hemoglobin
hemoglobin. haemoglobin.

hemoglobin
The normal coloring matter of the red blood corpuscles of vertebrate animals.

hemoglobin
In arterial blood, it is always combined with oxygen, and is then called oxyhemoglobin.

hemoglobin
See Blood crystal, under Blood. a hemoprotein composed of globin and heme that gives red blood cells their characteristic color; function primarily to transport oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues; 'fish have simpler hemoglobin than mammals'.

hemoglobin
the iron-protein component in the red blood cells that carries oxygen to body tissues. substance in the red blood cells that supplies oxygen to the cells of the body. iron-containing, oxygen-carrying pigment in red blood cells.

hemoglobin
The iron-containing pigment of the red blood cells which carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues.

hemoglobin
A substance contained within red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs throughout the body Hemoglobin is responsible for the color of red blood cells.

hemoglobin
Hemoglobin is a substance contained within the red blood cells and is responsible for their color It has the unique property of combining reversibly with oxygen and is the medium by which oxygen is transported within the body It takes up oxygen as blood passes through the lungs and releases it as blood passes through the tissues.

hemoglobin
The oxygen-carrying part of the red blood cell.

hemoglobin
The molecule in the red blood cell that carries oxygen Hemoglobin combines with oxygen in the lungs and releases it in the tissues It is what makes blood red.

hemoglobin
A protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs.

hemoglobin
The part of the red blood cells that carries oxygen to all parts of the body Hemoglobin is measured in grams per deciliter.

hemoglobin
A protein inside your red blood cells It is the part of the red blood cell that carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body Hemoglobin also carries sugar, because sugars can stick to all kinds of proteins in your body. a type of protein in the red blood cells that carries oxygen to the tissues of the body.

hemoglobin
The protein found in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs to the tissues where the oxygen is readily released and CO2 from the tissues to the lungs where it is released. the iron-containing pigment of the red blood cells.

hemoglobin
An iron-containing conjugated protein or respiratory pigment occurring in the red blood cells of vertebrates.

hemoglobin
A respiratory protein contained in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs to the tissues of the body Its structure consists of two pairs of globin chains and a heme group that binds the oxygen.

hemoglobin
This protein carries oxygen in the blood.

hemoglobin
The part of the red blood cells that carries oxygen.

hemoglobin
Iron-containing pigment of the red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues.

hemoglobin
A protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen and carbon dioxide and gives blood its red color.

hemoglobin
The component of red blood cells that carries oxygen.

hemoglobin
The protein found in red blood cells that carries oxygen Hemoglobin gives blood its red colour. an iron-containing respitory pigment of red blood cells that is made up of a globin composed of four subunits Each subunit is linked to a heme molecule that functions in transporting oxygen to tissues, and assists in carbon dioxide transport back to the lungs after it surrenders its oxygen.

hemoglobin
The oxygen-carrying pigment of red blood cells, it is manufactured in bone marrow, and composed of iron-containing heme and the protein globin Many types of hemoglobin have been identified, however adult and fetal types are considered to be normal Tests to measure hemoglobin concentration and to determine abnormal hemoglobin types are performed to identify anemias and other blood diseases. the part of red blood cells that carries oxygen to tissues. a hemoprotein composed of globin and heme that gives red blood cells their characteristic color; function primarily to transport oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues; 'fish have simpler hemoglobin than mammals'.
