Question

Define Bohr effect and Haldane effect.

✓

Answer

Bohr effect: Bohr effect is the shift of oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve due to change in partial pressure of $CO_2$ in blood.
Haldane effect: The amount of $CO_2$ that can be transported in the blood is influenced by the percent saturation of haemoglobin with oxygen. The lower the amount of oxyhaemoglobin $(Hb-O_2)$, the higher the $CO_2$ carrying capacity of the blood, this relationship is known as the Haldane effect.
