Each haemoglobin molecule in the blood takes on 4 oxygen molecules in the lungs; that freshly-oxygenated blood returns to the heart for distribution around the body so the oxygen can be transferred to tissue cells needing it.

How do you think oxygen gets from your lungs to all the cells of your body?

Oxygen diffuses through the alveoli in the lungs into the blood stream. Here, haemoglobin bonds with the oxygen, forming oxy-haemoglobin. When needed, the oxy-haemoglobin breaks down to form oxygen and haemoglobin to unload the oxygen into nearby cells.


Why are red blood cells important to the circulatory system?

Provide oxygen to the entire body, from the brain to the pinky toe. Blood is circulated via the Pulmonary Artery from the heart to the lungs, and from the lungs (where oxygen is absorbed by the red blood cells) to the rest of the body. After the oxygen has been dispersed, the blood cells begin the cycle anew.
