Identify the wrong statement with reference to the transport of oxygen
Option: 1 Binding of oxygen with hemoglobin is mainly related to the partial pressure of O2
Option: 2 The partial pressure of CO2 can interfere with O2 binding with hemoglobin
Option: 3 Higher H+ conc. In alveoli favors the formation of oxyhemoglobin
Option: 4 Low pCO2 in alveoli favors the formation of oxyhemoglobin
In alveoli, all the factors favorable for the formation of oxyhemoglobin are high pO2, low pCO2, less H + concentration and low temperature.
Hence, the correct option is (c).
