- 1. Is this statement correct or incorrect? Explain. During strenuous exercise, the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the right. This rightward shift reflects an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and favors loading of O2 onto hemoglobin in the lungs. 2. Is this statement correct or incorrect? Explain. Compared to hemoglobin, myoglobin has a lower binding affinity for O2 and a higher O2 binding capacity, two characteristics that allow myoglobin to efficiently provide skeletal muscle cells with a readily-accessible reservoir of O2.arrow_forwardHelp Save & Exit Andrew has lived his whole life in San Diego, CA at sea level. One summer in college he gets a job as a field biologist in the Colorado Rockies (elevation 7500 ft. above sea level). The first week he is in Colorado he experiences altitude sickness from the change in atmosphere. Altitude sickness is characterized by fatigue and shortness of breath as a result of the thinner air which contains less oxygen. a. How does Andrew's fatigue and shortness of breath relate to the cellular respiration pathway? be. b. What would you expect to find if you test the level of lactic acid in Andrew's blood?
