What part of the blood cell carries oxygen?
hemoglobin
Very low hemoglobin will result to what?
It may result to cyanosis or lack of oxygenated blood in the system.
How do you calculate mch and MCHC?
Mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) is calculated by dividing the total amount of hemoglobin by the total number of red blood cells, and then multiplying by 10 to get the result in picograms. Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) is calculated by dividing the total amount of hemoglobin by the total volume of red blood cells, and then multiplying by 100 to get the result as a percentage.
Is Sickle cell disease is a result of red blood cell denaturation?
No, sickle cell disease is not primarily a result of red blood cell denaturation. Instead, it is caused by a genetic mutation in the hemoglobin gene, leading to the production of abnormal hemoglobin known as hemoglobin S. This abnormal hemoglobin causes red blood cells to assume a rigid, sickle shape, particularly under low oxygen conditions, which can obstruct blood flow and lead to various complications.
What is abnormal hemoglobin?
Abnormal hemoglobin is a lab result . First it is important to know what hemoglobin is, it is the stuff that fills your red blood cells. You will have to check with your doctor about the meanings of high hemoglobin or look it up online. But low hemoglobin generally signals a problem because there is not enough to fill the red blood cells. An abnormal hemoglobing test really doesnt tell me anything, you should also look at your bilirubin which tells how fast blood cells are being destroyed and the actual red blood celll count which may be labeled RBC or TBC for total blood cell count.
Why does the blood become more darker as it is being pumped round the body?
As blood travels through the body, it delivers oxygen to tissues and organs. Oxygenated blood is bright red, but as oxygen is utilized, the blood becomes deoxygenated and appears darker. This change in color is a result of the oxygen-rich hemoglobin turning into deoxygenated hemoglobin.
Why do you red blood cells contain hemoglobin?
No, white blood cells do not contain hemoglobin; red blood cells contain hemoglobin (and it is the hemoglobin that gives them their red color).
What is the oxygen in the blood transported by?
Oxygen in the blood is transported by hemoglobin.
Where can you find Hemoglobin and what does it do?
Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carry oxygen, the test shows how much hemoglobin you have in your blood. Hemoglobin is found by blood being drawn by the vein usually from the inside of the elbow, the health care provider wraps an elastic band around the arm to apply pressure and make the vein swell with blood. Then the health care provider inserts a needle in the vein.
What carries hemoglobin in animal's blood cells?
The cells that carry hemoglobin are red blood cells. Their scientific name is erythrocytes.
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.
How can you tell if an organism has hemoglobin?
hemoglobin is responsible for making blood red. if the organism has red blood, it contains hemoglobin
