Fifty percent of the blood consists of plasma

Blood is a special body fluid that provides the body with oxygen, nutrition, temperature control and waste removal.  Blood is composed of about 55 percent plasma. Plasma is the liquid part of blood which contains red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Plasma consists mostly of water that has dissolved salts and proteins (albumin, antibodies) that perform functions such as helping blood to clot, defending the body against pathogens and movement of substances through the blood.

The prosthetic group of hemoglobin and myoglobin is _______?

The organic ring component of heme is _______?

Under normal conditions, the central atom of heme is ________?

In ________ the central iron atom is displaced 0.4 A out of the plane of the porphyrin ring system.

The central iron atom has _______ bonds: ________ to nitrogen atoms in the porphyrin, one to a _______ residue and one to oxygen.

Answer:

The hemoglobin is an important protein that transport oxygen in the body and contains the pigment that gives the red color to the red blood cells. The myoglobin protein is responsible for transport of oxygen in muscles.

The heme molecule acts as prosthetic group for both myoglobin and hemoglobin. The porphyrin ring is present in heme molecule. The iron molecule especially Fe2+ is present in heme molecule. The deoxyhemoglbin states occur when the central atom is displaced 0.4 Å. The iron central atom can form six bonds and forms four bonds with the prophyrin of nitrogen and one bond with histidine molecule. Histidine acts as a buffer fir the blood.
