Which of the following correctly describes mechanisms of CO transport?

Question

• 20% of CO2 is dissolved directly into the plasma.
• Carbonic anhydrase converts 02 to CO2.
Carbonic anhydrase is responsible for bonding CO2 to hemoglobin.
• The chloride shift mechanism enhances CO2 transport.
• 7-8% of CO2 is carried in the form of carbaminohemoglobin.

Answer 1

• The chloride shift mechanism enhances CO2 transport.
• 7-8% of CO2 is carried in the form of carbaminohemoglobin.
