There are four atoms of iron in a molecule of hemoglobin. Each iron atom is attached to a porphyrin, forming a heme group. Each heme group is attached to a polypeptide chain.
There are two alpha and two beta polypeptides.
So a hemoglobin molecule has four heme groups, and four polypeptides.
What else can I help you with?
What mineral combines with protein to make hemogolbin?
iron
What protein containing iron in red blood cells that combines with and transports O2?
Hemoglobin is the iron containing protein in our red blood cells that combines with and carries oxygen.
Which mineral allows red blood cells to carry oxygen?
It is called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin carries oxygen and iron to the tissues.
Name the substance in red blood cells that combines with oxygen?
The protein "Hemoglobin" is responsible for the red color. Each hemoglobin molecule can bind up to 4 oxygen atoms. When fully loaded with oxygen atoms the protein takes on a more bright red color. When deprived of oxygen the protein takes on a darker red/blue color.

Carbon monoxide combines with what component of blood?
Carbon monoxide combines with hemoglobin in the blood to form carboxyhemoglobin, which reduces the blood's ability to carry oxygen.
What are the three kinds of protein in the hemoglobin?
The three kinds of protein in the hemoglobin are the albumin,fibrinogen,and the globulin.
