The answer would be: iron; red meat

Iron is needed to form heme part of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the molecule from red blood cells that could carry oxygen and carbon dioxide. Food that rich in iron should be red meat or liver. Only a few vegetables have high iron like spinach. A person with low red meat diet (like in vegetarian) will have high risk of iron deficiency.

Write a paragraph about your choice of organelle. Provide the answers to these questions within your paragraph:
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

I'm a eukaryotic, plant cell. I would be the central vacuole that stores excess water, food, and waste. There's only one of me in a plant cell. If I weren't in the cell, it would collapse or burst, because it well lose its turgor pressure. Moreover, the cell won't have enough space to store all the water and molecules needed for conducting photosynthesis. I resemble the stomach in a human body; a stomach stores food and water for later use.
