Question

what do u mean by respiratory pigment write name of respiratory pigment in human​

Answer 1

Answer:

A respiratory pigment is amolecule, such as hemoglobin in humans and other vertebrates, that increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of theblood. The four most common invertebraterespiratory pigments are hemoglobin, hemocyanin, hemerythrin and chlorocruorin.

Answer 2

A respiratory pigment is any molecule that increases the oxygen carrying capacity of blood. The oxygen carrying capacity is simply the amount of oxygen the red blood cells in our blood can carry to our tissues and organs. In humans and most other vertebrates, the most common respiratory pigment is a protein called hemoglobin. Respiratory pigments also pick up carbon dioxide from our tissues and bring it to our lungs, where we exhale it.

How Does it Work?------

In mammals and most other organisms, red blood cells (RBCs) are anucleated. This means they don't have a nucleus. The absence of a nucleus allows for more hemoglobin to be contained within the cell, allowing for more oxygen or carbon dioxide to be transported around our body.

The RBCs in our body travel to the pulmonary capillaries of our lungs, where oxygen binds to hemoglobin (now called oxyhemoglobin). The oxygen-rich blood cells then travel around our body, delivering oxygen where we need it and picking up carbon dioxide as a waste product (now called deoxygenated hemoglobin).
