Through the blood. Oxygen is drawn in by the lungs, binds to hemoglobin proteins within erythrocytes (aka red blood cells), and the erythrocytes are then pumped by the heart throughout the body, supplying all cells with oxygen.
Lead replaces Iron in your Hemoglobin. The Iron binds oxygen for transport to the cells. Lead does not bind the oxygen, and thus you effectively get less oxygen supply.
deatroys the number of circulating red blood cells
The blood moves around the body inside the circulatory system. This is made up of arteries, veins and capillaries. The blood keeps moving through these blood vessels because it is pumped by the heart. Valves prevent the blood from flowing backwards. The blood always circulates through the body in the same direction.
Oxygen is needed for respiration. This is how all our cells release energy. All the body cells and white blood cells therefore need oxygen. Red blood cells don't use oxygen, they undergo anaerobic respiration, but they transport the oxygen needed by other cells.
Oxygen binds to a molecule called hemoglobin in red blood cells.
Oxygen is transferred to the cells by our red blood cells which have a special molecule called hemoglobin inside. The hemoglobin molecule binds to the oxygen molecule and the reb blood cells transports the oxygen to wherever it is needed.
The molecule that bind oxygen in the blood stream is hemoglobin. The O2 attaches to the molecule allowing it to be carried around the body to the other cells.
Red blood cells contain the substance haemoglobin, which is an iron-based molecule that binds to oxygen molecules for transport around the body.
Oxygen circulates through the body in blood. A molecule of oxygen (O2) from the lungs binds loosely to a molecule of hemoglobin in a red blood cell. The red blood cell travels through the capillaries and the oxygen molecule is released from the hemoglobin and is delivered to the cells.

Red blood cells are packed full of a protein called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin has a molecule of iron in each protein molecule. This hemoglobin is what carries oxygen. The oxygen binds with the iron.
Oxygen can travel dissolved in the plasma, but mostly it binds to a specific molecule - hemoglobin - found in red blood cells.
Carbon dioxide binds to oxygen receptor sites on the hemoglobin molecule some 500 times better than oxygen and prevents the red blood cells from transporting oxygen. It eventually stops red blood cells from moving since the organism dies.
Heme
The molecule that carries oxygen is the hemoglobin molecule. The cell that carries oxygen is the red blood cell.Blood. Red Blood cells. Or Haemoglobin in the red blood cells depending on what level you are looking at.The protein that carries oxygen in the blood is Haemoglobin(hemoglobin).
