Detailed Solution

Solution:

Concept: Hemoglobin and carbon monoxide combine to generate carboxyhemoglobin, which cannot carry oxygen throughout the body. 

This causes carbon monoxide poisoning, which eventually results in death. 

Red blood cells create carboxyhemoglobin, also known as carboxyhemoglobin, or carboxyhemoglobin, when exposed to carbon monoxide. Its symbol is COHb or HbCO.

Hence option 1 is correct answer
