Questions And Correct Answers
Hb (hemoglobin) binds to CO (carbon monoxide) with a higher affinity than oxygen and
stabilizes the R (relaxed) state - answer✔True
When hemoglobin changes from the T to the R, it has a high affinity for oxygen - answer✔True
When hemoglobin changes from the R to T, it has a low affinity for oxygen - answer✔True
Cooperatively refers to - answer✔structural changes that increases the affinity for oxygen in
hemoglobin
When the oxygen concentration is high, the heme shape is planar. When the oxygen
concentration is low, the heme shape is bent shape. - answer✔True
The Bohr effect is a relationship between hemoglobin's oxygen binding behavior in conjunction
with the pH of the surroundings. When the pH is low, hemoglobin has low affinity for oxygen
and releases oxygen - answer✔True
Bohr effect is a relationship between hemoglobin's oxygen binding behavior in conjunction with
the pH of the surroundings. When the pH is high, hemoglobin has high affinity for oxygen and
binds oxygen. - answer✔True
Relative to the lungs, the pH in the peripheral tissues is lower, because the CO2 generated by
metabolism is converted to bicarbonate, which releases proton (H+) - answer✔True
The Bohr effect is a relationship between hemoglobin's oxygen binding behavior in conjunction
with the pH of the surroundings. When the H+ ion concentration increases, the pH of the solution
decreases. - answer✔True
Myoglobin stores oxygen, whereas hemoglobin transports oxygen. Myoglobin has a higher
affinity for oxygen compared to hemoglobin - answer✔True
Hemoglobin is an oxygen transport protein, whereas myoglobin is an oxygen storage protein.
They exhibit different binding curves when plotted on a graph with total partial pressure of the
oxygen (x-axis) plotted against the percentage saturation of hemoglobin (y-axis). What pattern of
