Red Blood Cells
Red Blood Cells
Oxygen, CO2 and other waste
Hemoglobin is what transports the oxygen in the red blood cells.
To carry oxygen and nutrients to the cells of the body, and to carry toxins and waste products away from them.
Blood vessels carry oxygen and nutrients to the cells and removes CO2 and waste.
Oxygen, hormones, white blood cells.
The blood or the circulatory system carries oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and removes waste from them
Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that gives blood its red color and enables it to carry oxygen from the lungs and deliver it to all body tissues. Oxygen is used by cells to produce energy that the body needs, leaving carbon dioxide as a waste product. Red blood cells carry carbon dioxide away from the tissues and back to the lungs where it can be exhaled.
A major function of the red blood cells is to carry oxygen to all the tissues from the lungs_______________________________________________________________________A red blood cell transports oxygen for respirationRed corpuscles carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.
The circulatory system, comprising the heart, blood vessels, and blood, is responsible for transporting nutrients, oxygen, and waste products to and from all cells in the body. The heart pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body's tissues and organs, while the blood vessels transport nutrients and oxygen to the cells and carry waste products away for elimination.
Oxygen is transported in the blood by binding to hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells. Hemoglobin carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and cells, where it is used for energy production. Once it releases the oxygen, hemoglobin picks up carbon dioxide, a waste product, and transports it back to the lungs to be exhaled.
The protein contained within blood cells that allows them to carry oxygen is called Haemoglobin. The haemoglobin molecule can carry up to four oxygen molecules which are exchanged for carbon dioxide molecules released as a waste product from cell metabolism.
