The upper curve represents the O^-dissocia- tion curve for the entire hemoglobin, obtained by adding the component curves together. by experiment. It must be concluded that under the right circum- _ ARHCO " stances it is possible to have what appear to be constant - „ u ratios even though more than one CVcombining component is con- tributing to the oxygenation of the hemoglobin and the release of base. Such a state of affairs does not necessarily constitute an exception to the theory we have presented, but merely a special case. Considering both the Haldane effect in whole blood at 10 mm.
