Oxygen is transported in blood by binding to the Hemoglobins. Then Hemoglobin will carry O2 through out our body. When blood reach to the organ, or cells, DIFFUSION process will be activated, O2 from High concentration (blood stream) diffuses to the Low concentration (cells).

∙ 14y agoThe blood of vertebrates contains a substance called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin has the relatively unusual ability of being able to carry oxygen and then release it when it is time to give it to the body's cells, and then bind to carbon dioxide and hold onto it until it is time to release it into the lungs where it can be exhaled. When hemoglobin binds to oxygen, it turns red, which is why blood has a red color.
