Determination of oxygen carrier by hemoglobinis done by
A ) Partial pressure of Sulpher dioxide
B ) Partial pressure of Sulpher
C ) Partial pressure of carbon dioxide ✅
D ) All of these
Explanation:
Haemoglobin is a red coloured iron containing pigment present in the RBCs. Oxygen can bind with haemoglobin in a reversible manner to form oxyhaemoglobin. Each haemoglobin molecule can carry a maximum of four molecules of oxygen. Binding of oxygen with haemoglobin is primarily related to partial pressure of oxygen. Partial pressure of carbon dioxide, hydrogen ion concentration (pH) and temperature are the other factors, which can affect this binding.
