Assertion: Smoking causes oxygen deficiency in the body.
Reason: Carbon monoxide when inhaled while smoking, combines with haemoglobin to form chemically stable compound.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.
Oxygen binding to haemoglobin in blood is
directly proportional to the concentration of CO2 in the medium
inversely proportional to the concentration of CO2 in the medium
directly proportional to the concentration of CO in the medium
independent of the concentration of CO in the medium
B.
inversely proportional to the concentration of CO2 in the medium
Bohr's effect is the phenomenon whereby the affinity of the respiratory pigment i.e., haemoglobin in the blood for oxygen is reduced when the level of carbon dioxide is increased. An increase in carbon dioxide concentration makes the blood more acidic which results in decrease in the efficiency of the uptake of oxygen by haemoglobin molecules. This facilitates gaseous exchange, because more oxygen is released in the tissues where the amount of carbon dioxide is rising due to metabolic activity. In its reverse, more oxygen is taken up at the lungs where the amount of carbon dioxide is low.
