Is Oxygen or Carbon Dioxide more soluble in Human blood? and Why?

When referring to solubility in blood we mean basically solubility in water which(at 1 atmosphere) for oxygen is 9mg/L (miiligrams per litre) and for carbon dioxide it is much higher at 1450g/L so carbon dioxide is about 160 times more soluble than oxygen.
