A hemoglobin level of 12g/dl is normal for an adult female, but low for an adult male. What is this is an example of?.

Respuesta :

Less hemoglobin (responsible for transporting oxygen in the blood) make the comparison between the performance of a man and a woman unfeasible.

HEMOGLOBIN

Hemoglobin is a protein present in the bloodstream, capable of binding to oxygen molecules and thus transporting them throughout the body. Women have about 10% less hemoglobin (responsible for transporting oxygen in the blood) than men, which limits performance in long-term activities that require oxygen.

HEART AND LUNG

Both organs are smaller in women, making it difficult to pump blood and oxygen, which explains the faster heart rate, even at rest, in women.

MUSCLE

Women have about 30% less lean mass and 10% more body fat than men, which leads to less muscle strength development and more weight to carry while running. The presence of testosterone also contributes to making men stronger and more resilient.

HORMONAL CHANGES

Because of them, which are more strongly evident during the menstrual period, women are more likely to have ligament laxity, with a higher incidence of anterior cruciate ligament injuries of the knee and ankle sprains. They also have wider hips and tighter thigh joints and leg muscles.

With this information, we can conclude that there is a difference between the body of men and women,  hemoglobin is lower in women because the cardiovascular system needs less oxygen in the muscles than men, because men have greater muscle tone.
