• C. $2.34$$ml$of oxygen
• D. $1.5$$ml$ of oxygen

Answer 1

The correct option is A

$1.34$$ml$of oxygen

The correct option is A

Explanation of the correct option :
1. Hemoglobin is an iron-containing protein found in red blood cells that carries oxygen and gives blood its red color.
2. Oxygen binds to hemoglobin ($\mathrm{Hb}$) then carried to different parts of the body. This is called the oxygen-carrying capacity of hemoglobin which is $1.34$$ml$$gm$of $\mathrm{Hb}$.

Final answer: Hence,$1$ gm of Hemoglobin can hold $1.34ml$ of oxygen.
