Inadequate oxygen supply to tissues is known as hypoxia, of which there are 4 kinds. The kind that is due to a reduction of functional hemoglobin is known as anemic hypoxia
Hemoglobin
hemoglobin
Red blood cells contain a protein called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is able to bind to oxygen molecules. Therefore, the presence of hemoglobin the red blood cells makes them capable of carrying oxygen.

Hemoglobin
The part of the blood that is responsible for carrying oxygen is hemoglobin. The hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the alveoli of the lungs. Then the hemoglobin releases the oxygen at the cells. The part of the hemoglobin molecule that is directly responsible for carrying the oxygen is the iron ion in the center of the molecule's structure. The iron ion changes from a Fe +2 ion to a Fe +3 when carrying the oxygen. Then the hemoglobin reaches the cell, the iron ion decomposes back to the more stable Fe +2 state, replacing the oxygen with a water molecule.

Hemoglobin is an oxygen-carrying pigment in human blood. It includes iron in its makeup.
Oxygen is transported as reduced hemoglobin in the blood. In this form, hemoglobin has bound to oxygen molecules and is carrying them to tissues throughout the body.
