What else can I help you with?
From where does the blood get oxygen?
The blood gets oxygen from the lungs during the process of respiration. Oxygen is inhaled into the lungs, where it diffuses into the bloodstream via tiny air sacs called alveoli. This oxygenated blood is then pumped by the heart to the rest of the body.

Why does blood return to the lungs?
The blood that returns to the lungs is rich in Carbon Monoxide (CO). CO exits the blood via the lungs when it returns to the lungs, and Oxygen (C2O) will enter the blood. The blood then goes back to the heart and it gets pumped through the rest of the body.
