The statements are true.

Hemoglobin (Hb), is the oxygen-transport metalloprotein which contains iron in the centre of its structure. This metalloprotein is found in the red blood cells (erythrocytes). The function of hemoglobin is to transport the oxygen through the blood carries from the lungs to the rest of the tissues. Oxygen is necessary for the aerobic respiration in order to provide energy for the functions of the organism (metabolism).

If a swimmer cuts his foot on a seashell while wading in the ocean and bleeds into the seawater, his erythrocytes will shrink. W
Tom [10]

Answer:A) The ocean is hypertonic to the erythrocytes.

Explanation:cells shrink when placed in an hypertonic solution.

This shrinkage occurs does to the movement of water out of the cell and through the cell membrane.this phenomenon is called plasmolysis.

The movement of water out of this cell occurs through osmosis.osmosis is the movement of water from a region of high concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of solute, through a semi-permeable membrane.

In this case,sea water has a higher concentration of solute (hypertonic) and the blood cells has a lower concentration(hypotonic) .the cell membrane serves as the semi-permeable membrane and and a result water moves out of the cell
