A native to Peruvian Andes is being studied at his home elevation of 15000ft.He is found to hav an arterial pO2 40mmHg and O2 saturation of 75%and arterial O2 content is 20 mlO2/dl.An inc in which of the followin make it possible
for the arterial O2 to be normaleven though the arterial pO2 and O2 saturation are far below the typical valve of person livin at sea level?
A.Capillary density
B.Hematocrit
C.Hyperventilation
D.Pulmonary diffusing Capacity
E>Ratio of ventilatory capacity to body mass
