Functions of red blood cells

During transportation of co2 what's the first thing that could happen

Bonds to amino acids chains

What is blue red blood cells called

Deoxyhemoglobin

What color do you have if red blood cells don't have o2

Blue

Hemoglobin is made when?

During erythropoisies

What is bright red blood cells called

Oxyhemoglobin

Third function of red blood cells

Transportation of CO2

Second function of red blood cells

Transportation of o2 cells that need it

Location of deoxyhemoglobin

Veins

Third way of co2 transportation (not chemical)

carries it as a dissolved gas in plasma like co2 in carbonated beverage

Second way of co2 transportation

Chemically combining with plasma

What happens when it is chemically combining with plasma

Co2+h20— enzyme h2co3 ——- h++hco3 Combines with carbonate acid / makes bicarbonate ion

Fourth function of red blood cells

Contains enzyme known as carbonic anhydrase

Due to drugs, hemoglobin can become oxidized which is called?

Cyanosis, turns skin blue

Chemically combining with plasma accounts for how much

67%

How much does carbaminohemoglobin account for?

11% of Co2 transportation

Location of oxyhemoglobin

Arteries

When red blood cells have o2 what color are they and why?

Bright red/ hemoglobin

When co2 binds when amino acids, what molecule is created

Carbaminohemoglobin

Hemoglobin also carries what

Carbon monoxide

First function of red blood cells

Production of protein pigment hemoglobin

carbonic anhydrase does what

Regulates combo of co2 and h2o, contrails the reaction of chemically combining with plasma which in turn controls ph
