The correct option is (C) Carbon dioxide reacts with an amino group to stabilize the deoxyhemoglobin state.

In addition to transporting oxygen from the lungs to the tissues, hemoglobin is also involved in transporting carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs where, Carbon dioxide reacts with an amino group to stabilize the deoxyhemoglobin state.

<h3>How does hemoglobin contribute to the movement of carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs?</h3>
  • The transport of carbon dioxide in the blood is influenced by a number of factors. First, blood contains more carbon dioxide soluble molecules than oxygen. The plasma contains 5–7% of the total dissolved carbon dioxide.
  • Second, carbon dioxide can enter red blood cells and bind to hemoglobin or it can bind to plasma proteins. In this form, 10% of the carbon dioxide gets transported.
  • A substance known as carbaminohemoglobin is created when carbon dioxide binds to hemoglobin. Hemoglobin and carbon dioxide can bind to one other again.
  • As a result, when it gets to the lungs, the carbon dioxide can separate from the hemoglobin without restriction and leave the body.
  • Third, the bicarbonate buffer system is responsible for transporting 85% of the carbon dioxide molecules.

The correct answer is rapids and waterfalls.  

Rapids refers to the segments of streams with extensively vigorous currents, various obstacles, and steps in their streambeds. A waterfall refers to a vertical drop in a stream bed. Both are the locations of vigorous erosion.  

The rapids are generally produced where the resilient bedrock limits a stream to a narrow channel and forces an enhancement in the velocity of water.  

On the other hand, waterfalls are produced where the fast-flowing water negotiates a geologic contact amid the more resilient and less resistant layers of rock, or through a fault, which has analogized distinct kinds of rocks. Or it can be said that waterfalls usually produce at the end of a series of rapids.
