The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the factors that favor the formation of oxyhemoglobin, we need to analyze each of the options provided: 1. **Understanding Oxyhemoglobin Formation**: - Oxyhemoglobin is formed when hemoglobin binds with oxygen. This process is influenced by various factors including the partial pressure of oxygen, carbon dioxide levels, hydrogen ion concentration, and temperature. 2. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Option A: Low CO2**: - Low levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) favor the formation of oxyhemoglobin. When CO2 levels are low, the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen increases, promoting the binding of oxygen. - **Option B: Low H+ concentration**: - A low concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) corresponds to a higher pH (less acidic), which also favors the formation of oxyhemoglobin. High acidity (high H+ concentration) would reduce the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen. - **Option C: Low oxygen tension**: - Low oxygen tension means there is a low partial pressure of oxygen. This condition does not favor the formation of oxyhemoglobin; instead, it promotes the release of oxygen from hemoglobin (dissociation). - **Option D: Low temperature**: - Low temperatures favor the binding of oxygen to hemoglobin. Higher temperatures would promote the release of oxygen. 3. **Conclusion**: - Among the options provided, the only factor that does not support the formation of oxyhemoglobin is **C: low oxygen tension**. This is because low oxygen tension leads to a decreased affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen, promoting dissociation rather than association. ### Final Answer: **C: Low oxygen tension**
