Summary Introduction
To review:
The unloading of oxygen in hemoglobin is more as the blood moves via the capillaries of the active tissues like skeletal muscle during exercise as compared to rest.
Introduction:
Partial pressure is the vital factor, which is considered to determine the percent of oxygen saturation of the hemoglobin. When completely reduced hemoglobin converts into oxyhaemoglobin, it is known to be saturated completely.

When oxygenated blood (Hemoglobin nearly 100% saturated), reaches resting systemic tissues, what percentage of the available oxygen is unloaded from hemoglobin? 100%, 75%, 50%, or 25%?
The ability of hemoglobin to bind oxygen decreases with decreasing oxygen concentration and also decreases with increasing carbon dioxide concentration. What effect do these phenomena have on the delivery of oxygen to tissues?
in thalassemia, a type of anemia, the hemoglobin molecule is malformed. The malformation prevents hemoglobin from carrying and delivering the correct amount of oxygen to the cells. Which important physiological concept does this example illustrate?
