. . Transport of Oxygen Molecular oxygen is carried in blood in two ways bound to haemoglobin within the red blood cells and dissolved in plasma. Oxygen is poorly soluble in water, so only % of the oxygen is transported in the dissolved form. % of oxygen binds with haemoglobin in a reversible manner to form oxyhaemoglobin (HbO ). The rate at which haemoglobin binds with O is regulated by the partial pressure of O . Each haemoglobin carries maximum of four molecules of
