red′ blood′ cell` n. any of the cells of the blood that in mammals are enucleate disks concave on both sides, contain hemoglobin, and carry oxygen to the cells and tissues and carbon dioxide back to the respiratory organs. Also callederythrocyte,red′ blood′ cor`puscle.Abbr.:RBC ...
The blood cells that carry oxygen. Red cells containhemoglobinand it is the hemoglobin which permits them to transport oxygen (andcarbon dioxide). Hemoglobin, aside from being a transport molecule, is a pigment. It gives the cells their red color (and their name). The abbreviation forred bloo...
A technique is described for opening the membrane of a red blood cell by electroporation in a manner which permits free exchange of the native hemoglobin with exogenous hemoglobin in the surrounding medium. After resealing the RBC's demonstrate near normal size and hemoglobin content and retain an...
These cells are known for their distinctive red color that they give to the blood of the body as well as contain a specific protein called hemoglobin.Answer and Explanation: Red blood cells contain hemoglobin because through evolutionary time, the transportation of the oxygen molecule was made more...
题目The term "hemoglobin" refers to: A. A type of protein found in red blood cells. B. The oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. C. A hormone that regulates blood sugar. D. A component of the blood that helps in clotting. 相关知识点: ...
Red blood cells have a cell membrane and contain a special protein called hemoglobin that can bind to oxygen. Unlike most other cells, however, they do not contain a nucleus. Do red blood cells fight infection? No, red blood cells do not fight infection. The blood cells that fight infectio...
While the red blood cells of such animals as fish and birds have inactive nuclei, erythrocytes in humans and a number of other animals do not have nuclei or a nucleus. This allows the cells to contain more hemoglobin that is involved in the transportation of oxygen molecules....
Hemoglobin and red blood cells (erythrocytes) have been studied extensively from the perspective of life and biomedical sciences. However, no analysis of hemoglobin and red blood cells from the perspective of chemical thermodynamics has been reported in the literature. Such an analysis would provide ...
Each species has, for instance, lung and muscle adaptations but none more curious than the mutations that have occurred in their respective hemoglobins Fish without red blood cells For some red cell aficionados, it may come as a surprise to find a group of vertebrates that live without red ...
The blood is one of the most important features within the circulatory system because it helps transport necessary nutrients to cells and takes away wastes that could harm the body. Within the blood are red blood cells, which are made up of proteins called hemoglobin....
