Ketosis is a nutritional process characterised by serum concentrations of ketone bodies over 0.5 mM, with low and stable levels of insulin and blood glucose. It is almost always generalized with hyperketonemia, that is, an elevated level of ketone bodies in the blood throughout the body.
Hemoglobin (American) or haemoglobin (British) (/ËhiËmÉËÉ¡loÊbÉªn, ËhÉ-, -moÊ-/[1][2][3]); abbreviated Hb or Hgb, is the iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotein in the red blood cells of all vertebrates[4] (with the exception of the fish family Channichthyidae[5]) as well as the tissues of some invertebrates.
1. Red blood cells. 2. White blood cells. 3. Platelets. Red blood cells are responsible for transporting oxygen around the body to the tissues and organs that need it. As oxygen enters the blood stream through the alveoli of the lungs it binds to a special protein in the red blood cells called haemoglobin.This can be seen in the adjacent image.. Red blood cells. 2.
