OUR HAEMOGLOBIN ~ An Acrostic 3 ~ 11 Sonnet

 

HAEM COMBINES WITH OXYGEN TO FORM OXYHAEM ~ OK

 

OUR HAEMOGLOBIN  is very important to

US ALL !  Ensuring Oxygen in our blood stream

REALLY  as important as Chlorophyll is to a Plant !

 

HOW  does Haemoglobin transport the Oxygen ?

A MOLECULE of HAEM contains IRON which picks up O2

ENTERS the bloodstream and travels round the body

MAKING  Oxygen available to the cells ~ in the form of

OXYHAEMOGLOBIN !  It releases its Oxygen ~ and then

GOES  back to the Lungs and picks up more ~ ad infinitum

LEVELS of Haemoglobin (Red Cells) in the blood are key !

OUR HEARTS  need to be healthy ~ to pump Oxygenated

BLOOD  round our bodies  ~ and then deoxed blood back to

INTERFACE with the lungs to pick up more Oxygen

NOBODY can live without BLOOD & OXYGEN !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

 

We can live THREE WEEKS without Food ~ THREE DAYS

without Water ~ but only THREE MINUTES without Oxygen.

Your LUNG / HEART system is your LIFE !  HEAM molecules

are contained in HAEMOGLOBIN which is synthesised in

the bone marrow ~ it takes 10 minutes to synthesis one

\"Molecule\" of HAEMOGLOBIN ~ we need IRON in our diet !

The diagram shows how HEAM is converted into OXYHAEM

to transfer OXYGEN from the Lung Alveoli to the Pulmonary

Capilliaries ~ back to the PUMP (HEART !) and into the

ARTERIES !  The Deoxygenated Blood is pumped back to the

Lungs via the VEINS ~ We are wonderfully designed ~ AMEN
