    7. Which is true of Hb
    a. Abnormalities can lead to haemolysis in conditions such as spherocytosis
    and sickle cell anaemia because of increased RBC fragility
    b. HbF has a lower affinity for 2,3 DPG and thus oxygen compared to HbA
    c. Is the major oxygen and CO2 carrier
    d. Colours the blood: oxygenated (red) methaemoglobin (blue)
    e. In normal venous blood carries 6 atoms of oxygen per molecule and so is
    saturated 75% with oxygen

    with oxygen
