases in the blood as it travels from the systemic venules to the inferior vena cava. |
| 2. | increases in the blood as it travels from the pulmonary arteries to the pulmonary veins. |
| 3. | is greater in the blood in the systemic capillary beds than in the alveoli of the lungs. |
| 4. | is greater in the blood in the systemic capillary beds than in the systemic tissues. |
