Who performs the task of capturing oxygen in the blood?

Answer

Correct Answer : b ) Haemoglobin

Explanation :

Haemoglobin captures oxygen and transports it through the bloodstream by binding oxygen to each of its four heme groups.

These heme groups are prosthetic groups.

They are non-protein chemical compounds that are attached to Haemoglobin and are essential for its function.

Haemoglobin is a type of protein inside Red blood cells, which carries oxygen to the cells. It also carries carbon dioxide into the lungs.

Hence, (b) is the correct answer.
