Question

Oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve is useful in studying the effect of which of the following on the binding of oxygen to haemoglobin?

Easy

A

$H^{+}$ concentration only
B

p ${CO}_{2}$ only
C

Temperature only
D

p ${CO}_{2}$ , pH and temperature

Solution

Oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve is useful in studying the effect of p ${CO}_{2}$ , pH and temperature on the binding of oxygen to haemoglobin. High p ${CO}_{2}$ , low pH and high temperature shift the curve to the right while low p ${CO}_{2}$ , high pH and low temperature shift the curve to the left.
