17. What are the favourable conditions for binding of oxygen to haemoglobin?Give two points.

1.- Even at lowpartialpressures, carbon monoxide will prevent hemoglobin from delivering oxygen to the body. 2.- Once carbon monoxide binds to one site of hemoglobin, hemoglobin turns into the R-state whichincreasesoxygen affinity and prevents oxygen dissociation in tissues.
