Red blood cells (RBCs) are a type of blood cell whose role is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the peripheral tissues of the body. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli of the lungs into the RBCs, where it binds to hemoglobin. One molecule of hemoglobin can bind four molecules of oxygen (O2).

zalisa [80]

Answer:

Any combination of D, E and F

Explanation:

Since A, B, and C belong to different orders, and D, E and F belong to the same order, the latter are more closely related and thus are expected to show a greater degree of structural homology. They are closer to their common ancestor than A, B and C.
