Each of the following statements briefly describes one of Hb an allosteric interactions. Which of the
statements below are false?
A drop in the [H+] of blood plasma would lead to a decrease Hb affinity for O₂.
An increase in the partial pressure of CO₂ in the tissues would lead to a decrease Hb affinity for O₂-
If you inhaled CO for an extended period of time, at partial pressures 1000 fold higher than normal indoor
atmospheric pressure, your body would have a difficult time delivering oxygen to your tissues.
When the partial pressure of oxygen is low within the atmosphere, your body responds by increasing the
biological activity of Hb's negative effectors.
