Oxygen binds to the Fe(II). This causes a shift of the Fe(II) to be in plane with the porphyrin ring and it pulls the His in, which all increase the oxygen affinity.

When hemoglobin is not bound to oxygen it appears blue?
When hemoglobin is not combined with oxygen, it appears dark red.
What is the difference between deoxyhemoglobin and reduced hemoglobin?
Reduced hemoglobin does not have the oxygen molecules that oxyhemoglobin has. :)
What is the difference in color in oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin?
deoxyhemoglobin is dark red, burgundy. oxyhemoglobin is bright red.
How many oxygen molecules bind to myoglobin?
1 Each myoglobin molecule has one heme group and can bind one oxygen molecule. Hemoglobin on the other hand can bind up to 4 molecules of oxygen.
What color is deoxyhemoglobin?
blue
What does hemoglobin bind with?
Mostly oxygen.
Does carbon monoxide bind to hemoglobin or oxygen better?
Carbon monoxide bind easily to hemoglobin.
Why 1g of Hb bind to 1.34ml of Oxygen instead 1.39 at full saturation?
1g of Hb can bind with 1.34mL of oxygen instead 1.39 at full saturation because it does so at normal oxygen capacity.
What are the two chemicals that bind with hemoglobin?
Oxygen is one
What does hemogoblin bind easily to?
