The primary structure of Haemoglobin is the [blank_start]sequence of amino acids[blank_end]. The secondary structure is when it folds to [blank_start]form an alpha helix[blank_end]. The tertiary structure is when it folds even more. The quaternary structure is when there is [blank_start]more than one polypeptide chain[blank_end]. The iron is a [blank_start]prosthetic group[blank_end] to the protien.

Label this diagram with the appropriate volumes. The Y axis is lung volume in litres and the X axis doesn't matter for this question.
During inspiration the [blank_start]external intercostal[blank_end] muscles, [blank_start]contract[blank_end] bringing the ribcage up and outwards. The diaphragm contracts moving [blank_start]down[blank_end]. This [blank_start]increases[blank_end] the thoraic cavity's volume and the lungs expand. This decreases the presure inside the lungs. The air therefore moves [blank_start]into[blank_end] the lungs.
