Answer:
Oxygen molecules are small, and all cells need it for respiration to release energy from food molecules. Because there's a higher concentration of oxygen molecules outside the cell compared to the cell's cytoplasm, you'll see that oxygen diffuses into the cell along this concentration gradient.

The diagram discusses the facilitation of oxygen diffusion in haemoglobin solutions and oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane which is transported in blood plasma by free diffusion and by convection.
- The passage of oxygen through aqueous solutions can be extensively enriched by the presence of haemoproteins, such as myoglobin and haemoglobin.
- These proteins can react reversibly with oxygen and these oxygen meshes migrate together with free oxygen, according to an oxygen-one-sided pressure gradient.
- Thereby, the oxygen change is said to be facilitated.
- The reaction of oxygen with haemoglobin impacts hydrogen-ion binding to the protein.
- As oxygen-rich blood travels by a cell and oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane to the region of lower concentration inside the cell.
