Hemoglobin Determination

1. Describe the ration of hematocrit to hemoglobin for the healthy male (sample 1) and female (sample 2). Discuss any differences between the two individuals.

2. Describe the ratio of hematocrit to hemoglobin for the female with iron-deficiency anemia (sample 3) and the female Olympic athlete (sample 5). Discuess any differences between the two individuals.

1. Describe the ration of hematocrit to hemoglobin for the healthy male (sample 1) and female (sample 2). Discuss any differences between the two individuals.

Both ratios are approximately 3:1 which is normal. The ratio for the female was 3.14:1, slightly higher than the male ratio of 3:1.

2. Describe the ratio of hematocrit to hemoglobin for the female with iron-deficiency anemia (sample 3) and the female Olympic athlete (sample 5). Discuess any differences between the two individuals.

The ratio for the iron-deficient female was 5:1 which is not normal. The ratio for the female Olympic athlete was 3:1.
