What else can I help you with?
What carries carbon dioxide wastes away from the cells of the body?
Red blood cells carry most carbon dioxide wastes away from the cells of the body.
Where the exchange of oxygen carbon dioxide and wastes take place?
The exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and wastes takes place in the lungs during respiration. Oxygen is taken up by the blood from the air in the lungs, while carbon dioxide and wastes are released from the blood into the lungs to be exhaled out of the body.
What are two examples of wastes that the urinary system removes from the blood?
carbon dioxide and ammonia
What are the three major blood gases found in the blood?
Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, and Nitrogen
How are the wastes of cellular respiration transported to the lungs?
Carbon Dioxide Carbon dioxide (along with any dissolved gases) are transported through the blood to the lungs.
Is it true that blood gases include oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen?
Yes. But nitrogen is inactive.
Carbon dioxide enters the blood at the?
Capillaries. The diffusion of nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide and wastes take place in the capillaries. If you want to be more specific, it would be the venous ends of the capillaries where carbon dioxide enters the blood.
What job the lungs perform in eliminating wastes from the body?
Yes, in a way. They take out the carbon dioxide from the blood and put the oxygen back in the blood. The sole purpose of the blood is to get oxygen from the lungs and bring it to other body parts and take the carbon dioxide back to the lungs.
What makes the blood flow continuously throughout the body?
The heart pumps blood throughout the body to exchange nutrients/wastes and oxygen/carbon dioxide.
The condition called cyanosis is caused by an increased blood concentration of?
nitrogen and deoxygenated hemoglobin in the blood.
Is there gas in your brain?
Not free gases, but there are several that can be dissolved in blood: nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, even sulfur dioxide and gaseous hydrogen compounds.
What is stored in the red blood cells?
The red blood cells store and transport nutrients and wastes throughout the body. Nutrients include food and water molecules along with oxygen while wastes are carbon dioxide.
