Solution

The correct option is C
Haldane effect

Binding of oxygen with haemoglobin tends to displace carbon dioxide from the blood. This phenomenon is called Haldane effect. It occurs because the combination of oxygen with haemoglobin causes it to become a stronger acid which, in turn, displaces carbon dioxide from the blood.
