摘要：
Evolution has adopted different strategies to solve the problem of transporting oxygen to respiring tissues, according to needs dictated by the environment. A thermodynamic analysis of haemoglobins of organisms living in extreme polar environments (mammals and fish) provides elegant examples of such adaptations.
