Answer» Correct Answer - B Blood is the medium of transport for `O_(2)` and `CO_(2)`. About `97%` of `O_(2)` is transported by RBCs in the blood. The remaining `3%` of `O_(2)` is carried in a dissolved state through the plasma. Nearly `20-25%` of `CO_(2)` is transported by `RBCs` whereas `70%` of it is carried as bicarbonate. About `7%` of `CO_(2)` is carried in a dissolved state through plasma.
