Question

State whether the following statements are true or false.
Oxyhaemoglobin can hold much less $C{O}_2$ in the form of carbaminohaemoglobin than what deoxyhaemoglobin can.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Binding of C02 is largely dependent on the partial pressure or the availability of oxygen. Oxyhaemolobin has a large content of 02 bound to it, which inhibits further binding of C02 while deoxyhaemoglobin is capable of it's transport due to the absence of this condition.

So, the correct option is 'True'.
