Hemoglobin Iron Form

Ferrous iron is the specific form contained in human hemoglobin red blood cells.
Fe2+ is the chemical designation for this reduced, functional state of iron.
Oxygen binding depends entirely on this ferrous state to transport oxygen effectively throughout the body.
Methemoglobin is formed if this iron is oxidized into the ferric (Fe3+) state, which is unable to carry oxygen.
