Where are your blood cells made

Biology
1 answer:
Alexeev081 [22]3 years ago
6 0

Red blood cells. Red blood cells (also known as erythrocytes) are cells in the blood that carry oxygen to all parts of the body. They are made in the spongy marrow inside the large bones of the body. Bone marrow constantly makes new red blood cells to replace old ones.



. In vertebrates, it is composed of blood cells suspended in blood plasma. Plasma, which constitutes 55% of blood fluid, is mostly water, and contains proteins, glucose, mineral ions, hormones, carbon dioxide, and blood cells themselves. Albumin is the main protein in plasma, and it functions to regulate the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. The blood cells are mainly red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. The most abundant cells in vertebrate blood are red blood cells. These contain hemoglobin, an iron-containing protein, which facilitates oxygen transport by reversibly binding to this respiratory gas and greatly increasing its solubility in blood. In contrast, carbon dioxide is mostly transported extracellularly as bicarbonate ion transported in plasma.

Which of the following factors is needed during light-dependent reactions to create ATP and NADPH energy molecules?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: The correct answer is- Solar energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Light dependent reactions comprise the first phase of photosynthesis (formation of food by green plants and algae in presence of sunlight) process.

This phase occurs in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplast.

During this phase, a green pigment chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight (in the presence of carbon dioxide and water) and convert it into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.

This energy is further utilized in the formation of food (glucose) in the next phase, which is a light independent phase of photosynthesis.

In photosynthesis, oxygen is produced by splitting of water molecule and it is released in the atmosphere.

Thus, solar energy, carbon dioxide, and water is the right answer.
