What are the advantages of heamoglobin? |
|
Answer» HAEMOGLOBIN is able to increase the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood. Due to the fact that each haemoglobin molecule contains 4 haem units, each molecule can BOND to 4 oxygen molecules at once. Hence MUCH more oxygen can be TRANSPORTED around the blood in haemoglobin, rather than being dissolved in plasma. GM☺ |
