____ carry oxygen throughout the human body.
A
veins
B
blood plasma
C
red blood cells
D
white blood cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Red blood cells contain a protein called hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Inside the air sacs, oxygen moves across paper-thin walls to tiny blood vessels called capillaries and into your blood. A protein called haemoglobin in the red blood cells then carries the oxygen around your body.

Detailed explanation-3: -The main job of red blood cells, or erythrocytes, is to carry oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues and carbon dioxide as a waste product, away from the tissues and back to the lungs. Hemoglobin (Hgb) is an important protein in the red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of our body.

Detailed explanation-4: -Blood has three main functions: transportation, regulation and protection. Our erythrocytes, or red blood cells, are the most abundant cell type in the human body. Additionally, erythrocytes are anucleated, which means they don’t have a nucleus.

Detailed explanation-5: -All red blood cells contain a red pigment known as hemoglobin. Oxygen binds to hemoglobin, and is transported around the body in that way. In tiny blood vessels in the lung, the red blood cells pick up oxygen from inhaled (breathed in) air and carry it through the bloodstream to all parts of the body.
