Yes they do, but very little compared to the amount that they carry.
Red blood cells contain hemoglobin. These cells are also known as erythrocytes.
ways of transporting oxygen (presumably in the human body you are referring to) it is carried in the blood as part of the circulatory system-it is picked up from the lungs through alveoli -majorly carried in the blood as oxyhaemoglobin (oxygen combined with haemoglobin in red blood cells) -some can be dissolved in the blood plasma
Red blood cells carry primarily oxygen
red blood cells transport oxygen :)
Red blood cells transport oxygen in the blood.
Your red blood cells carry oxygen.
Erythrocytes or red blood cells carry oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the bloodstream. So oxygen is carried inside of these cells. It is delivered to the tissues (which are composed of cells) when oxygen-containing red blood cells enter a capillary that passes through a tissue. The oxygen leaves the red blood cells and passes through the wall of the capillary where it can be taken up by the cells of the tissue. Blood type refers to particular proteins called antigens on the surface of these red blood cells. Some people's red blood cells have the A antigen on their surface; these people have type A blood. Some people have the B antigen and are type B. Some have both (AB) and some have neither (type O). Any given person will only have one blood type (you only have type O or type A blood) and all of the red blood cells in that person are the same type. No one of these blood types is any better or worse than transporting oxygen.
The red blood cells in the blood carry oxygen to the cells. The oxygen is bound to hemoglobin, a protein in the red blood cells, and is transported throughout the body via the circulatory system.
oxygen is carried in red blood cells
Red blood cells, also called erythrocytes, carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body tissues. These cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen and facilitates its transport throughout the body.
Red blood cells carry oxygen to all the cells of the body.
Red blood cells carry oxygen to the body cells.
