Blood that carries oxygen are more red.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It is the millions of iron-containing haemoglobin proteins that make blood red. Molecules with more oxygen bound to them are brighter red. When the red blood cells reach tissues that need oxygen, the oxygen is released from the haemoglobin and diffuses into the cells where it is used to make energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hemoglobin bound to oxygen absorbs blue-green light, which means that it reflects red-orange light into our eyes, appearing red. That’s why blood turns bright cherry red when oxygen binds to its iron. Without oxygen connected, blood is a darker red color.

Detailed explanation-3: -The pulmonary vein carries oxygen around the body back to the heart. It, therefore, has the greatest oxygen content. The primary pulmonary artery, also known as the pulmonary trunk, is a blood vessel that leaves the heart. More items
