Definition: In this task, you are given two statements. The task is to output whether a given textual premise, i.e. Statement 2, entails or implies a given scientific fact, i.e. Statement 1. The output should be 'entails' if Statement 2 supports Statement 1 and should be 'neutral' otherwise.
Input: Sentence 1: Hemoglobin is a carrier molecule that becomes less effective at binding oxygen as temperature increases. Sentence 2: As explained above, 2,3 diphosphoglycerate molecules bind to the hemoglobin molecule in the taut configuration and stabilize that quaternary confirmation of the molecule, thereby favoring the low oxygen affinity state.
