Question

Choose the right sequential phenomena among the following during the delivery of O2 from blood tissue.
P : Absorption of CO2 by the blood.
Q : Reaction of absorbed CO2 with H2O to form H2CO3 within RBC and its conversion into H+ and HCO−3 ions in the presence of carbonic anhydrase enzyme.
R : Reaction of absorbed CO2 with H2O in plasma to form H2CO3 and its conversion into H+ and HCO−3 ions in the presence of carbonic anhydrase enzyme.
S : Combination of H+ with heme portion of HbO2 to release O2.
T : Combination of HCO−3 with heme portion HbO2 to form reduced hemoglobin and release of O2.

Solution

The correct option is C P, Q, S

A. P, Q, T

Reason: In tissues, the concentration of co2 is more than that o2. The co2 moves into the blood and reaches hemoglobin in RBCs. In RBCs, an enzyme is called carbonic anhydrase. The presence of these ions make o2 to leave the hemoglobin and so oxyhemoglobin complex is broken.
