What term means to destroy worn-out red blood cells and to liberate hemoglobin?
Haemolysis (or hemolysis) is the rupturing of red blood cells which releases haemoglobin (hemoglobin).This term refers to the rupturing of any red blood cell, not specifically worn-out ones (in many disease-states healthy red blood cells undergo haemolysis).Eryptosis is the term used for the programmed death of red blood cells. This is the normal process for worn-out red blood cells. It involves phagocytosis by macrophages in the spleen, liver and/or bone marrow.
What happens to the fragments of old red blood cells after they rupture?
After old red blood cells rupture, the fragments are broken down by the body's immune system and recycled for the production of new red blood cells.
What is the large cell that engulfs foreign material and worn out red cells called?
The large cell that engulfs foreign material and worn out red cells is called a macrophage. Macrophages are a type of white blood cell that play a key role in the immune system by engulfing and digesting pathogens, cell debris, and other harmful substances.
What destroys worn out red blood cells and stores red blood cells?
IF, and I mean IF I'm not mistaken, I think that that would have to be your liver. I'm not one hundered percent sure, but 10th grade Biology gets you somewhere.
What blood cells contain haemoglobin?
Red blood cells because that is what carries oxygen throughout the body
What happens to worn-out red blood cells in the liver?
The liver processes part of the worn-out red blood cells in the liver for reuse. Tubes from the liver lead to the top of the small intestine. The rest of the parts of the worn out red blood cells are sent there to be re-digested and the parts reused.
What destroys worn out of the red blood cell and stores red blood cells?
spleen?
Is the white blood cell disposin of a worn out red blood cell by endocytosis or phagocytosis?
White blood cells dispose of worn-out red blood cells through phagocytosis. They engulf and digest the old red blood cells to remove them from circulation efficiently.
What happens to red blood cells at high elevations?
Polycythemia or an increase in red blood cells

What happens when the red blood cells turn dark red?
It loses oxygen!
What happens to the fragments of old red blood cells after they rupture?
After old red blood cells rupture, the fragments are broken down by the body's immune system and recycled for the production of new red blood cells.
What is the role of the spleen in excretion?
it is helps to filter and clean the blood and removes worn-out red blood cells for excretion.
Why some cells change during life span?
this mostly happens with multi-cellular organisms and red blood cells. Red blood cells lose their nucleus.
What process happens in the bone marrow?
Erythropoiesis (making red blood cells) and the synthesis of other blood cells.
What is the large cell that engulfs foreign material and worn out red cells called?
