In humans, the embryonic and fetal forms of hemoglobin have a higher affinity for oxygen than that of adults. Why is this the case?

#Unit 11. Evolution and Behavior
  1. Nonidentical genes produce different versions of globins during development.

  2. Pseudogenes interfere with gene expression in adults.

  3. The attachment of methyl groups to cytosine following birth changes the type of hemoglobin produced.

  4. Histone proteins change shape during embryonic development.
