    D) Four

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Haemoglobin is one of a group of globular proteins occurring widely in animals as oxygen carriers in blood. Vertebrate haemoglobin comprises two pairs of polypeptide chains, known as u-chains and p-chains (forming the globin protein) with each chain folded to provide a binding site for a haem group. Each of the four haem groups binds one oxygen molecule to form oxyhaemoglobin.
