oxygen saturation curve. graphical representation describing the relationship (usually curvilinear) between fraction of oxygen-binding sites (of a protein) that have oxygen bound to them and the partial pressure (concentration) of free oxygen.
Other dialects spoken in the Philippines include Cebuano, Ilokano, Waray-Waray, Hiligaynon, Pangasinan, Bikol, Maranao, Maguindanao, Tausug, and Kapampangan, but the official language, Filipino, is based on Tagalog.
Also, even though Tagalog has approx. 21 million native speakers in the country, almost the entire country can understand and speak the language, even if it is formally called âFilipinoâ. The first paragraph in your Introduction portion mentions it as a lingua franca for overseas Filipinos.
