How isCarbon Dioxide is carried in the blood?

the same way oxygen is, through your cells. the cells absorb oxygen, so same for carbon dioxide.


What gas is found in cigarette smoke that stops the blood carrying to much oxygen?

Carbon Monoxide takes the place of oxygen on the red blood cells, so less oxygen can be carried around the body


What are the three forms in which carbon dioxide is carried by blood?

Two of the forms in which carbon dioxide is carried by blood is bicarbonate ion, and carbaminohemoglobi. The last form in the blood is a dissolved in plasma.


How does the oxygen that you breathe in get to the rest of your body?

You inhale oxygen/ It flows to the lungs. The lungs transfer the oxygen to the blood stream in exchange of carbon dioxide , which is exhaled. The blood stream flows to all parts of the body, and exchanged the oxygen for carbon dioxide, in muscles and other body organs. The carbon dioxide is then carried to the lungs and exhaled. This then begs the question, 'What happens to the carbon dioxide?. Carbon dioxide is a heavy gas and fall to the ground. Whereupon in is inhalked by green leafed plants; grass/leaves etc., In these plant, under the process of photsynthesis and in the presence of UV(sunlight) light, the plant breaks down the carbon dioxide into carbon , which is kept in the plant as biomass. The oxygen is then released back into the atmosphere for animals to breath. It is a natural cyclic process. That's putting it very simply. I am sure there are more complxities in the system.


Trace the pathway of oxygen and carbon dioxide?

Be a little more specific.In general: You breath in oxygen through your nose, into your lungs. It is carried from you lungs into the blood system and is carried be bonding to Iron in hemoglobin. It goes throughout the body because the heart pumps the blood through the circulatory system. Cells absorb Oxygen in order to perform aerobic reparation in the mitochondria. Carbon dioxide is a by-product of the production of ATP in aerobic respiration. At the end of ATP synthase Oxygen combines with hydrogen and forms water.
