Question

Define adult haemoglobin and fetal haemoglobin.​

Answer 1

Some points on adult haemoglobin are as follows:-

• Rapid saturation of oxygen in the lungs.

• Rapid dissociation of oxygen takes place as oxygen concentration decreases.

• Oxygen that is released in the tissues where it is needed.

Some points on fetal haemoglobin are as follows:-

• This type of haemoglobin has more affinity than that of adult haemoglobin.

• In the left of adult haemoglobin it is to be curved.

• From fetal haemoglobin xygen moves comes in the adult haemoglobin.

Answer 2

Some points on adult haemoglobin are as follows:-

Rapid saturation of oxygen in the lungs.

Rapid dissociation of oxygen takes place as oxygen concentration decreases.

Oxygen that is released in the tissues where it is needed.

Some points on fetal haemoglobin are as follows:-

This type of haemoglobin has more affinity than that of adult haemoglobin.

In the left of adult haemoglobin it is to be curved.

From fetal haemoglobin xygen moves comes in the adult haemoglobin.
