How is oxygen transpoted by blood?

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.


Do the lungs take carbon dioxide from the blood?

No. Your lungs pass oxygen into the blood and also pass carbon dioxide to the air outside your body. Oxygen combines with carbon to form carbon dioxide. This happens in our muscles, among other places.

Oxygen in the bloodstream flows into the cell's?

As oxygen goes into the red blood cells, it combines with the haemoglobin in it to form oxy-haemoglobin. each haemoglobin combines to 4 molecules of oxygen and because of the absence of a nucleus,more oxygen an be carried. When the red blood cells reach an area of deoxygenated blood, the oxygen from the red blood cells diffuses into the area requiring oxygen while the carbon dioxide moves into the red blood cells. The carbon dioxide then combines with the haemoglobin to form carbinohaemoglobin and is then taken to the lungs where it is unloaded and oxygen is loaded again. This process goes over again and again.
