In 5.5ml blood, there will be 3.3 micrograms of iron present.
Iron is used by the body to produce hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body, and myoglobin, a protein that provides oxygen to muscles.
In the given scenario, we need to find iron amount in 5.5ml blood.
We know that,
1ml = 0.001 dl.
5.5ml = 0.055dl.
As we know that there is nearly 60 micrograms of iron per deciliter of blood.
So, 0.055 dl of blood will have 3.3 micrograms of iron.
