• B)The hypothetical hemoglobin has a greater oxygen affinity than normal hemoglobin.
• C)The oxygen binding curve for the hypothetical hemoglobin is hyperbolic,and the curve for normal hemoglobin is sigmoidal.
• D)The two hemoglobins would be able to deliver about the same amount of oxygen to the tissues.
• E)At pO₂ less than p₅₀,normal hemoglobin has a greater Y_O2 value.
