what is meant oxyhaemoglobin?
Haemoglobin is the coloring pigment of blood. Its main function is to carry oxygen. In the lungs, Oxygen binds with the haemoglobin to form oxyhaemoglobin. Each haemoglobin can bind four molecules of oxygen. Formation of oxyhaemoglobin is a reversible reaction. So when blood reaches the target cells, oxyhaemoglobin dissociates into oxygen and haemoglobin.
