What else can I help you with?
How do the cells of the hydra get oxygen?
Hydra cells get oxygen through diffusion.
What clot reduced oxygen and glucose delivery to cardiac cells?
A clot in a coronary artery.
How does a blocked artery cause less oxygen to reach the heart?
Arteries carry blood, oxygenated by the lungs, to the cells of the body. Since the heart is a large muscle, its cells need oxygen too. When one of the arteries supplying the heart with oxygenated blood is blocked ("occluded") the oxygen cannot reach the cells supplied by that artery.
Do cells depend on oxygen for survival?
Yes, because cells are living things and all living things need oxygen to survive.
How do cells obtain oxygen?
Cells obtain oxygen through a process called respiration. In humans and other mammals, oxygen is inhaled through the lungs and absorbed into the bloodstream. It is then transported by red blood cells to tissues and cells where it is used in cellular respiration to produce energy.
What vessels that carry oxygen to the myocardial cells are called?
The vessels that carry oxygen to the myocardial cells are called coronary arteries. These arteries supply the heart muscle with oxygen-rich blood to support its function.
Where do red blood cells obtain oxygen?
Red blood cells obtain oxygen from the lungs where they pick up oxygen from inhaled air during the process of respiration. This oxygen is then carried by red blood cells to tissues throughout the body to support cellular functions.
The main function of red blood cells is to?
To transport oxygen to living cells.
How do the cells of a hydra get oxygen?
Hydra cells obtain oxygen through diffusion. Gases, including oxygen, are exchanged directly with the surrounding water through the body wall of the hydra. This process allows oxygen to enter the cells and carbon dioxide to exit.
All living cells obtain energy?
from the chemical bonds of ATP
What delivers blood rich in oxygen to the cells in the body?
Usually arteries carry blood rich in oxygen to body cells. However, arteries do not always carry oxygen. The word artery is an anatomical term meaning vessels leaving from the heart.
How do dogs obtain oxygen?
Dogs obtain oxygen by breathing in air through their noses and mouths. Oxygen from the air enters their lungs, where it is absorbed by the red blood cells in exchange for carbon dioxide. The oxygenated blood is then pumped through their body to provide energy for their cells.
