Iron-rich colouring matter of red blood cells which carries oxygen.

The red pigment present in blood that is used to transport oxygen around the body.

An oxygen-carrying protein of vertebrates and some invertebrates.

The part of the red blood cells that carries oxygen.

Red-coloured, oxygen-carrying chemical in red blood cells.

The protein found in red blood cells which transports oxygen

A constituent of the red blood cells which contains iron and stores oxygen.

is found in red blood cells and contains the pigment which gives blood its colour. Because it can combine with, and then release, oxygen, it allows the blood to carry oxygen around the body.

The part of the red blood cell which carries oxygen.

a protein which consists of a pigment (haem) and polypeptides (globin). Haemoglobin gives blood its red colour. It takes up oxygen as the blood passes through the lungs and carries it to the body's tissues.

measurement of the amount of oxygen carrying haemoglobin in each litre of blood

The protein found in the blood of most vertebrates and some invertebrates that carries oxygen to the organs and tissues of the body.

The oxygen-carrying pigment of the red blood cells; combines with oxygen from the lungs and carries it to the body's cells.

Conjugated protein compound containing iron, located in erythrocytes of vertebrates; important in the transportation of oxygen to the cells of the body.

the oxygen-carrying pigment of the red blood cell

a complex protein-iron compound in the blood that carries oxygen to the cells from the lungs and carbon dioxide away from the cells to the lungs.

Haemoglobin (Hb) is a substance found in blood that carries oxygen around the body. The type of haemoglobin a person has is inherited from both parents. The usual type of haemoglobin that a person inherits is HbA, but there are about 300 other types of Hb in the world (genetic variants). Most people who have inherited one or more of these unusual haemoglobins have ancestors who came from areas such as Africa, the Caribbean, southern Mediterranean countries, the Middle East, South Asia, and the Far East but northern Europeans can also be affected. These unusual haemoglobins can be passed down in a family and if someone inherits two unusual haemoglobins, it may result in conditions such as sickle cell anaemia and thalassaemia.

The protein molecule in red cells responsible for carrying oxygen around the body.

the pigment in red blood cells that is responsible for carrying oxygen; haemoglobin bound to oxygen gives blood its red colour

Red blood cells which carry oxygen around the body. If the haemoglobin level in the blood is reduced, this is anaemia.

The red part of red blood cells which takes oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body, and then collects carbon dioxide and takes it back to the lungs where it is exhaled.

The iron-containing protein in red blood cells which transports oxygen.

A conjugated protein composed of haem and globin that gives red blood cells their characteristic colour; function primarily to transport oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues.

Oxygen carrying substance in red blood cells

Protein found in red blood cells that transports oxygen in the blood (also spelt hemoglobin)

The red pigment which carries blood to the liver. The portal vein is the other main source of blood flow to the liver.

the red coloured iron protein that carries oxygen in red cells

The substance in red blood cells that carries oxygen around the body.

Haemoglobin is the red pigment in red blood cells. It combines with oxygen in the lungs, transports it around the body and releases the oxygen to cells that need it.

The red pigment in red blood corpuscles. It is involved in transporting oxygen.

The red pigment in blood cells that carries oxygen to the tissues.

Haemoglobin is the oxygen carrying protein of the red blood cells.

A haem protein responsible the red colouring of blood and for the transport of oxygen to the tissues.

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.

The red, oxygen-carrying protein found in red blood cells.

A protein molecule found in red blood cells that transport oxygen

the iron containing pigment of red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the 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.

Red colouring in the red blood corpuscles, responsible amongst other things for the transport or binding of oxygen.

Red pigment in the blood cells carrying oxygen to the tissues.
