Q1.

Carbonic anhydrase catalyzes the following reaction in red blood cells.
$\text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightleftharpoons \text{H}_2\text{CO}_3 \rightleftharpoons \text{HCO}_3^- + \text{H}^+$
This reaction acts as a buffering system in blood. Consequence of failure of the enzyme to catalyze the reverse reaction is:

(A)

The $p\text{CO}_2$ increases and the affinity of haemoglobin for $\text{CO}_2$ increases.

(B)

Blood becomes acidic and the formation of carbamino-haemoglobin decreases.

(C)

The $p\text{O}_2$ of the blood decreases and the affinity of haemoglobin for $\text{O}_2$ increases.

(D)

Blood becomes acidic and the affinity of haemoglobin for $\text{O}_2$ decreases.
