Hello!

Hemoglobin is the protein which carries oxygen by binding to it. Hemoglobin is found in red blood cells. This protein is extremely important as it allows respiration to be carried out, and transports oxygen to the rest of our bodies.

Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli (in our lungs) through capillaries into the blood. From there, the hemoglobin in the blood will take the oxygen, and bring it to the other parts of the body which need it. This also allows continued diffusion into the capillaries.

Hope this helps!

Mutations occur in different ways. Identify the method in which part of the chromosome reserves itself to form a new region?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Chromosomal inversion

Explanation:

Inversion is a type of mutation which occurs in the chromosome structure in which the chromosome region breaks at two points and the region between the break and rotates to 180°. The rotated region after rotation rejoins with the end of the chromosomes.

Sometimes these break occurs in the region of the gene and the inversion of the sequence of the gene proves a lethal mutation like in the case of haemophilia in humans.

Thus, Chromosomal inversion is the correct answer.
