Lack of oxygen is called Hypoxia
The term is hypoxemia lack of oxygen in the blood means that the hemoglobin oxygen complex is not being formed properly the oxygen hemoglobin complex is HbO4 if less than four oxygen molecules combine with one hemoglobin then it is called oxygen deficiency in the blood It can also be caused by a lack of red blood cells-anemia
Oxygen
A lack of oxygen to the fire
Lack of oxygen and/or material to burn.
Believe it or not, cyanide kills us by inhibiting active transport, to such an extent that substances can no longer be transferred across cell membranes. This is one example of a substance that stops the process of active transport dead in its tracks.
avtive transport
It dies.
through lack of oxygen
Lack of active transport. Diffusion rates sets size limits.
lack of oxygen would be a harmful effect.
Me too quero saber
Medically, lack of oxygen is referred to as, "Hypoxia."
Carbon monoxide binds hemoglobin in blood more tightly than oxygen. This prevents oxygen from binding to blood cells and can cause death due to a lack of oxygen.

When breathing stops from lack of oxygen
Red blood cells normally transport oxygen through the bloodstream, releasing it to tissues that need it. However, carbon monxide bonds to the red blood cells much better than oxygen, and is not released once it combines with them. The red blood cells are unable to transport oxygen (they are already full of carbon monoxide), and you can become ill or die from lack of oxygen.
