The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Bohr Effect**: The Bohr effect describes how the binding affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen is influenced by changes in carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration and pH levels in the blood. 2. **Key Relationships**: - The binding affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen decreases when the concentration of CO2 increases and when the pH of the blood decreases (becomes more acidic). - Conversely, an increase in pH (less acidic) and a decrease in CO2 concentration will increase hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A**: Reduced carbon level in lymph - Not directly related to the Bohr effect. - **Option B**: Reduced oxygen level in hemoglobin - This is related to the Bohr effect, as increased CO2 and decreased pH lead to hemoglobin releasing more oxygen. - **Option C**: Oxidized phosphorus level in blood - Not relevant to the Bohr effect. - **Option D**: Reduced carbon level in blood - While CO2 levels are involved, this option does not accurately describe the Bohr effect. 4. **Conclusion**: The Bohr effect is primarily related to the reduced oxygen level in hemoglobin due to increased CO2 concentration and decreased pH. Therefore, the correct answer is **Option B: Reduced oxygen level in hemoglobin**.
