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.

<h2>Next generation DNA sequencing</h2>

Explanation:

CDC must use Next generation DNA sequencing  method to determine the DNA sequence of the dengue virus.

The mostly used sequencing methods now a days are called Next-generation sequencing methods. They are faster, cheaper , accurate and need a small amount of sample.

Next generation sequencing platforms perform massively parallel sequencing, during which millions of fragments of DNA from a single sample are sequenced in unison. Massively parallel sequencing technologies facilitates high -throughput sequencing, which allows an entire genome to be sequenced in one day.

in Medical research where speed is necessary and sample size is small, these sequencing technology will be best to be used.
