What else can I help you with?
What organs were the blood exchanges gases with the air?
The lungs.
Which organ is responsible for exchanging gases between the cell and lungs?
The lungs are responsible for exchanging gases between the inhaled air and the blood in the body. Oxygen is taken in by the lungs and carbon dioxide is released from the blood to be exhaled.
What is the fluid that is carrying gases to the body?
The fluid that carries gases to the body is blood. Oxygen is transported from the lungs to tissues by red blood cells, while carbon dioxide is transported back to the lungs to be exhaled.
How are the lungs adapted to their function?
The lungs are adapted for their function of gas exchange by having a large surface area provided by tiny air sacs called alveoli, where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged with the blood. This large surface area allows for efficient diffusion of gases. Additionally, the lungs are highly vascularized, meaning they have an extensive network of blood vessels to transport gases between the lungs and the rest of the body.
Why lungs need a good blood supply?
Lungs are an important part of the respiratory system in our body and it is because of lungs that we can burn the energy in our bodies. The oxygen and carbon dioxide in lungs is carried in or out of them with the help of blood vessels. This means that the blood vessels carry the oxygen to the body from the lungs and the carbon dioxide do the opposite thing. The red blood cells present in blood carry these respiratory gases and if there is inadequate blood supply to the lungs then the gases will not be absorbed properly. If the absorption of gases is faulty then the body will be deprived of the ability to burn energy, ultimately life.
Small sacs in the lungs that exchange gases with blood are what?
Frizzophigus
How your lungs refine oxygen from other gases?
Your lungs refine oxygen from the other gases in air because the gases diffuse through the cell walls in the alveoli in your lungs through osmosis (higher concentration of gases in the air than in the blood, so gases move from the higher concentration to the lower concentration) where they contact the red blood cells. The hemoglobin in the red blood cells binds to the oxygen and leaves all the other gases alone. It moves on from the lungs and delivers the oxygen to the rest of the body. It's the hemoglobin that does the work.
What kind of blood does lungs have?
Same blood as everywhere else. The difference is the gases in the blood: it enters the lungs low on oxygen and high in CO2, it leaves high in oxygen and low in CO2.
Which blood vessels in the lungs help your body take in and give out gases?
Gas exchange happens in the bed of CAPILLARIES in the lungs.
The function of lungs?
It is part of the reproductive system. it is the opening to the birth canal
When the right ventricle contracts where is blood push to?
When the right ventricle contracts it is pushes blood to the pulmonary arteries and to the capillaries of the lungs where exchange of gases takes place
What is the exchange of gases between the blood and air?
Diffusion. In the lungs, oxygen will diffuse into de-oxygenated blood (oxygen was removed from the blood in the body) and carbon dioxide will diffuse out of the blood into the lungs and expelled from your body when you breathe out.
