ScanSolve AI Answer
Aina mbili za kaboni zinazosafirishwa katika damu ni:
- Bicarbonate ions (HCO₃⁻): Hii ndiyo njia kuu ya usafirishaji wa CO₂ kutoka kwa tishu hadi mapafu. CO₂ huchanganyika na maji katika seli nyekundu za damu na kuwa asidi ya kaboniki (H₂CO₃), ambayo kisha hugawanyika kuwa ioni za bicarbonate na protoni.
- Carbaminohemoglobin: CO₂ inaweza pia kufungamana moja kwa moja na molekuli ya hemoglobin katika seli nyekundu za damu, na kuunda carbaminohemoglobin.
