Carbon monoxide Methene Oxygen Nitrogen dioxidearrow_forwardPlace a single word into each sentence to make it correct saturation The relationship between hemoglobin and Po2 is shown by an oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve. rises lowers At low Po2, the curve slowly load When the curve rises there is a rapid increase in oxygen loading. deficiency When the first heme group binds a molecule of oxygen, changes conformation to accept a second carbon dioxide Oxygen. Eventually at high Po2 levels, the hemoglobin approaches 100 % saturation and can not hemoglobin more oxygen.arrow_forwardWhich element in the blood is round and colourless?

Each iron atom can form six coordination bonds. Two of these bonds are formed between iron and oxygen. Molecular oxygen binds reversibly to Fe²+ in heme. Heme is composed of an organic protoporphyrin component and a metal atom. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron atom. Each hemoglobin or myoglobin molecule can bind four oxygen molecules. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron atom.arrow_forwardHelp pleasearrow_forwardarrow_back_iosSEE MORE QUESTIONSarrow_forward_ios
