Which of the following statement correctly defines "Bohr effects"

Options

A. Rise in `PCO_(2)` with a decrease in `CO_(2)` concentration
B. Rise in `PCO_(2)` with a increase in `CO_(2)` concentration
C. Rise in `PCO_(2)` with a increase in `CO_(2)` and decrease in `PO_(2)`
D. Rise in `PCO_(2)` with a decrease in pH (concentration at which `50%` hemoglobin of blood is saturated with oxygen)

Answer

D

Explanation

The Bohr effect states that hemoglobin oxygen binding affinity is inversely proportional to both acidity and concentration of carbon dioxide.
