Question

B. What is the % saturation of Hb with oxygen in Charles’ Blood? C. Based on the graph above, what is the max amount of O2 (ml/100 ml blood) that can be carried in normal arterial blood? D. Based on the graph above, what is the max amount of O2(ml/100 ml blood)? E. Why is the value from question 5 so low given that PO2 is normal? 4. The oxygen-hemoglobin saturation curve shows Charles, arterial blood (50% HbCO) and normal arterial blood (2% HbCO). HbCO is Hb with CO bound to it. 100 2%HbCO 80 - 15 3 60 10 C What is the percent saturation of Hb with oxygen in the normal o arterial blood?
