    A)  They carry about 20-25 per cent of \[C{{O}_{2}}\]

    B)  They transport 99.5 per cent of \[{{O}_{2}}\]

    C)  They transport about 80 per cent oxygen only and the rest 20 per cent of its transported in dissolved state in blood plasma

    D)  They do not carry \[C{{O}_{2}}\]at all

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Blood is the medium of transport for\[{{O}_{2}}\] and \[C{{O}_{2}}.\]About 97 percent of\[{{O}_{2}}\]is transported by RBCs in the blood. The remaining 3 percent of \[{{O}_{2}}\]is carried in a dissolved state through the plasma. Nearly 20-25 percent of it is carried as bicarbonate. About 7 percent of\[C{{O}_{2}}\] is carried in a dissolved state through plasma.
