QUESTION #1 - ANSWERED BY YOU EARLIER - NEEDED TO ANSWER QUESTION #2, WHICH FOLLOWS AFTER THIS QUESTION. Each molecule of hemoglobin has four Fe atoms. Explain how you would use the radioisotope Fe-59 (half-life = 46 days) to show that the iron in a certain food is converted into hemoglobin. It could be calculated via checking out the conc. of Hb iron. As, suppose a molecule ‘A’ converts into ‘B’ form in 2 days, then, after two days we should expect the presence of B form not A form, which could be diagnosed with the help of radio isotopic method. The use of cation exchange systems to isolate iron from blood and of better instrumentation may permit the measurement of stable isotopes of iron while, the use of thermal-ionization mass spectrometry could also be done with it.QUESTION #2Design an experimental where you compare the ability of two different foods (which you have previously determined places Fe atoms into hemoglobin) to place more Fe into hemoglobin than the other food.

Iron is a compulsory nutrient for us. As, it is present in R.B.C (as a part of Proto-porphyrin ringof Hemoglobin) as well as it takes part in various reactions of the body due to its role as...
