Question

Which events occur during the recycling of aged or damaged erythrocytes? (Order is not important.)a: The heme group is converted into biliverdin.b: Bilirubin is placed in long-term storage in the liver.c: The iron ions in hemoglobin are removed.d: The iron ions are stored in the liver.e: The iron ions are stored in the red bone marrow.f: Membrane proteins and globin proteins are broken down and reused.g: The erythrocyte contents, excluding the globins, are excreted unchanged via the digestive tract.

Answer 1

Answer:

c. e. f. g

Explanation:

The erytrocytes by phagocytosis inside the liver, by the kupffer cell breaks down into the haemoglobin, later, inside the liver the globin part is separated to be used in proteins formation and the iron is separated from the heme group and could be that some part goes to the narrow bones and other part of the heme group turns into bilirubin and goes to the bile and later to the gall bladder.
