Identify the incorrect statement regarding carbonic anhydrase:
| 1. | RBCs contain a very high concentration of the enzyme. |
| 2. | It is not present at all in the plasma. |
| 3. | It assists rapid inter-conversion of carbon dioxide and water into carbonic acid, protons and bicarbonate ions. |

Consider the two statements regarding transport of carbon dioxide as bicarbonate:
1. Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct
2. Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect
3. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct
4. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect
| Statement I: | At the alveolar site where partial pressure of CO2 is high due to catabolism, CO2 diffuses into blood (RBCs and plasma) and forms HCO3– and H+. |
| Statement II: | At the tissue site where pCO2 is low, the reaction proceeds in the opposite direction leading to the formation of CO2 and H2O. |
1. Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct
2. Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect
3. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct
4. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect
