Answer #1

The pathway of a red blood cell from the point it becomes oxygenated-

A RBC gets oxygenated in the Lungs---

From there It is carried By Pulmonary Vein----Left Atrium-- Left atrio ventricular Valve(Mitral Valve)--Left ventricle---Aoric Valve---Aorta ---Different Branches of Aorta---To any Organ in the Body

From there it gets deoxygenated and it Returns to Heart Through Either Superior Vena cava or Inferior Venacava

Superior Venacava(From upper half of the body)/Inferior Vena cava(From middle and lower half of the body)---Right Atrium---Right atrioventricular Valve(Tricuspid Valve)---Right Ventricle---Pulmonary Valve---Pulmonary Artery--Lung where it again gets oxygenated

When red blood cell (RBC) hemoglobin is exposed to high blood glucose levels, it becomes glycated. The hemoglobin A1c test measures the percentage of glycated red blood cells in whole blood as an indicator of blood glucose levels over the 90-day lifespan of an RBC. Hemoglobin A1c levels between 4% and 5.9% are considered normal. A1c levels are well correlated with average blood glucose levels. An A1c level of 6% (minimal for a diagnosis of diabetes) is equivalent to an...

Picture a single red blood cell in the right ventricle of the heart. Describe the general pathway this red blood cell follows (in the correct sequence) as it moves through the human heart and body, eventually arriving back at the right ventricle. Include the names of the major blood vessels and heart chambers that this cell passes through during its journey.

The Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the tissues of the body and carry carbon dioxide from the tissues of the body to the lungs. Each red blood cell contains millions of hemoglobin proteins that bind to oxygen and carbon dioxide allowing for transport. (isotonic blood), the morphology of red blood cells can be described as slightly ovoid, biconcave disks. When severe dehydration occurs, blood becomes hypertonic: water exits red blood cells and enters into the blood...

When carbon dioxide is unloaded from the red blood cell during external respiration. Which process must occur? 1. oxygen leaves hemoglobin to to the alveolus 2. carbon dioxide combines with water to form carbonic acid 3. bicarbonate leaves the red blood cell in exchange for a chloride ion 4. carbon dioxide enters the red blood cell and binds to hemoglobin 5. hemoglobin buffers the cell by carrying H+

(a) Red blood cells often become charged and can be treated as point charges. Healthy red blood cells are negatively charged, but unhealthy cells (due to the presence of a bacteria, for example) can become positively charged. In the figure, three red blood cells are oriented such that they are located on the corners of an equilateral triangle. The red blood cell charges are A = 2.20 pC, B = 7.10 pC, and C = ?4.30 pC. Given these charges,...
