No... haemoglobin does not transport carbon dioxide...coz it is our waste which we breathe out....we only take oxygen and after combining with haemoglobin it becomes oxyhaemoglobin.....but if we breathe in pollution for long..... it forms carboxyhaemoglobin.... and it's very harmful to us.

∙ 13y agoCarbaminohemoglobin (or Carbaminohaemoglobin, also known as carbhemoglobin and carbohemoglobin) is a compound of hemoglobin and carbon dioxide, and is one of the forms in which carbon dioxide exists in the blood. When carbon dioxide binds to hemoglobin, carbaminohemoglobin is formed, lowering hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen via the Bohr Effect. In the absence of oxygen, unbound hemoglobin molecules have a greater chance of becoming carbaminohemoglobin. This is known as the Haldane Effect. The veins, which carry deoxygenated blood back to the right atrium of the heart appear bluish due to the distinctive blue color of carbaminohemoglobin.
The nature of carbon dioxide's binding to hemoglobin to form carbaminohemoglobin is not always agreed upon by biochemistry texts. Four molecules of oxygen can bind to one molecule of hemoglobin. It is suggested by some that hemoglobin can also bind to four molecules of carbon dioxide. Among those who share this belief, it is generally agreed that each molecule of carbon dioxide must bind to a region on the heme monomer which a molecule of oxygen would not typically use. Other biochemistry texts claim that carbon dioxide does not bind to the hemoglobin tetramer at all and can only be found floating in the cytoplasm of the red blood cells. Research is currently being conducted in order to ascertain the truth of the matter.

∙ 13y agoHemoglobin, IS the carrier of oxygen and carbon dioxide. It is not very passive, it reacts to certain factors (2,3 DPG) when deciding to let go of that oxygen to your tissues and pick up the trash (CO2), then off and away in the bloodstream, travelling as the Red Blood Cell, hemoglobin travels back to your lungs for a breather... releasing that CO2 and picking up some O2! :)

How do you use hemoglobin in a sentence?
all red blood cells carry hemoglobin to help transport oxygen.
What do plants make the help of carbon dioxide?
Respiration - make carbon in carbon dioxide
What occurs when carbon monoxide enters the lungs?
When air is inspired, it goes into the lungs, spreads across the alveoli which are like air sacs, and increases the oxygen content in the blood (through capillaries) with the help of hemoglobin. At the same time, carbon dioxide is being transferred into the alveoli by the capillaries used to transfer blood. The oxygen rich blood is sent through the pulmonary vein into the right side of the heart where it is transferred to the rest of the body. Meanwhile, the carbon dioxide that had been collected by the air sacs in the lungs is expired.
Can carbon dioxide help to stop global warming?
No, carbon dioxide (CO2) can not help to stop global warming. CO2 emissions are the main reason why global warming is happening, released by the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity.
