Answer:

1. erythrocyte becomes trapped in the sinusoids of spleen.

2. Spleen macrophages digest the erythrocytes.

3. Hemoglobin is broken down into amino acids, iron and bilirubin.

4. Iron ions and amino acids are recycled to make new hemoglobin in red bone marrow. Bilirubin is sent to liver for excretion.

Explanation

Aging erythrocytes are trapped in the sinusoids of the spleen, where they are digested by macrophages. Within the macrophage, hemoglobin is broken down into amino acids, iron ions, and bilirubin.

Iron ions or heme ion and amino acids then move through the blood to the bone marrow, where they are recycled and used to create new hemoglobin. Bilirubin travels with the help of the blood to the liver, where it is modified and then excreted.

thus, the correct order is :

1. erythrocyte becomesrapped in the sinusoids of spleen.

2. Spleen macrophages digest the erythrocytes.

3. Hemoglobin is broken down into amino acids, iron and bilirubin.

4. Iron ions and amino acids are recycled to make new hemoglobin in red bone marrow. Bilirubin is sent to liver for excretion.

<span>The Golgi body are the ones that slightly alter, organize and prepare so-called parcels to be delivered for all the organelles in the cell. They receive these packages mainly in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. These packages that set out by Golgi body are macromolecules that used and synthesized by cells in many operations. If ER is absent then it would only mean that Golgi body would have no use other than simply lysosomes but these macromolecules plays a dynamic role in many organelles –nutrients, ATP and cell metabolism. It'll have a ripple effect if ER is absent in the cell.<span> </span></span>
