The protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells is called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues throughout the body.
Red blood cells, also called erythrocytes, carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body tissues. These cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen and facilitates its transport throughout the body.
Blood cells receive oxygen in the lungs. Oxygen is inhaled through the air sacs in the lungs and diffuses into the bloodstream where it binds with hemoglobin in red blood cells. This oxygen-rich blood is then pumped by the heart to the rest of the body's tissues and organs.
The hemoglobin molecule in red blood cells are responsible for transporting oxygen.
The red blood cells themselves do not take any action to get more oxygen, but the kidneys sense a lack of oxygen and produce more erythropoietin (hormone responsible for producing red blood cells) and this in turn increases oxygen levels
blood.
White blood cells
Hemoglobin is what transports the oxygen in the red blood cells.
Oxygen binds to a molecule called hemoglobin in red blood cells.
The circulatory system and respiratory system work together to provide the body's cells with oxygen and to carry away the carbon dioxide that cells generate as respiratory waste. The respiratory system gets air into lungs and in the small air sacs were oxygen is transported into the blood, and the circulatory system carries the oxygen in the red blood cells and delivers it to cells in need of oxygen. The oxygen is stored in the hemoglobin in the blood, and the blood is pumped around the bodily organs by the heart, releasing oxygen at the organs.
The protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells is called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues throughout the body.
The heart pumps oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body through a network of blood vessels called arteries. Oxygen is delivered to cells and tissues by the red blood cells in the bloodstream.
Oxygen is transferred to the cells by our red blood cells which have a special molecule called hemoglobin inside. The hemoglobin molecule binds to the oxygen molecule and the reb blood cells transports the oxygen to wherever it is needed.
Red blood cells, also called erythrocytes, carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body tissues. These cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen and facilitates its transport throughout the body.
Pathogens
Red Blood Cells carry oxygen to other body cells by using a molecule called hemoglobin. This molecule contains iron which is what oxygen is actually attached to.
