what is the most important factor responsible for haemoglobin to act as oxygen carrier
Iron associated with the heme binds oxygen. It is the iron in hemoglobin that gives blood its red color. It is easier to bind a second and third oxygen molecule to Hb than the first molecule. This is because the hemoglobin molecule changes its shape, or conformation, as oxygen binds.
