Hemoglobin Determination 1. Is the male with polycythemia (sample 4) deficient in hemoglobin? Why? ___No because it was above the normal range. _____________________________ ______ _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ ___________ 2. How did the hemoglobin levels for the female Olympic athlete (sample 5) compare with the hemoglobin levels for the healthy female (sample 2)? Is either person deficient in hemoglobin? How well did the results compare with your prediction? _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ ___________ 3. List conditions in which hemoglobin levels would be expected to decrease. Provide reasons for the change when possible. _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ ___________ _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ ___________ 4.

How did the hemoglobin levels for the female Olympic athlete (sample 5) compare with the hemoglobin levels for the healthy female (sample 2)? Is either person deficient in hemoglobin? How well did the results compare with your prediction? The hemoglobin levels for the female Olympic athlete were higher than the healthy female. Neither person is deficient in hemoglobin.

Title: Re: Physioex 9.0 exercise 11 Post by: bio_man on Mar 27, 2012 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.
