Question:

What factors influence oxygen dissociation?

Author: Donata Nshimyicizanye



Answer:

Increased H+, CO2 and temperature increase the tendency of haemoglobin to offload oxygen. Bohr Effect - the effect of CO2 and H+ Promotes O2 offloading in the peripheral tissues (where PO2 is high) Promotes 02 loading in the lungs (where PCO2 is low)
