Carbon dioxide transported in the blood?
describe how carbon dioxide is transported in the blood
How do oxygen and carbon dioxide move into and out of cells?
The are transported round attached to a molecule called haemoglobin, present in the red blood cells. The blood is then pumped round the body by the heart and Carbon Dioxide is replaced for Oxygen in the lungs and the converse in the body's capillaries.
How oxygen and carbon dioxide are carried by the blood?
Mostly nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide.
What are six substances transported in the blood?
Blood transports oxygen, glucose, amino acids, fatty acids, carbon dioxide, urea, hormones, drugs and heat.
What of these is a waste product of cells blood water oxygen or carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide and water
What supplies oxygen and eliminates carbon dioxide from the blood stream?
Lungs and Lungs. Blood that contains carbon dioxide means it is lacking oxygen, and the carbon dioxide was put into the blood as a waste product by all the other organs. The blood then reaches the lungs and exchanges the carbon dioxide for oxygen. The now oxygen-rich blood is transported to the heart where it is pumped throughout the body, and the carbon dioxide is exhaled from the lungs.
Name the main gas transported in the blood?
Oxygen and waste carbon dioxide are both carried by the blood.
What jobs do the Red Blood Cells do?
The red blood cells carry oxygen that is transported to the different organs in the body and absorbs carbon dioxide from the organs that is transported to the lungs where it is exhaled out of the body. The protein hemoglobin helps to bind oxygen and carbon dioxide in the red blood cells.
Two substances that are transported in blood?
im not quiet sure but i think it is oxygen and carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide transported in the blood?

What type of blood cell takes carbon dioxide away?
Red blood cells take carbon dioxide (CO2) away from body tissues. The carbon dioxide is then transported to the lungs where it can be exhaled.
How do oxygen and carbon dioxide move into and out of cells?
The are transported round attached to a molecule called haemoglobin, present in the red blood cells. The blood is then pumped round the body by the heart and Carbon Dioxide is replaced for Oxygen in the lungs and the converse in the body's capillaries.
Short note on heart?
the heart is a muscular organ which is as big as our fist. because both oxygen and carbon dioxide have to be transported by blood, the hear has different chambers to prevent the oxygen-rich blood from mixing with the blood containing carbon dioxide. the carbon dioxide rich blood has to reach the lungs for the carbon dioxide to be removed, and the oxygenated bolld from the lungs has to be brought back to the heart. this oxygen rich blood is then pumped to the rest of the body.
Gas is carried mostly by the plasma?
Gas is carried mostly by the plasma in the blood. The plasma contains dissolved gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, which are transported to different parts of the body. Oxygen is transported from the lungs to the tissues, while carbon dioxide is carried from the tissues back to the lungs for elimination.
What is deoxygenated blood?
it is blood that is rich in carbon dioxide rather than oxygen on the way back to the heart . the oxygen has been delivered to the body and carbon dioxide has replaced the oxygen. Blood that has released its oxygen. It is dark red in color with a tinge of blue. It is a common misconception that deoxygenated blood is blue. Oxygen bonds to hemoglobin in the blood cells and is transported to where it is needed in the body where it exchanges with carbon dioxide. Deoxygenated blood is found in veins and in the pulmonary artery.
What Blood which contains carbon dioxide and lack oxygen?
Venous blood is loaded with carbon dioxide and low in oxygen Arterial blood is rich in oxygen with little carbon dioxide
What type of blood has low oxygen and high carbon dioxide?
Deoxygenated blood is low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide.
