The hemoglobin that makes up each RBC. Iron is crucial to the formation of hemoglobin, and I believe is what the oxygen sticks to.
It is an iron-based protein called hemoglobin.
Oxygen is an element and it is not easy to make elements artificially.You can make artificial oxygen carriers that carry oxygen in the blood instead of hemoglobin.
Red blood cells in blood carry oxygen throughout the body. The actual chemical substance in red blood cells that carries oxygen is hemoglobin. Hemoglobin also carries carbon-dioxide when passed through capillarys, the part where the carbon dioxide is exchanged with the oxygen. capillaries are a cell thick for the lower blood presure.
hemoglobin it contains Iron (Fe) which is why its important to get a source of iron in your diet Each hemoglobin can carry 4 oxygen molecules-if oxygen was not bound in hemoglobin the blood would not be able to have a high enough saturation to supply tissues Carbon dioxide does not use hemoglobin as much as oxygen and more carbon dioxide can be dissolved in the blood itself compared to oxygen Also using the bicarbonate buffer CO2 is converted into HCO3- which can be even more dissolved in the blood than CO2 alone
The hemoglobin in the red blood cell allows it to carry oxygen.
Hemoglobin carries oxygen to the body's tissues. It is found in erythrocytes.
Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that enables them to carry oxygen. Iron is an important component of hemoglobin.
It is called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin carries oxygen and iron to the tissues.
The cells that carry hemoglobin are red blood cells. Their scientific name is erythrocytes.
Arteries, capillaries, and veins carry oxygen in the blood.
Hemoglobin

Hemoglobin is the iron-containing molecule that transports oxygen. Hemoglobin is found in red blood cells.
Hemoglobin! It'S a protein found in red blood cells that allows blood to carry oxygen.
Anemia is a disease where the blood doesn't carry enough oxygen, due to either a lack of blood cells or hemoglobin, or damage to the blood cells or hemoglobin.
Hemoglobin is the molecule in red blood cells that allows the blood to carry oxygen. Iron is one of hemoglobin's main components.
