### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Hemoglobin**: Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells (RBCs) that is responsible for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. It gives blood its red color. 2. **Types of Hemoglobin**: - **Oxyhemoglobin**: This is hemoglobin that is bound to oxygen. It is formed when hemoglobin picks up oxygen in the lungs. - **Deoxyhemoglobin**: This is hemoglobin that has released its oxygen to the tissues.
