This is the only way equilibrium can be established because the red blood cell membrane is relatively impermeable to positive ions. This exchange is called the 'chloride shift' and serves the useful purpose of allowing a great deal of bicarbonate to be carried in the plasma. In the lungs the haemoglobin takes up oxygen and the pro- portion of oxyhaemoglobin within the corpuscle is Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Hughes, G.
