The Oval Office exerts tremendous gravitational pull on its occupants. President Obama, in a fingers-crossed wish, has already predicted that the tug of the office eventually will move Trump into a more conventional orbit. Not so far.
Red blood cells are also known as erythrocytes. The red blood cells transport oxygen through the circulatory system to the cells and tissues of the body. In the cells, oxygen and glucose support glycolysis, the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). The red blood cells are filled with hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying part of the red blood cell. Hemoglobin can also be spelled âhaemoglobin.â Each red blood cell contains 250 to 300 million molecules of hemoglobin. A molecule of hemoglobin is made up of one globin protein, with four iron-containing heme groups.
hemoglobin (hÄËmÉglÅËbÄ­n) [ key ], respiratory protein found in the red blood cells (erythrocytes) of all vertebrates and some invertebrates. A hemoglobin molecule is composed of a protein group, known as globin, and four heme groups, each associated with an iron atom.In the lungs, each iron atom combines reversibly with a molecule of oxygen. Each hemoglobin molecule also has attached a single cysteine amino acid, which attracts nitric oxide from the lungs. hemoglobin molecule is composed of a protein group, known as globin, and four heme groups, each associated with an iron atom.
