Describe how cooperativity of oxygen binding in hemoglobin is advantageous for the transport of oxygen from the lungs to the tis

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.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

D) 75 J

Energy is neither related nor destroyed- it's simply converted to different forms. Forces are vectors with both mass and acceleration; they are interactions that have the ability to change an object's motion. As objects move, their potential energy (apprx 100 J) is converted to kinetic energy. However, friction a resistive force, which is formed from the conversion of an object's kinetic energy into heat energy, as two surfaces move along each other.

With the reduction of friction, the energy output should increase, as less energy is lost as heat. Thus, the output should be 75 J.
