Through the blood. Oxygen is drawn in by the lungs, binds to hemoglobin proteins within erythrocytes (aka red blood cells), and the erythrocytes are then pumped by the heart throughout the body, supplying all cells with oxygen.

In which animals does oxygen reach all cells through the process of diffusion?

Flatworms and jellyfish don't have a circulatory system and in these animals, the oxygen is diffused through the cells.


Where do the red cells drop the oxygen off?

Red blood cells drop off oxygen to tissues and cells in the body through the process of diffusion in capillaries. Oxygen molecules bind to hemoglobin in red blood cells in the lungs and are released when the red blood cells reach tissues with lower oxygen concentration.


Where do red blood cells drop off oxygen?

Red blood cells release their oxygen in the capillaries. The oxygen diffuses across the capillary wall to reach the body tissues.

How does a blocked artery cause less oxygen to reach the heart?

Arteries carry blood, oxygenated by the lungs, to the cells of the body. Since the heart is a large muscle, its cells need oxygen too. When one of the arteries supplying the heart with oxygenated blood is blocked ("occluded") the oxygen cannot reach the cells supplied by that artery.


Which systems work together to provide the bodys cells with oxygen?

The circulatory system and respiratory system work together to provide the body's cells with oxygen and to carry away the carbon dioxide that cells generate as respiratory waste. The respiratory system gets air into lungs and in the small air sacs were oxygen is transported into the blood, and the circulatory system carries the oxygen in the red blood cells and delivers it to cells in need of oxygen. The oxygen is stored in the hemoglobin in the blood, and the blood is pumped around the bodily organs by the heart, releasing oxygen at the organs.


Describe how oxygen gets from the air to the cells of the foetus?

Oxygen from the mother's blood diffuses across the placenta into the foetal blood. This oxygen is then carried by red blood cells to the cells of the foetus through the circulatory system. The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs at the capillaries, allowing oxygen to reach the foetal cells for cellular respiration.
