Iron is a key component of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin the the protein responsible for transporting oxygen uses iron to bond oxygen. Additionally Hemoglobin is a key component of RBC (erythrocytes)... If iron is deficit the body is not able to produce red blood cells and it can result in iron deficient anemia.
