Question 3 • 26-27 Ignite Health Science Concepts - EL3602

Carbon dioxide moves around the body by binding with hemoglobin and by:

Answer
A
binding with fats and sugars.
B
dissolving into plasma.
C
being inhaled into the lungs.

Explanation

Carbon dioxide is carried in the blood in more than one form: some binds to hemoglobin, and some dissolves directly in the plasma. Therefore, “dissolving into plasma” is the correct choice; inhalation happens after the blood reaches the lungs, not as a way CO₂ moves through the body.
