Red blood cells carry oxygen to the rest of the body?

Answer 1

Yes, in every red blood cell is a quaternary protein called hemoglobin which has a heme group in each subsection that binds oxygen with an atom of iron and carries oxygen to all points of the body it is needed in.

Answer 2

Yes. Red blood cells contain the iron-based protein hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to the other cells in the body. The cells also pick up carbon dioxide to take back to the lungs.

Some other molecules, such as carbon monoxide, can also bind to hemoglobin and prevent it from carrying oxygen - this can cause injury or death unless the monoxide is displaced from the blood.

Answer 3

Correct, red blood cells contain a protein called hemoglobin that binds with oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues and organs throughout the body. This oxygen is essential for cells to produce energy through a process called cellular respiration.

Answer 4

Yes, red blood cells transport oxygen throughout the body. The oxygen binds to haemoglobin molecules in the R.B.Cs.

Answer 5

Red blood cells ONLY carry oxygen

mainly the Haemoglobin (pigment in red blood cells) carries the oxygen to be precise

Answer 6

Yes...for sure. they do.
