<prompt> Shifting of the oxygen dissociation curve to the right indicateThe affinity is less and more O2 is released to the tissueAffinity is more and less oxygen is released to tissuesAmount of oxygen transpoed is lessMore carbon dioxide is transpoed  <response>: A rise in temperature or a fall in pH shifts the curve to the right.When the curve is shifted in this direction, a higher PO2 is required for hemoglobin to bind a given amount of O2.By decreasing o2 affinity more O2 is released to the tissue.
