Solution

The correct option is C Haemoglobin transport of O2 in muscles
The pigmented proteins in the muscle fibers which impart the red color to the muscles is called myoglobin. This protein is involved in the process of oxygen storage in the muscle tissues by binding to it. In conditions such as hypoxia oxygen is released by the myoglobin. Hence it is the oxygen trasnsporter to the muscle fibers. Thus the correct answer is option C.
