Define Bohr effect and Haldane effect.
Advertisements
उत्तर
- Bohr effect: Bohr effect is the shift of oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve due to change in partial pressure of CO2 in blood.
- Haldane effect: The amount of CO2 that can be transported in the blood is influenced by the percent saturation of haemoglobin with oxygen. The lower the amount of oxyhaemoglobin (Hb-O2), the higher the CO2 carrying capacity of the blood, this relationship is known as the Haldane effect.
