Red blood cell thus much more common than the other blood particles: there are about 4,000–11,000 white blood cells and about 150,000–400,000 platelets per microliter. Human red blood cells take on average 60 seconds to complete one cycle of circulation. The blood's red color is due to the spectral properties of the hemic iron ions in hemoglobin. Each human red blood cell contains approximately 270 million of these hemoglobin molecules. Each hemoglobin molecule carries four heme groups; hemoglobin constitutes about a third of the total cell volume. Hemoglobin is responsible for the transport of more than 98% of the oxygen in the body
Blood Red Sandman Blood Red Sandman "Blood Red Sandman" is the second single from Lordi's second album "The Monsterican Dream". The song's original title was "Blood Red Santa", but Asko Kallonen from BMG Finland thought it was inappropriate for a Christmas hit and many people said they would ban it because it painted a violent image of Santa. In a rebuttal to this Lordi decided to change the songs name to Blood Red Sandman which worked just as well as the original name. There is also a promo version given out by Mayan Records for promotion to their compilation album The Monster Show.
