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.
Does the kidney remove co2 from the blood?
The kidney uses its mouth and eats it up
The main fuction of red blood cells is to?
Carry oxygen around body, and remove CO2.
What acid-base imbalance occurred with hyperventilation?
When you have too much CO2, you start hyperventilating. What too much CO2 does is that it makes more acid in your blood. This problem is called acidosis. So your blood basically becomes too acidic, which leads to your body needing to remove this CO2 that is causing this.
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.
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.
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.
How does C02 get out of the body?
Carbon Dioxide is a byproduct of cellular respiration. After your cells remove CO2 as a waste product, it travels back through the blood, into capillaries in the lungs. From there, the CO2 is removed through exhalation when you breathe. An important thing to note is that your exhaled breath is not 100% CO2. It is a mixture of room air and CO2.
Oxygen diffuse into the blood at the alveoli?
Carbon dioxide does.
Place where blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2?
veins
