Question
Below is a fractional saturation curve for O2 binding to adult hemoglobin. Assume that curve Y represents a system at pH 7.4 and with a normal physiological level of 2,3-BPG. Curve Z represents a system that ___________________
Curve Z:
|
is at pH 7.4 with a higher than normal physiological level of 2,3-BPG.
|
|
is at pH 7.4 with a normal physiological level of 2,3-BPG but with a decreased level of CO2. |
|
has a higher pH with a normal physiological level of 2,3-BPG. |
|
has a higher pH with a lower than physiological level of 2,3-BPG. |
