Is this statement correct or incorrect? Explain. During strenuous exercise, the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the right. This rightward shift reflects an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and favors loading of O2 onto hemoglobin in the lungs. 2. Is this statement correct or incorrect? Explain. Compared to hemoglobin, myoglobin has a lower binding affinity for O2 and a higher O2 binding capacity, two characteristics that allow myoglobin to efficiently provide skeletal muscle cells with a readily-accessible reservoir of O2.arrow_forward
- In sickle cell disease: O poor oxygen binding causes deformation of red blood cells a mutation in the B-chain of hemoglobin causes hemoglobin to polymerize into fibres that distort red blood cells.

True False It is the Na+ channel-driven spontaneous depolarization that is affected by sympathetic and parasympathetic inputs to speed up or slow down the firing rate of the SA node and other conductive cells. True Falsearrow_forwardWhen a person develops a fever, which of the following statements hemoglobin saturation are correct? - Modify the structure of hemoglobin and decrease its affernity for O2 - Can shift the O2-hemoglobin dissociation curve to the right - Decrease O2 unloading occurs in the tissue - Modify the structure of hemoglobin and increase its affernity for O2 - Can shift the O2 hemoglobin dissociation curve to the left - Enhance O2 unloading occurs in the tissuearrow_forward
