Why is hemoglobin an effective respiratory pigment?
The Bohr effect and cooperative binding of oxygen to hemoglobin is what makes it an effective carrier of oxygen from the lungs to the peripheral tissues. What is cooperative binding? The first oxygen bind less strongly to oxygen then does the subsequent oxygen molecules (hemoglobin has four binding zones for oxygen). This means that the binding curve is fairly steep. The Bohr effect is a negative effect on binding of oxygen by hemoglobin in the presence of increased pH. Since peripheral tissues release C02 it increases the local pH releasing the oxygen. After the first oxygen is released the remaining oxygen molecules are quickly disassociated from hemoglobin thus delivering the oxygen to the tissue in need of oxygen.
What organizational structure of Cao Daoi is influenced strongly by?
Roman Catholicism
The organizational structure of Cao Dai is influenced strongly by?
The organizational structure of Cao Dai is strongly influenced by a hierarchy that mirrors the celestial realm, with a supreme being at the top, followed by lesser powers and earthly authorities. This structure is designed to reflect the divine order and teachings of the religion.

What is more dangerous CO or CO2?
Carbon monoxide binds very strongly to the iron atoms in hemoglobin, the principal oxygen-carrying compound in blood. The affinity between CO and hemoglobin is 200 times stronger than the affinity between hemoglobin and oxygen. When CO binds to the hemoglobin it cannot be released nearly as readily as oxygen would be. The preferential binding of carbon monoxide to heme iron is the main reason for carbon
Carbon monoxide gas binds strongly to the iron atom of hemoglobin in blood how does this action cause harm to the body?
This bonding dose not allow for the bonding of oxygen to the hemoglobin. Therefore the blood is unable to bring much needed oxygen to the body. The lac of oxygen leads to death.
Is Strontium oxide acidic or basic?
Strongly basic.As the size of 2+ cations increase down the alkaline group basicity increases.
Which gas binds to hemoglobin more strongly than oxygen?
Carbon monoxide. It has ten times higher binding efficiency to iron in the heme group than oxygen does
