What does the medical terminology combining form -globin mean?
The medical terminology combining form -globin refers to a protein component found in hemoglobin. It is specifically related to the protein portion of hemoglobin molecules.
How many molecules of oxygen bind to one molecule of hemoglobin?
Haemoglobin combines with four molecules of oxygen.
Is asthma related to high hemoglobin?
No, asthma is related to low hemoglobin.
What is the biological term of oxygen carrying pigment found in red blood corpuscles?
heomoglobin..... a comlex compound of proteins with iron......
Which level of protein structure is most related to specificity?
The tertiary structure of a protein is most related to specificity. This level of structure is where the unique three-dimensional arrangement of amino acids within a protein allows it to interact specifically with other molecules, such as enzymes with their substrates.
How are terms hemoglobin hemosiderin and hemolysis related?
they are related because of blood
Is hemoglobin allosteric?
Yes, Hemoglobin (Hb) is allosteric - it is also cooperative, which is a related but separate phenomenon. An allosteric protein has binding sites for effectors that can alter binding of another molecule or substrate. These effectors can be positive or negative. Hemoglobin has many negative effectors, which cause it to release the O2 that it is carrying. These include 2,3, Bisphosphoglycerate, Carbon Dioxide, and H+ (low pH).
What happens when hemoglobin levels increase in your body?
hemoglobin is a protein, helps store energy in the cells ================================== Haemoglobin, a protein, is rather known as the oxygen/carbon dioxide carrier. Tucked safely inside the red blood cells, they bind to oxygen molecules from the lungs (alveoli) (four oxygen molecules per haemoglobin), and carry them, in the blood stream, to the tissues. While at the tissues, they release the oxygen as needed. Haemoglobins also carry carbon dioxide from the tissues to the alveoli, where the carbon dioxide molecules are released. (gas exchange).

Is hemophilia a genetic disorder in which an abnormal form of hemoglobin is produced?
Hemophilia is not related to hemoglobin. It is a genetic disorder that affects the blood's ability to clot due to a deficiency in clotting factors. Hemoglobinopathies, on the other hand, are disorders related to the structure and production of hemoglobin.
What does the prefix hemo- mean in science?
The prefix hemo- in science refers to blood. It is commonly used in terms related to blood or blood components, such as hemoglobin (the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen) or hematology (the study of blood and blood-related disorders).
Are protease enzymes used in baby food?
* Trypsin (a serine protease) is used in baby food to pre-digest it. It can break down the protein molecules which helps the baby to digest it as its stomach is not strong enough to digest bigger protein molecules. See the Related Link.
How are peptide and protein related?
no
