If there were little to no Chloride in the blood, what would happen to CO2 transport and why? Select one: O a. CO2 transport would not change because chloride is not part of the carbonic anhydrase reaction O b. CO2 transport would decline because H+ would not be able to bind to hemoglobin O c. CO2 transport would decline because HCO3 wouldn't be able to exit the red blood cell thus inhibiting the carbonic anhydrase reaction O d. CO2 transport would increase because HCO3 would be able to exit the red blood cell more freely
