The oxygen transport in blood is carried out by 2 methods:1. A small amount of oxygen is dissolved in plasma and is transported as dissolved oxygen(typically 2–5 %). But remember this dissolution increases drastically with high partial pressure of oxygen in blood and in hyperbaric states. 2. 95–98% oxygen is transported by reversible binding to the heme moiety of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a tetrameric protein each monomer consisting of a iron (heme) group encapsulated by a protein moiety. The Fe(II) in heme binds oxygen reversibly which depends on Po2, pH , temperature etc… These factors play a vital role in release of oxygen and in binding of carbon di oxide to heme in tissues, too

What is the function of the endocrine system in mammals?
Endocrine system is ductless system concerned with transport of materials to various body parts through blood stream. MAINY we use endocrine glands words which means gland which pour there secretions in blood.

Do Snakes fly?
No, snakes do not fly. However, there is a species called Chrysopelea, or more commonly the flying snakes, that does appear to fly through the air but they are actually gliding. They are found in the rainforests of South and Southeast Asia. Some reasons of why they go airborne include escaping from predators, hunting their prey, and going from one tree to another.
Which oviparous animals have visible outer ears?
If, by ‘outer ear' you mean an external ear like me or you, or just an identifiable ear? Because if the latter is the case, all birds have holes at the sides of their heads…
If you mean the former, then the spectrum is pretty narrow, as only mammals have external ears. And egg-laying mammals are Platypus and echidna, of which only echidnas have visible external ears.
Is the word 'tentacles' only related to octopus or any animal?
Many animals are associated with tentacles. Yes, octopuses are too. Other animals having tentacles are Hydra, sea anemone, some species of snails, squids. Even a mammalian species found in the Northern parts of America, Condylura cristata (star-nosed mole) has tentacles around its nose.
So, tentacles are not only limited to octopus, but are seen in diverse forms across the animal kingdom.
