The affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen is less than its structural analog myoglobin. However, this does not affect hemoglobin's usefulness for the body; on the contrary, it allows hemoglobin to be a  more efficient carrier than myoglobin. This is because hemoglobin can release oxygen more easily than can myoglobin. It is both important for oxygen to be carried to different areas and also to be released when needed. The higher affinity of a given protein for oxygen, the harder it will be for that protein to release oxygen when needed. Therefore, hemoglobin's lower affinity for oxygen serves it well because it allows hemoglobin to release oxygen more easily in the body.

Signals from _______ and the body's _______ are received by the brain and the spinal cord.
snow_lady [41]

Signals from neurons and the body's nervous system are received by the brain and the spinal cord.

OR

Signals from organs and the body's senses are received by the brain and the spinal cord. (I looked it up on quizlet to make sure I was right, and someone had organs and senses for the blanks, so I put it here just in case)

I'm not sure which answers your teacher(s) accept, but hopefully this helps.
