A couple in Colorado was keeping warm in the winter with their wood stove. They left the stove unattended throughout the night. In the morning, the couple arose and complained to each other about dizziness, nausea, fatigue, and headache. At that time, they noticed small crack in the venting system of their stove and called 911 to report possible CO poisoning. They removed themselves from the house, and after several hours of breathing normal air, their symptoms were gone. How did the CO affect O2 transport in their blood?
