French to English: Respiration interne/Internal Respiration General field: Science Detailed field: Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-)
Source text - French Respiration interne
La respiration interne est un échange gazeux qui se produit au niveau des tissus corporels. Semblable à la respiration externe, la respiration interne se produit également en tant que simple diffusion due à un gradient de pression partielle. Cependant, les gradients de pression partiels sont opposés à ceux présents sur la membrane respiratoire. La pression partielle de l'oxygène dans les tissus est faible, environ 40 mm Hg, car l'oxygène est utilisé en continu pour la respiration cellulaire. En revanche, la pression partielle d'oxygène dans le sang est d'environ 100 mm Hg. Cela crée un gradient de pression qui dissocie l'oxygène de l'hémoglobine, diffuse hors du sang, traverse l'espace interstitiel et pénètre dans le tissu.
L'hémoglobine qui contient peu d'oxygène perd beaucoup de son éclat, de sorte que le sang qui revient vers le cœur est plus bourgogne. Considérant que la respiration cellulaire produit continuellement du dioxyde de carbone, la pression partielle du dioxyde de carbone est plus faible dans le sang que dans le tissu, provoquant la diffusion du dioxyde de carbone hors du tissu, traversant le liquide interstitiel et pénétrant dans le sang. Il est ensuite transporté vers les poumons, soit lié à l'hémoglobine, dissous dans le plasma, ou sous une forme convertie.
Par le temps que le sang retourne au cœur, la pression partielle de l'oxygène est revenue à environ 40 mm Hg, et la pression partielle du dioxyde de carbone est revenue à environ 45 mm Hg. Le sang est ensuite pompé vers les poumons pour être oxygéné à nouveau pendant la respiration externe.
Translation - English Internal Respiration
Internal respiration is gaseous exchange that occurs in body tissues. Like external respiration, internal respiration also occurs by simple diffusion due to a partial pressure gradient. However, the partial pressure gradient is opposite to that of the respiratory membrane. The partial pressure of oxygen in tissues is low, about 40 mmHg, because oxygen is continuously being used for cell respiration. On the other hand, the partial pressure of oxygen in blood is about 100 mmHg. This creates a pressure gradient that causes oxygen to dissociate from hemoglobin and diffuse out of blood, across the interstitial space and into the tissue.
The hemoglobin, which contains little oxygen, loses much of its brightness, so that blood that returns to the heart is a more purplish red. Considering that cell respiration continuously produces carbon dioxide, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is lower in blood than in the tissue, causing carbon dioxide to diffuse out of the tissue, across interstitial fluid and into blood. It is then carried to the lungs, either bound to hemoglobin, dissolved in plasma or converted to another form.
By the time the blood returns to the heart, the partial pressure of oxygen is back to about 40 mmHg, and the partial pressure of carbon dioxide is back to about 45 mmHg. Blood is then pumped to the lungs to be oxygenated again during external respiration.

Experience
Years of experience: 9. Registered at ProZ.com: Aug 2017.
I grew up in a bilingual country where I was exposed to both French and English, hence my excellent mastery of my source language. I have a master`s degree in translation which, given my background, makes me very good at what I do.
I studied microbiology at university, then obtained a postgraduate diploma to teach biology, which I have been teaching for six years now.
As a science teacher and translator with five years` experience in the industry, I am able to handle a variety of texts, and am particularly interested in science-related fields. I do not accept to work in fields which I do not master, and do not work into my source language because I could not guarantee the quality of the work.
My strength lies in the fact that I provide translations that flow naturally, thanks to my excellent writing skills, research ability and mastery of my fields of expertise. Also, I am available to work every day of the week and do not charge any extra rates on weekends. My rates are generally very reasonable.
I have translated medical records, social media content, insurance documents, birth certificates, academic testimonials and transcripts, brochures, speeches, news articles and patents, among other things. I am able to handle a lot more and have no problem with taking a test before the job if necessary.
Please contact me through email if you are interested in working with me.
