Which of the following statements are true/false A.The blood transports CO_(2) comparatively easily because of its higher solubility B.Approximately 8.9% of CO_(2) is transported being dissovled in the plasma of blood C. The carbon dioxide produced by the tissues, diffuses passively into the blood stream and passes into red blood corpsucles and react with water to form H_(2)CO_(3) D.The chlorde ions diffuse from palsma into the erythrocytes to maintain ionic balance

High percentage of CO_(2) is transported in dissolved form as compared to O_(2) This is because

Total percentage of CO_2 transported through blood plasma is

[A] : CO_2 is mainly transported in plasma as HCO_3^(-) ions [R]: The enzyme carbonic anhydrase in RBC speeds the formation of HCO_3 ions

Assertion :- Major part of CO_(2) is transported in the form of sodium bicarbonate. Reason :- 0.3 ml of CO_(2) is transported per 100ml of blood in dissolved state in plasma of blood.

Total percentage of CO_2 which is transported through blood plasma is (a) 0.07 (b) 0.7 (c) 0.77 (d) 0.23

During CO_(2) transport, HCO_(3)^(-) diffuses from erythrocytes to plasma and in turn upsets the ionic balance momentraily. In order to keep the ionic balance, an equal number of Cl^(-) pass into the erythrocyes from plasma. The process is known as

In lungs there is definite exchange of ions between RBC and plasma. Removal of CO_(2) from blood involves
