Question

Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about how the components of hemoglobin are recycled?

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The globin of the RBC is broken down into constituent amino acids that can be reutilized by the phagocytic cells (this can occur in the spleen, liver and lymph node). The chains cannot be reused in their large form. The heme(iron) is transported by the blood to the bone marrow and is used to make new red blood cells.
