When parital pressure of CO(2)(p CO(2)) ...

When parital pressure of `CO_(2)(p CO_(2))` rises the oxygen dissociation curve of haemoglobin will

A

remain unchanged

B

become irregular

C

shift towards left

D

shift towards right

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Rise in `pCO_(2)` will leads to lowering of `pO_(2)` and thus % saturation of haemoglobin with oxgen will be lesser there by shifting the oxygen dissociation curve of haemoglobin to right .
