Why do red blood cells need to use pentose phosphate pathways? Do endothelial cells use oxygen? Why don't red blood cells have a nucleus? Why is the pentose phosphate pathway active in dividing cells? Why do viruses need cells? How does hemoglobin transport oxygen?
a. In normal blood, is there free oxygen in plasma? b. What's the percentage of oxygen binding to hemoglobin? c. Explain why does such amount of oxygen bind to hemoglobin. Hemoglobin that is 80% saturated contains approximately {Blank} oxygen molecules. A. 2 B...
blood sugar on the body’s proteins—in this case hemoglobin, the carrier of oxygen in our bloodstreams: it literally “cooks” in a low-temperature version of caramelization—the kitchen chemistry process by which proteins in foods brown with exposure to sugary marinades when put to the flame...

Testosterone is also an integral component in the metabolism of iron and helps form hemoglobin. It is an iron-rich protein in charge of bringing oxygen from the lungs to other organs. TRT plays a significant role in raising hemoglobin levels and hematocrit or the ratio of red blood cells to...
Increased aerobic threshold and oxygen pickup in the lungs; easier to do more exercise Increased fat burning enzymes; fat deposits are encouraged to release fatty acids Increased glycogen storage; reduced conversion of sugar to fat; reduced incidence of hypoglycemia Increased hemoglobin levels; decreased...
Your liver makes a protein called transferrin that attaches to, or binds to,iron in your blood. Once iron is bound to transferrin, it goes to yourbone marrowto make red blood cells and hemoglobin, a protein that helps carry oxygen.

Today, dead means the heart has been stopped for 4-6 minutes, because that’s how long the brain can go without oxygen before brain death occurs. But Alcor, in its site’sScience FAQ, explains that “the brain ‘dies’ after several minutes without oxygen not because it is immediately de...
