• B. Hb + O₂ $\underset { \text { Association(in tissues) } } { \stackrel { \text { Dissociation(inlungs) } } { \rightleftarrows } } H b O _ { 2 }$
• C. HbO₂ $\underset { \text { Association(inlungs) } } { \stackrel { \text { Dissociation(in tissues) } } { \rightleftarrows } } \mathrm { HbO } _ { 2 }$
• D. HbO₂ $\underset { \text { Dissociation(intissues) } } { \stackrel { \text { Association } \text { (in lungs) } } { \rightleftarrows } } \mathrm { Hb } + \mathrm { O } _ { 2 }$

Answer 1
