A deficiency of which of these limits oxygen delivery to cells resulting in fatigue and decreased immunity?

A deficiency of iron limits oxygen delivery to cells by affecting hemoglobin production, resulting in fatigue and decreased immunity. Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to cells in the body.


Delivery of oxygen and nutrients?

Oxygen and nutrients are delivered to cells in the body through the circulatory system. Oxygen is carried by red blood cells in the blood, while nutrients are transported through the bloodstream to reach cells throughout the body. This delivery process is essential for cell function and overall health.

What element in red blood cells bond to oxygen?

The element in red blood cells that binds to oxygen is iron, which is a key component of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells that facilitates the transport of oxygen from the lungs to the tissues and organs throughout the body. Each hemoglobin molecule can bind to four oxygen molecules, allowing efficient oxygen delivery.


Body cells receive oxygen and nutrients from food delivered by?

Blood does. It carries oxygen from the lungs with which you breath fresh air in. Then blood goes to the heart and is sent to the whole body with oxygen! Oxygen support the cells', and the body's life!
