Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are the primary cells responsible for carrying gases in the bloodstream. They contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues throughout the body. Additionally, red blood cells help carry carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism, back to the lungs for exhalation.
