What are spherocytes?

Spherocytes are abnormally round red blood cells that lack the central pallor seen in normal red blood cells.

Spherocytes are more fragile than normal red blood cells and may be removed from circulation more rapidly, leading to hemolytic anemia.


Where do the red cells drop the oxygen off?

Red blood cells drop off oxygen to tissues and cells in the body through the process of diffusion in capillaries. Oxygen molecules bind to hemoglobin in red blood cells in the lungs and are released when the red blood cells reach tissues with lower oxygen concentration.

What happens to blood cells when heated?

When blood cells are heated, their membranes may become damaged and the cells may rupture, releasing their contents. This can lead to denaturation of proteins and enzymes within the cells, affecting their function. Additionally, excessive heat can cause coagulation of proteins in the blood, leading to clumping and potentially clot formation.
