Next SectionHemoglobin Carbonation & Protonation

Concept #1: Hemoglobin Binding to CO2 and H+

Concept #2: Hb Releases O2 in the Tissues. 

Concept #3: Hb Binds O2 in the Lungs

Practice: In the lungs, the _________ pressure of CO2 causes hemoglobin to _________ CO2 and H+. The _________ pressure of O2 causes O2 to _________ hemoglobin, allowing for its transportation to the tissues.

Practice: Which of the following explains why hemoglobin in RBCs binds to O 2 in the lungs but releases O2 in muscle tissues? (Select all that apply).

Practice: How is the vast majority of carbon dioxide transported in the blood from the tissues to the lungs?
