How does oxygen that is in the air get into your blood?
lungs pumps air to the heart and heart pumps air around body through blood
How does air passes through the lungs?
When one inhales, oxygen-rich air reaches the alveoliwhich are air sacs located in the lungs. The oxygen diffusesthrough the thin walls of the alveoli through the thin walls of the capillaries. The blood rich in oxygen carries it to the heart through the pulmonary vein. The heart pumps it through all parts of the body.Meanwhile, deoxygenated blood rich in carbon dioxide reaches the pulmonary artery of the heart from various parts of the body. The blood diffuses through the capillary wall into the alveoli, and is exhaled.Path of air (during inhalation) before reaching the alveoli:NostrilsNasal CavityPharynxLarynxTrachea (windpipe)BronchiBronchiolesAlveoli
Do whales breath air through there lungs?
No. They breath using their lungs or with their lungs, but not "through" their lungs. They do however breath "through" their blowholes (to get the air in and out of their lungs).
How does the heart carry air?
the heart does not carry air. the heart pumps blood that travels through the lungs, where the blood becomes enriched with oxygen. that blood returns to the heart, where it is then pumped throughout the body
How do the heart and lungs work?
When we breathe in our lungs fill with oxygen rich air. Membranes in the lungs exchange the oxygen from the air with carbon dioxide in the blood. Then we breathe out the spent air to inhale fresh. The blood, now replenished with oxygen, is pumped by the heart through the arteries to all cells in the body where the oxygen is exchanged with the cells for carbon dioxide and returned through the veins to the lungs.
