A person with low hemoglobin may feel dizzy because his blood doesn't have enough oxygen-carrying capacity. The brain requires large amounts of oxygen, and may be the first organ to notice a deficiency.

What are the characteristics of mature red blood cells?
LOTS of haemoglobin (Hb) molecules to carry oxygen. (ie. ~100 million Hb/red blood cell). Immature red blood cells have few Hb in each blood cell.
What protein combines with oxygen in the blood for transport?
The protein haemoglobin found in red blood cells binds reversibly with oxygen. It is the oxygen transporter in blood, and when combined with oxygen the product is oxyhaemoglobin. One haemoglobin molecule binds with four oxygen molecules in accordance with the chemical equation: Hb + 4O2 -> Hb(O2)4 Note: Hb is haemoglobin; Hb(O2)4 is oxyhaemoglobin
What preservative does the Lord compare his disciples?
The Lord compares his disciples to salt in the Bible. Salt preserves and adds flavor to food, just as disciples are called to preserve and bring goodness to the world through their actions and teachings.
What is hematocrit and how do you calculate it?
Given the total Hb concentration, and the mean corpuscular Hb concentration, Hct can be estimated using the formula Hb/MCHC x 100
What is the average oxygen carrying capacity for normal hemoglobin?
This is the theoretical maximum volume of oxygen capable of binding to one gm of hemoglobin (Hb) multiplied by the % saturation of the hemoglobin. Practically, if one knows the amount of Hb per volume of blood then one can determine the volume of O2 carried by blood solely by Hb. Let us assume the following values:[Hb] = 15gm/100mLO2 bound per gm of Hb = 1.39 mLand O2 saturation = 97.5%...ThenO2 carrying capacity of 100 mL blood due to Hb = 15 x 1.39 x 0.975= 20.33 mL O2/100mL
Is 10.8 normal blood count?
if your meaning is for hb then it is slightly low in children, very low in neonates, and low in male and female. hb depends on age and sex.
Hb estimation by drabkin's method?

What does the medical abbreviation HB mean?
Hb means hemoglobin in the medical context.High BloodpressureMost often Hb stand for hemoglobin, which is a measure of the iron containing part of the red blood cell that carries oxygen.In cardiology it can also stand for heart block.
What is the medical abbreviation for HB or hb?
HB
What is Hb H?
A : Hb H is Hemoglobin H, which is a type of hemoglobin which is normally found in adult human beings. Hemoglobin is the oxygen-carrying chemical compound in our red blood cell.
