They are not formed in the body. Iron is a mineral and is also an element. It occurs in nature and we get iron into our bodies by ingestion. Usually the best sources for iron are green leafy vegetables, legumes, meats, and multivitamins with minerals.

How does the movement of molecules inside a solid block of iron change as the iron is heated?
The molecules move faster
Is Iron oxide formed from three iron molecules and four oxygen molecules?
Probably you mean Iron and Oxygene atoms? It is a mix of oxides Fe2O3*FeO.
Is rusting a 'physical' reaction?
Chemical. (Iron molecules plus oxygen molecules)
What type of macro molecule is iron?
No, iron is a metallic element and do not exists as molecules, macro molecules are those which contain thousands of atoms or molecules as a single unity as starch, proteins etc.
What are the atoms of iron that are in a molecule of iron?
Iron, being a metal does not form molecules. Being an element it consists entirely of iron atoms.
What were all the iron molecules are in your body were originally created by?
A star.
All the iron molecules that are in your body were originally created by?
a star
All the iron molecules that are in our body were originally created by?
An exploding (at the end of its life) star. Same for all the other atoms - except hydrogen.
A mineral needed in the body that bonds chemically to oxygen molecules?
the mineral is IRON
What happens to the molecules when a steel bar is left outside and starts rusting?
The molecules of iron combine with molecules of oxygen to form molecules of iron oxide- or rust.
How does the movement of molecules inside a solid block of iron change as the iron is heated?
The molecules move faster
How does the movement of molecules inside of a solid block of iron change as iron is heated?
Metals haven't molecules.
How many molecules are one mole of iron?
Iron is a metal and does not consist of molecules. The number of atoms of iron in one mole is 6.022 x 1023.
Is Iron oxide formed from three iron molecules and four oxygen molecules?
Probably you mean Iron and Oxygene atoms? It is a mix of oxides Fe2O3*FeO.
How many atoms of iron are found in 2 molecules of iron sulfate?
If iron(II), then iron sulfate is FeSO4. This has a single Fe atom per molecule (or two Fe in two molecules). If you have iron(III), then iron sulfate is Fe2(SO4)3. This compound has two iron atoms per molecule (or four Fe in two molecules).
What component of blood contains iron that binds with oxygen?
Red blood cells contain the substance haemoglobin, which is an iron-based molecule that binds to oxygen molecules for transport around the body.
Why is iron in your blood?
Iron is necessary to carry oxygen molecules to your cells.
