  • You do not explain why the Bohr phenomena occurs, you offer an equilibrium mechanism. The Bohr shift occurs because CO2 associates with the nitrogenous ends of amino acids present in the hemoglobin structure. These interactions form ionic carbamases, which enhance stability of the deoxymyoglobin structure (T-state of this allosteric protein). This results in decreased oxygen affinity in the tissues. This is helpful when cells are undergoing combustion processes such as when they need energy.

  • @mattmatt6906 This video is for the WJEC A level specification, as mentioned in the description. It might not explain everything to a full extent, but it says the basic information and matches the WJEC specification.
