As blood passes through lungs, there is exchange of oxygen and carbon bi oxide, from high concentration to low concentration and oxygen enters the blood from air to blood to make it oxygen rich.

What happens when blood reaches tissues?
When blood reaches the tissues, cells, and organs via the capillaries, materials diffuse across the capillary wall so that the cells, tissues, and organs receive nutrients and oxygen, and eliminate wastes.
What happens after oxygen is transported in the blood to all parts of the body?
Blood cells would then collect carbon dioxide and transport that to the either the inferior or superior vena cava. Then, either one of these large veins would transport the bad blood to the right atrium where it reaches the right ventricle. After, the blood is forced through the pulmonary artery to the lungs, and out of the body!
What happens to oxygen when it reaches the lungs?
it becomes oxygenated and travels through the pulmonary artery back to the heart where it then gets pumped to the body
What effects does carbon monoxide have?
It is an air pollutant which cause environmental and health problems. If carbon monoxide (CO) reaches your bloodstream, it will be stuck with the red blood cells and prevents it from giving oxygen to your rest of your body (you die).
Oxygen in the bloodstream flows into the cell's?
As oxygen goes into the red blood cells, it combines with the haemoglobin in it to form oxy-haemoglobin. each haemoglobin combines to 4 molecules of oxygen and because of the absence of a nucleus,more oxygen an be carried. When the red blood cells reach an area of deoxygenated blood, the oxygen from the red blood cells diffuses into the area requiring oxygen while the carbon dioxide moves into the red blood cells. The carbon dioxide then combines with the haemoglobin to form carbinohaemoglobin and is then taken to the lungs where it is unloaded and oxygen is loaded again. This process goes over again and again.
What happens to the oxygen when it reaches the alveoli?
oxygen enters the blood and carbon dioxide
What happens when blood reaches tissue that doesnt have enough oxygen?
Once oxygenated blood reaches the capillaries, the velocity of the blood is very slow - which favours the exchange of oxygen. Oxygen therefore diffuses across the walls of the capillaries into the tissues that need it.
What happens when blood reaches the vein?
Blood flows through veins after delivering oxygen to the body.
What happens when the blood reaches tissues or cells that do not have enough oxygen?
The oxyhaemoglobin will break down and oxygen will release. :)
What happens to the blood when it reaches the lungs?
The blood is oxygenated that is oxygen which has been inhaled is added to the blood and the blood then transports it to other body parts.
What happens when the blood reaches cells that do not have enough oxygen?
They die because they are unable to produce energy and function. And shrink
What happens when blood reaches tissues?
When blood reaches the tissues, cells, and organs via the capillaries, materials diffuse across the capillary wall so that the cells, tissues, and organs receive nutrients and oxygen, and eliminate wastes.
What happens when fresh air containing oxygen reaches the lungs?
The red blood cells pick it up from the air and take it through the blood stream to the cells in the body.
What happens to the oxygen when it reaches the cells?
it is used in metabolic process
Oxygen reaches all parts of an animals body when?
Oxygen reaches all parts of an animal's body when it inhales via the lungs, and the oxygen enters the blood stream. The heart then pumps these oxygenated blood cells to the rest of the body.
What happens to the blood when it reaches the kidneys?
the kidneys clean it by removing the waste from the blood
How does oxygen from the alveoli reaches the heart?
From the Alveoli, it transfers to red blood cells, which travels through the circulation and reaches the heart.
