MCQ
$\ce{CO_2}$ dissociates from carbaminohaemoglobin when:
  • A
    $\ce{pCO_2}$ is high $\&\  \ce{pO_2}$ is low.
  • $\ce{pO_2}$ is high and $\ce{pCO_2}$ is low.
  • C
    $\ce{pCO_2}$ and $\ce{pO_2}$ are equal.
  • D
    None of the above.

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\ce{pO_2}$ is high and $\ce{pCO_2}$ is low.
In alveoli, pcoz is low and $\ce{pO_2}$ is high. Due to this $\ce{CO_2}$ dissociates from haemoglobin.
