It is an iron-based protein called hemoglobin.
Hemoglobin (a complex iron-based protein) is responsible for the transport of oxygen in the blood.
Red blood cells carry oxygen around the body.
Hemoglobin
Hayem's solution contain Mercuric chloride, sodium sulphate, sodium chloride and distilled water. It dissolves WBCs, dilutes RBCs and provides an isotonic environment for RBCs.
Hemolysis is the degradation of RBCs. Agglutination is the reaction that occurs when antibodies bind to the antigen. Agglutination looks cloudy while hemolysis will be clear.
My Anatomy and Physiology book says: "Blood is the only fluid tissue in the body. It appears to be a thick, homogeneous liquid, but the microscope reveals that blood has both cellular and liquid components."
Blood and Drabkins Reagent (RBCs lysed and Hgb released) Hgb oxidized to methoglobin by K ferricyanide Resulting pigment converted to stable cyanmethoglobin by Kcyanide Absorption of pigment measured photometrically at 540nm Concentration of Hgb is directly proportional to optical density of solution
MCHC it's how much of the volume in one erythrocyte is occupied by meoglobin. MCHC=(Hb%/pcv%) *100 normal value = 30%-38% while MCV it's the amount of hemoglobin in one erythrocyte. mcv = (pcv/RBCs)*10 normal value 27-32pg (picogram)
to transport oxygen all around the body.
Red blood cells are the blood component most frequently used for transfusion. RBCs are the only cells in the body that transport oxygen. A transfusion of RBCs increases the amount of oxygen that can be carried to the tissues of the body.
the primary function of red blood cells is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the cells of the body. RBCs contain a protein called hemoglobin that actually carries the oxygen.
Red blood cells transport oxygen to the tissues in the body, and bring waste carbon dioxide back to the lungs to be exhaled. A Red Blood Cell Count is to check the number of red blood cells. Too high or too low can indicate a health problem.
the answer to apex is passive.
The RBCs shed the oxygen molecules in the capillaries
Hemoglobin present inside the RBCs provides oxygen to the tissues when the RBCs reach them via the capillaries
Red Blood Cells (RBCs) have hemoglobin. Hemoglobin picks up oxygen, like giving a piggy-back ride. The RBCs in the blood circulate throughout the body.
Biconcave disk containg haemoglobin for the transport of oxygen. These cells have no nucleus or mitochondrion so as to ensure they do not use up the oxygen they carry instad they generate all their ATP through gycolysis. RBCs are mostly produced in the bone marrow.
Red blood cells are the most abundant cells in human blood. Their primary function is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the cells of the body. In men, there are an average of 5 million RBCs per cubic millimeter and in women there are an average of 4 million RBCs per cubic millimeter.
Sickle cell anemia produces sickle-shaped RBCs that reduce the ability to carry as well as exchange oxygen with tissues.
It also allows them to be somewhat flexible which permits them to squeeze through vessels that have slightly smaller diameters than the RBCs themselves.
