Circulatory & respiratory system
the respiratory system, which contains the (THIS IS NOT IN ORDER) nasal cavity, mouth, throat, epiglottis, larynx, pharynx, voice box, esophagus, lungs, and the parts inside your lungs.
Oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in the electron transport chain; it is the final electron acceptor (this is also what makes it either aerobic or anaerobic respiration).
Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide
-Oxidative phosphorylation: oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, it also breaks apart and combines with 4 hydrogen atoms to form 2 water molecules. -The Citric Acid Cycle occurs only when oxygen is present but it doesn't use oxygen directly.
It is to carry oxygen from the lungs to tissue around the body.
pulmonary - lungs -- circulatory helps transport as well.

Iron found as part of hemoglobin which comprises most of each red blood cell (RBC).
Electron transport system
Platelets are involved in clotting, and red blood cells carry oxygen.
Oxygen is transported to body cells in the form of oxyhemoglobin.
Oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in the electron transport chain; it is the final electron acceptor (this is also what makes it either aerobic or anaerobic respiration).
Humans are designed to use lungs for efficient oxygen transfer. The body surface (called skin or the epidermis) is designed more to keep harmful things out than to let oxygen in.
Oxygen is a gas. In addition, gases other than oxygen are involved in the respiration process - such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen.
As far as the obvious: Red Blood Cells, Oxygen, and Iron. Hemogloblin is Iron Based, and is used in Red Blood Cells to Bind Oxygen for transport.
