What else can I help you with?
Does the kidney remove co2 from the blood?
No, the kidneys do not remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the blood. The primary organs responsible for removing CO2 from the blood are the lungs, where it is exhaled during respiration. The kidneys are responsible for filtering waste products from the blood and maintaining the body's fluid and electrolyte balance.
Why is blood pumped to the lungs before its pumped round the body?
To remove CO2 and to replenish the O2 in the blood.
What are two functions of the respiration system?
To add oxygen & remove CO2 from blood.
The main fuction of red blood cells is to?
Carry oxygen around body, and remove CO2.
Is the CO2 in blood considered acidic or basic?
The CO2 in blood is considered acidic.
Which form of CO2 transport accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood?
Physically dissolved CO2 accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood. The majority of CO2 is carried in the blood as bicarbonate ions and carbaminohemoglobin.
Place where blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2?
The blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2 in the tissues where oxygen is delivered and CO2 is produced as a byproduct of cellular metabolism.
What happens when you have dirty blood?
it is blood that has co2
Does hyperventilation raise or lower blood sugar blood CO2 concentration?
does nothing to blood sugar, and lowers co2 to almost nothing.
What form of CO2 transport accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood?
Dissolved CO2 accounts for the least amount of CO2 transported in blood, with only about 5-10% of CO2 carried this way. The majority of CO2 in the blood is transported as bicarbonate ions and carbamino compounds bound to hemoglobin.
How would the movement of CO2 be affected if the concentration of CO2 in the lungs was equal or higher than the concentration in the blood?
If the concentration of CO2 in the lungs was higher or equal the concentration in the blood, there will be no diffusion of CO2 in the air of the lungs. The person will suffocate in this situation.
Why The heart and lungs jobs are important to us?
lungs remove CO2 and other unessential gasses from the blood, and adds oxygen to the body (the essential to life) and the heart pumps the blood full of oxygen through the body to the body cab use the oxygen. and it pumps the CO2 full blood to the lungs to dispel it from the body.
