The _____________ of hemoglobin is defined as the ratio of hemoglobin with bound oxygen to total hemoglobin.
Increasing concentrations of either 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) or protons (H +) cause a ____________ ( rightward OR leftward) shift of the hemoglobin/oxygen binding curve. However, the mechanisms by which these two substances mediate this effect are distinct. Compare & contrast the way by which BPG and protons interact with hemoglobin and thereby influence its structure and function
True or False: The low pH of blood in the lungs causes a shift in oxygen's binding to hemoglobin
favoring its release.
