उत्तर
The haemoglobin of a human foetus has a higher affinity for oxygen than that of an adult.
Explanation:
The oxygen required for aerobic respiration diffuses from a high to low concentration region in the mother's blood to the foetal's blood. Because the foetal haemoglobin has a stronger affinity for oxygen than adult haemoglobin, the efficiency of exchange is improved.
