Oxygen associates with haemoglobin under which of the following conditions?
When partial pressure of oxygen become extremely low.
When partial pressure of carbon dioxide become high.
Under high pH and less H+ ion concentration.
Under high temperature.
Low partial pressure of oxygen, high partial pressure of CO2 and high temp. leads to Oxygen Dissociation.
P50 is the partial pressure of oxygen at which haemoglobin is 50% saturated. What will happen to theP50 value if there is an increase in the partial pressure of Carbon dioxide and what effect will it have on the oxygen affinity of haemoglobin (Hb)?
What is the partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide in atmospheric air?
