It is to carry oxygen from the lungs to tissue around the body.
transport CO2 (carbon dioxide)
Erythrocytes aka red blood cells, specifically the hemoglobin of the red blood cells
erythrocytes
The Erythrocytes, more commonly known as red blood cells carry oxygen to the body.
Erythrocytes, or red blood cells (RBCs), are specialized cells used to carry oxygen to the body's cells and transport carbon dioxide away from those cells. It contains a protein called hemoglobin, which allows the cell to carry high concentrations of oxygen. RBCs do not contain a nucleus because they do not have need of one. Also, in order for the cells to be able to fit through the smallest capillaries in the body, the cells have to be kept as small as possible. A nucleus would counteract this goal and could cause sludging of the cells in the small vessels and capillaries.
The properties of red blood cells are small, biconcave cell containing Spectrin protein to change shape and bend; thin enough to bind and transport gases CO2 and O2; impermeable so hemoglobin can't get out and albumin can't get in.
Protein
I do believe that the answer is erythrocytes. Erythrocytes are the formed element in blood that transport oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Erythrocytes aka red blood cells, specifically the hemoglobin of the red blood cells
Erythrocytes (or red blood cells) are found in blood vessels and come from bone marrow. They transport oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body.
No, erythrocytes (red blood cells) transport oxygen throughout the body, not leukocytes (white blood cells)
If stem cells mature into erythrocytes (red blood cells), they will become specialized for oxygen transport in the body. Erythrocytes are responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the tissues and organs, as well as removing carbon dioxide waste. They have a unique biconcave shape and lack a nucleus to maximize their capacity for oxygen-carrying.
The erythrocytes, or red blood cells as they are more commonly known as, transport oxygen to the body's cells and extract the carbon dioxide and send it to the lungs to be excreted.
In the blood, hemoglobin loosely grabs oxygen for transport to the body cells. The red blood cells (erythrocytes) have the iron (from hemoglobin) that takes the oxygen for a ride.
Erythrocytes (Red Blood Cells) - specialized for oxygen transport - mature erythrocytes have no nucleus instead these disk - shaped cells are packed with the respiratory pigment Hemoglobin *Hemoglobin is an iron containing molecule that binds with oxygen
Erythrocytes also known as red blood cells contain haemoglobin that transports oxygen by combing with it to form oxyhaemoglbin.
also known as the red blood cells. They transport oxygen around the body, the tissue is called oxygenated blood. The oxygen is then diffused through the capilaries as they are just thick enough.
The primary function of red blood cells (scientifically know as erythrocytes) is to transport oxygen to wherever its destination may be.
