in the blood
if you have low levels of hemoglobin, you can expect to live for 12 hours longer.
Hemoglobin is not a living thing. Hemoglobin is simply a molecule capable of temporarily binding with oxygen and carrying that oxygen to where it is needed, then giving it up and returning to be reoxygenated. Hemoglobin is present in red blood cells, but does not metabolize, neither does it generate nor utilize energy itself, generally considered parameters that define 'living'.

No, hemoglobin is a protein.
what is hemoglobin?
No. Hemoglobin is required to transport O2, a constant requirement for human life.
Haemoglobin transports oxygen in the blood of vertebrates. So, no, we would not survive without it!
Hemoglobin itself does not have a lifespan, as it is a protein within red blood cells (RBCs). The average lifespan of a red blood cell, which contains hemoglobin, is about 120 days. After this period, red blood cells are typically removed from circulation by the spleen and liver, and their hemoglobin is broken down and recycled by the body.
Hypochromia (as in hypochromic anemia) is the medical term meaning deficiency in hemoglobin.
No, hemoglobin is a protein.
Yes crocodiles do have a Hemoglobin.
Well, the high concentration of hemoglobin is what gives our blood its red color. More specifically, the porphyrin functional group in the hemoglobin structure is what gives hemoglobin (and oxy-hemoglobin) its red hue.DO NOT LET ANYONE TELL YOU THAT HEMOGLOBIN IS RED BECAUSE OF THE IRON IN THE CENTER OF ITS STRUCTURE. THEY WOULD BE LYING TO YOU.
