What does Fe2S3 break down into?
Iron(III) sulfide (Fe2S3) breaks down into iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) and sulfur dioxide (SO2).
When hemoglobin is recycled what happens to the heme group?
Old or damaged RBCs are removed from the circulation by macrophages in the spleen and liver, and the hemoglobin they contain is broken down into heme and globin. The globin protein may be recycled, or broken down further to its constituent amino acids, which may be recycled or metabolized. The heme contains precious iron that is conserved and reused in the synthesis of new hemoglobin molecules. During its metabolism, heme is converted to bilirubin, a yellow pigment that can discolor the skin and sclera of the eye if it accumulates in the blood, a condition known as jaundice. Instead, the plasma protein albumin binds to bilirubin and carries it to the liver, where it is secreted in bile and also contributes to the color of feces.
What is an iron containing protein called?
An iron-containing protein is called a heme protein, which includes hemoglobin and myoglobin. These proteins are crucial for transporting and storing oxygen in the body.
Beef is the 1 source of what nutrients?
protein, iron and nutrients for a healthy balanced diet
What protein containing iron in red blood cells that combines with and transports O2?
Hemoglobin is the iron containing protein in our red blood cells that combines with and carries oxygen.
What do you get when an enzyme breaks down a protein molecule?
Proteins are composed principally of amino acids. Some proteins also contain metals like iron and copper.
After hemoglobin is broken down into heme and globin what ultimately happens to the heme?
Heme is decomposed into iron and biliverdin
What are the products of hemoglobin breakdown?
Hemoglobin molecules liberated from red blood cells are broken down into subunits of heme, an iron containing portion, and globin, a protein. The heme further decomposes into iron and a greenish pigment called biliverdin. Biliverdin eventually is converted to an orange pigment called bilirubin.
What does Fe2S3 break down into?
Iron(III) sulfide (Fe2S3) breaks down into iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) and sulfur dioxide (SO2).
Which organ breaks down red blood cell?
The spleen breaks down old red blood cells. The contained hemoglobin is released, which is further broken to globin, a protein and heme, a porphyrin.The heme is converted to bilirubin, which moves from the spleen to the liver attached to albumin. (Both feces and urine get their color from the products of the breakdown of the heme.) The iron recycled from the breakdown of the heme group is stored in the liver.
Which organof the human body breaks down the rbcs and stores iron from them?
liver

Which organ of the human body breaks down the old RBCs and stires iron from them?
Spleen
What happens when an iron tack is placed in CuCl2?
it goes up into space and breaks down to a gas
Which organ of the human body breaks down old rbc and store iron from them?
Most of the iron in the body is hoarded and recycled by the reticuloendothelial system, which breaks down aged red blood cells. So i think its the spleen as spleen is a part of recticuloendothelial system.
It is protein in the blood that has iron?
Hemoglobin is a blood protein containing iron.
Is the protein in the blood that has iron?
Hemoglobin is a blood protein containing iron.
