What blood vessel in fetus contain the most oxygen?
In the umbilical cord you have one vein and two arteries. This vein goes to the liver of foetus. This blood vessel contains most oxygen and food in case of foetus. After birth this vessel gets obliterated to form the falciform ligament.
What is the name of the organ system in the mothers body?
the aminotic fluid that the foetus gets before its born and when its a foetus
What process occurs when oxygen molecules move into a cell?
For starters, blood IS cells. Blood is made up of plasma and white & red blood cells. The oxygen gets transported straight to the red blood cells, and then gets used and coverted to CO2 which is transported out of the cell.
What is the molecule that gets picked up at the lungs and dropped off at body cells?
The molecule that gets picked up at the lungs and dropped off at body cells is oxygen. Oxygen is transported by red blood cells in the bloodstream, binding to hemoglobin for delivery to various tissues and cells in the body.
What two systems bring oxygen to the cells and C02 waste out of cells during respiration?
The respiratory system gets the oxygen from the air and releases CO2 from our body. The circulatory systemdistributes oxygen to individual cells and carries CO2 waste to the respiratory system.
How does the foetus get food and oxygen?
The fetus gets food and oxygen through the umbilical cord.

What is the organ system of the mothers body?
the aminotic fluid that the foetus gets before its born and when its a foetus
What is the name of the mothers organ system?

Where is oxygen when you breathe in?
Oxygen is in the air, and when you breathe in the oxygen gets into your lungs and is absorbed into the red blood cells.
Blood receive oxygen in the?
Blood gets oxygen in the cells. This is part of the body system.
How does the fetus obtain food and oxygen?
The mother's blood supply enters the foetus via the umbillical cord and allows oxygen to diffuse from the mother's blood into the foetus.
What way does oxygen gets into cells?
Diffusion from the intracellular fluid.
What is the name of the organ system in the mothers body?
the aminotic fluid that the foetus gets before its born and when its a foetus
How are nutrients absorbed by the fetus?
The nutrients are absorbed through the placenta by the foetus. The foetus gets the oxygen and nutrition from the mother. The blood of the mother and foetus comes very close to each other in the placenta. Both are not mixed up. They are separated by very thin membrane. The surface area of the contact is very large as compared to the size of placenta.
What system gets oxygen into the body so our cells can respire?
respiration
How oxygen from atmosphere gets into the mesophyll cells in a green plant?
by diffusion
