In our discussSion of oxygen binding, we saw how oxygen affinity may be affected by temperature. The book mentions that "temperature effects may become a problem in the hypothermic limbs of mammals in Arctic climates," (pg. 650) but it doesn't explain why. Given what you understand about oxygen binding affinity and temperature, why would these animals have an issue? O The cold temperatures increase the binding affinity of oxygen to myoglobin. ) The cold temepratures decrease the binding affinity of oxygen to hemoglobin. The cold temperatures increase the binding affinity of oxygen to hemoglobin. The cold temperatures decrease the binding affinity of oxygen to myoglobin.
