Does Hemoglobin carry CO2?!


Question: Does Hemoglobin carry CO2!?
Answers:
Like XO said!.Yes it does!.The CO2 bound to hemoglobin does not bind to the same site as oxygen!. Instead, it combines with the N-terminal groups on the four globin chains!. However, because of allosteric effects on the hemoglobin molecule, the binding of CO2 decreases the amount of oxygen that is bound for a given partial pressure of oxygen!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

no, hemoblobin is the oxygen carrying component in blood!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes, on the way back to the lungs to xchange it by O2Www@Answer-Health@Com
