What will happen if the levels of CO2 in the bloodstream increases?
1. Hemoglobin-oxygen affinity will go up
2. Hemoglobin-oxygen affinity will go down
3. Hemoglobin-oxygen affinity will be unchanged
please briefly explain the answer
Answer
2. Hemoglobin-oxygen affinity will go down
Explanation : Increase in CO2 concentration in the blood shifts the oxygen hemoglobin dissociation curve towards right side that reduces oxygen hemoglobin affinity. As a result more oxygens are released at tissue level. This compensates the demand of oxygen by the tissue.
Due to increased CO2, it competes with oxygen for binding to Hb hence oxygen affinity is reduced.

What is the effect of pH on hemoglobin? How does it impact affinity for oxygen? What is the effect of CO2 concentration on hemoglobin? How does it impact affinity for oxygen?
A. In the chart above, where the solid line represents the binding affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen with NO drug treatment. Which curve above (dotted or dashed) represents the affinity of hemoglobin of oxygen after drug treatment? Explain. B. How does the drug effect hemoglobin’s affinity for O2 and how would this achieve the desired patient result? Increases Affinity, Decreases Affinity, No Change to Affinity? Explain. With hospital funding going down, local hospitals are looking for any way to cut...
Oxygen binds tbone subunit of hemoglobin. This increases the affinity of the other subunits to oxygen. This is an example of allosteric activation allosteric inhibition cooperativity None of these Tay-Sachs is a recessive lethal disease. If two people are both carriers for this disease, what is the probability their child will be affected? 25% 75% 50% 100%
2. What the mechanisms of affecting Hb (hemoglobin) affinity to O2 -- by O2, CO2, CO, H+? Please explain in detail.
Regarding the effects of the affinity of hemoglobin when 2,3-biphosphoglycerate (BPG) is regulating, analyze the biochemical mechanisms that occur to cause the catch and release of oxygen in this manner. Which of the following structural changes occur when deoxyhemoglobin binds to oxygen? Choose the two correct answers and briefly explain why the other two are incorrect: 1.) The proximal histidine (His F8) moves helix F towards the planar heme. 2.) The heme releases CO2 from the other subunits. 3.) A...
104 Homework 6 4. (15 points): Hemoglobin (Hb) is the main oxygen transport protein in the blood. Each hemoglobin molecule can transport four oxygen atoms at a time, one at each of its four iron-based binding sites. The binding of O2 to hemoglobin is a pH-dependent equilibrium, simplified as: Use Le Chatelier's Principle to answer the following questions: a) What form of hemoglobin, HbH" or Hb(Ojle, would be favored in the lungs? What form would be favored in the cells...
please explain 3) Consider this figure, which shows oxygen binding to hemoglobin under various conditions. 1.0 B 0.5 po2 a) If B is normal hemoglobin what could lead to curve hemoglobin A. (2 pt) b) If B is normal hemoglobin what could lead to curve hemoglobin C. (2 pt) c) Which curve shows the hemog Iobin with the highest O2 affinity? (2 pt) d) Which curve shows the hemoglobin with the lowest Pso? (2 pt) (Saturation
please answer all. 13. [8 pts) Supply the missing word (s) in each of the following questions. Choose from increase, decrease, or remain unchanged. Increasing the concentration of 2, 3 BPG causes the affinity for oxygen in fetal hemoglobin to Decreasing the pH of a solution of hemoglobin causes the affinity for carbon dioxide to Increasing the concentration of 2,3 BPG causes the affinity for oxygen in adult hemoglobin to Increase the pCO2 from 10 to 40 torts causes the...
The amount of oxygen released from hemoglobin in systemic circulation SATA: 1 increases as blood pressure increases 2 increases as the PCO^2 in the tissues increases 3 decreases as body temperature decreases 4 is dependent upon the tissue level of metabolic activity under normal conditions 5 increases as blood becomes more acidic
