What is What will be the oxygen carrying capacity of an 18-year-old patient with a hemoglobin of 14 g/dL? and explain in detail?
Answer- C. 18Each gram of hemoglobin can bind with a maximum of 1.34 milliliters of oxygen (1.39 milliliters when the hemoglobin is chemically pure, but impurities such as methemoglobin reduce this).Here, Hb = 14.Hence, oxygen carrying capacity: l.34 x 14 = 18 mLO2/dL
