1. Dissociation curve is connected with
a) Myoglobin
b) CO
c) \[O_{2}\]
d) Oxyhaemoglobin
Explanation: Dissociation curve is connected with Oxyhaemoglobin.
2. A large proportion of oxygen is left unused in the human blood even after uptake by the body
tissue. This oxygen
a) Is enough to keep oxyhaemoglobin saturation at 96%
b) Helps in releasing more oxygen to epithelial tissues.
c) Acts as reserve during muscular exercise.
d) Raise \[pCO_{2}\] of blood to 75 mm Hg.
Explanation: Acts as reserve during muscular exercise

Explanation: 5 ml
6. How much oxygen is delivered to tissue by 100 ml of oxygenated blood under normal
physiological condition?
a) 10 ml
b) 20 ml
