Please answer the Biochemistry questions below, Thankyou

In the figure below, the three curves represent hemoglobin oxygen binding at three different pH values, pH 7.2, pH 7.4, and pH 7.6. pH 7.2 pH 7.4 pH 7.6 100 90 80 70 60- s 40 30 E 20 10 10 pO2 (kPa) What conclusion can be drawn from these data about the oxygen binding of hemoglobin at different pH values? O Low pH favors the high affinity oxygen binding state. O Low pH favors the low affinity oxygen binding state. O Oxygen affinity is independent of pH O Oxygen binding is non-cooperative at low pH O oxygen binding is non-cooperative at high pH

Explanation / Answer

Q1.

As pH increases, the %saturaton of blood with O2 increases as well

So,

Low pH favours low affinity oxygen binding
