I believe the answer my friend is iron
Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that enables them to carry oxygen. Iron is an important component of hemoglobin.
Hemoglobin.
The hemoglobin in the red blood cell allows it to carry oxygen.
The molecule in red blood cells that enables them to carry oxygen is hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells that binds to oxygen in the lungs and releases it to body tissues as blood circulates. Each hemoglobin molecule can bind to four oxygen molecules.
think is hemoglobin. or something like tht...
It is called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin carries oxygen and iron to the tissues.
Hemoglobin combines readily with oxygen.
All oxygen transportation chemicals in animals employ a metal ion in the centre of a globin group. In higher animals it is Iron (the heme of hemaglobin), in the horseshoe crab it is Copper, which is why they have blue blood. In certain hemi-cordates it is zinc which gives them purple blood.
I'm not quite sure how it would ENHANCE oxygen transfer, but hemoglobin itself is what is in blood and is responsible for the carrying of oxygen to different parts of the body. So the hemoglobin in a fetus would just be what is used to get the oxygen from the mothers blood into its blood.
Its called hemoglobin. it also gives the color to red blood cells, when carrying oxygen, and the bluish color when they carry carbon dioxide.
The cells that carry hemoglobin are red blood cells. Their scientific name is erythrocytes.
