Hemoglobin is the compound in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to body cells. The oxygen combines readily with the ion in hemoglobin, and hemoglobin can carry more than twenty times its own volume in oxygen. After releasing oxygen to the cells, hemoglobin collects carbon dioxide and carries it to the lungs where it is exhaled.

How are oxygen and carbon dioxide transpoted in to the blood?
Trough Arteries & Veins. Oxygen rich blood leaves the heart in your arteries. When the oxygenated blood reaches its destination it is exchanged in vessels, called capillaries, for other gas, nutrients, and waste which is then transported back to the heart/lungs to be oxygenated once again.

What if oxygen-rich blood mixes with your oxygen-poor blood?

Why does blood circulate from the heart to the lungs?
The oxygen poor blood (not enough oxygen) goes to the lungs to get more oxygen to turn into oxygen rich blood (has plenty of oxygen)
Why is it important for your heart to separate oxygen rich blood from oxygen poor blood?
If the oxygen-rich blood and the oxygen poor blood mix the amount of oxygen becomes diluted. The cells and tissues need more oxygen than they will get.
Why is it important for your heart to keep oxygen rich blood separate from oxygen-poor blood?
If the oxygen-rich blood and the oxygen poor blood mix the amount of oxygen becomes diluted. The cells and tissues need more oxygen than they will get.

Do we have oxygen poor blood in your lungs?

What color is oxygen-poor blood?
Oxygen-poor blood is dark red; oxygen-rich blood is bright red.
