The supply of oxygen to tissues by blood, can be explained by
  1. Le-Chatelier's principle
  2. Boyle's law
  3. Charls' law
  4. Dalton's law

Solution

Le-Chatelier's principle drives the following reaction forward as blood passes through the alveoli \(\mathrm{H}^{+}+\mathrm{HCO}_3 \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{CO}_3 \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\) The carbon dioxide produced here continually diffuses into the alveoli and is exhaled, ensuring favorable kinetics for the reaction to proceed. Thus, correct answer is option (a).
