Answers 1a) On graph paper 1b) At molecular level‚ Haemoglobin is a protein made of four subunits bound together. Each of the subunits consists of a molecular group known as ‘heme’ and a polypeptide attached to the ‘heme’. The ‘heme’ group contains one atom of iron (Fe²+) and it is this iron that the oxygen molecule combines itself to. As there are four of the iron molecules in the haemoglobin this shows that a maximum of four oxygen molecules can be carried by the haemoglobin at anytime. For simplicity

The respiratory system provides life giving oxygen to cells through inspiration of air; at the same time‚ it removes carbon dioxide waste from cells through expiration‚ which can be lethal if not ventilated properly. This process is called pulmonary ventilation and is facilitated by three major components of the respiratory system: airways‚ lungs‚ and muscles; all of which play a vital role in the respiratory cycle and homeostasis. The respiratory cycle begins in the airways and during inhalation
