Answer:

b) a graphical representation of the relationship between hemoglobin's percent saturation and the partial pressure of oxygen

Explanation:

On vertical axis-hemoglobin's oxygen saturation

On horizontal axis-oxygen partial pressure

This curve determines hemoglobin affinity for oxygen. If hemoglobin has high oxygen saturation, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen is high.

As the blood moves through the systemic capillary, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen decreases, so that oxygen can be released into the cells.

Sickle cell disorder is a genetic disorder that is caused because of point mutation.

Due to point mutation protein lose their function which results in sickle cell disease.

The mutation in the Hemoglobin Subunit Beta gene in Sickle cell diseases affects the hemoglobin and the red blood cells molecules that transfer oxygen to the cells.

Sickle cell diseases can lead to stroke, organ damage,blindness, priapism,hypertension, acute chest problems.
