Hemoglobin is made up of iron-bearing protein.It is found in red blood cells carrying oxygen from lungs to the tissues and carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs.
It makes the blood red.

∙ 6y agoHemoglobin is a protein and thus made up of amino acids. There are 4 polypeptide subunits each containing 1 heam molecule. These are fairly simple molecules but it is important to note that each contains an iron ion (this is what the oxygen attaches to).

Hemoglobin is a protein that carries oxygen around your body. What is hemoglobin made from?
Amino acids
What is made hemoglobin from?
amino acids
What are plasma and hemoglobin combined in blood?
Blood is made of plasma and hemoglobin. Plasma is what hemoglobin and other nutrients, blood cells, etc are suspended in.
What are white blood cells made of?
hemoglobin.
What is a white blood cell is made mostly of hemoglobin?
the question should be: Is a white blood cell made mostly of hemoglobin? if that was the question then yes, yes it is
How does your body make hemoglobin?
Hemoglobin is found in all mammals and in some vertebrates. The following is for mammals only. Our DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) carries the blueprints for Hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein that is carried by red blood cells or used by organs as an antioxidant and a regulator of iron metabolism. Hemoglobin is made before the cell is made; the alpha chain and the beta chain are made in precisely equal amounts, despite the differing number of genes. The protein chains join in developing red blood cells, and remain together for the life of the red cell.
Red blood cells is made out of?
hemoglobin,iron and protien
If you had high hematocrit would your hemoglobin be high or low?
RBCs are made up of hemoglobin, therefore if the hematocrit is high you should expect a high hemoglobin determination.
What substance is needed for hemoglobin synthesis?
Hemoglobin is the protein that, along with water, makes up a red blood cell. Hemoglobin is made from two substances, heme and globin. In order for hemoglobin synthesis to take place, two chains of globin must connect to one another. Without these chains, hemoglobin synthesis cannot happen.
Hemoglobin is made up of the protein heme and the red pigment globin?
false
What type of macro-molecule is hemoglobin?
A protein, which is made up of amino acids.
What do the red blood cells contain?
The red blood cells contain hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is made in such a way that it can carry oxygen which is transported to cells.
