Title	A Simple Chemical Kinetic Model for Facilitated Diffusion
Abstract	We present a simple chemical kinetic model for facilitated diffusion of oxygen by a carrier molecule such as hemoglobin or myoglobin. This simple model mathematically illuminates the cause of the enhancement of the transport by the carrier molecules. Results from the simple model are compared to previous experimental and mathematical results.
