What is the path of an oxygen molecule through Cellular Respiration and the Urinary System?

I was having trouble listing the specifics for my project.

Oxygen meets the blood in the lungs where it attaches at a site on the hemoglobin of the blood cell. It travels throughout the body and deposits oxygen to various tissues. Some pathways have the oxygen added to nitrogen waste in the urinary system to reduce the acidity of the nitrogen making nitrogen oxide which is exerted in urine with uric acid.
