Indicate if the following is associated with anemic hypoxia, histotoxic hypoxia, hypoxemic hypoxia, or ischemic hypoxia.
High altitude training and mountain climbing would be examples where the body encounters ________ as a result of lower than normal partial pressures of oxygen.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Hypoxemic hypoxia.

Explanation:

The proper amount of oxygen in the body is important for the regular working of the tissues and organs. The deficiency of oxygen in the body can cause severe respiratory disease.

At high altitude on mountains the partial pressure of the oxygen is quite low, the body suffers from hypoxemic hypoxia means the low content of oxygen in the body causes hypoxia. The individual may feel tired, vomiting and altitude sickness as well.

Thus, the answer is hypoxemic hypoxia.
