Identify the wrong statement with reference to
transport of oxygen.
- ABinding of oxygen with haemoglobin is mainly related to partial pressure of O2
- BPartial pressure of CO2 can interfere with O2 binding with haemoglobin
- CHigher H+ conc. in alveoli favours the formation of oxyhaemoglobin
- DLow pCO2 in alveoli favours the formation of oxyhaemoglobin
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
Higher H+ concentration favours the dissociation of oxygen from oxyhaemoglobin in tissues. In the alveoli, high pO2, low pCO2, lesser H+ concentration and lower temperature favour formation of oxyhaemoglobin.
