How CO affects the human system?
Carbon Monoxide (CO) binds to Hemoglobin in the Red Blood Cells tighter than Oxygen. Thus, it is not properly released, and the body will essentially suffocate at high levels. Blood carrying carbon monoxide has a bright red color, and will tend to give a pink color to the flesh.
What the red blood cells contain which give them the red color?
Red blood cells contain platelets. Hope this helped! (:
What part of red blood cells give it the color red?
Hemoglobin
What part of a red cell gives it the red color?
That is called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin contains iron, and when iron oxidizes (rusts), it turns orange.
What does Hemoglobin give its blood to?
Hemoglobin is a protein that gives the red blood cells the color red so it doesn't have any blood
What carry oxygen and give blood its color?
Red Blood Cells and Blood/Air Veins.
Why does hemoglobin make blood red?
Blood contains a protein called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin, which contains iron, is found in red blood cells and is the ingredient that makes blood red. Hemoglobin transports oxygen from the lungs to wherever it's needed throughout your body. You've probably noticed that sometimes blood is bright red, while other times it is dark red. The difference in color comes from the changing amounts of oxygen in the blood. Arteries, a type of blood vessel, carry blood away from the lungs and heart to the rest of your body. That blood is rich in oxygen, which joins with hemoglobin to give the blood its bright red color. Tiny blood vessels called capillaries, which have narrow walls through which tiny substances can pass, distribute oxygen and nutrients to all of your body's cells.
Is the protein found in red blood cells that give blood its color.... learn in school you wont have this problem.?
HEMOGLOBIN (:
Describe how oxygen is transported in the blood?
Oxygen is transported in blood by binding to the Hemoglobins. Then Hemoglobin will carry O2 through out our body. When blood reach to the organ, or cells, DIFFUSION process will be activated, O2 from High concentration (blood stream) diffuses to the Low concentration (cells).
What is the hemoglobin pigment for?
hemoglobin is what give the red blood cells it,s clour
What are mature red blood cells filled with?
Mostly hemoglobin, which give blood its red color. The red blood cells also help carry oxygen throughout the body.
What does iron give to your body?
Iron in the hemoglobin molecule binds to oxygen and carbon dioxide, allowing the hemoglobin to transport oxygen from the lungs to the cells and carbon dioxide from the cells to the lungs so it can be exhaled.
