It goes to your lungs just like all other air.when air goes into any body part it always goes to your lungs.And oxygen isn't in the air,carbon dioxide is.

∙ 9y agoThe pathway of oxygen starts with the nose to the trachea, goes into the lungs and diaphragm. Carbon dioxide is exhaled from the lungs.

nasal cavity -> pharynx -> larynx -> trachea -> bronchi -> bronchiole -> alveoli

How is oxygen carried through the bloodstream?
Oxygen can travel dissolved in the plasma, but mostly it binds to a specific molecule - hemoglobin - found in red blood cells.
Is the nutrients travel through the deoxygenated blood to reach the body cell?
Nutrients and oxygen diffuse through the capillaries, due to diffusion.
What is the process of normal breathing beginning with the brain?
Beginning in the brain, nerves travel down through neck to the chest cavity and the diaphragm. Once the breathing impulses are sent, the muscles act automatically.
What is the path of oxygen from outside the body to the bloodstream?
First you breath in air (which is not pure oxygen, only about 19% is oxygen) which goes to the lungs. The lungs have a huge surface area (the size of a football field!) covered in capillaries which blood flows though. The oxygen from the air is absorbed in the capillaries and is transfefred to the blood. The blood releases the waste Carbon Dioxide into the lungs which is breathed out.The path of air into the lungs is as follows: the nasal cavity then pharynx then trachea then the bronchus then the bronchioles then to the alvioli and to the bloodstream.From the capillaries of the alveoli, the blood travels through progressively larger veins of the pulmonary circulation, until it reaches the pulmonary vein and then the left atrium. From there, the oxygenated blood goes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle, then is pumped out the aorta. The oxygenated blood, with oxygen attached to the hemoglobin in the red blood cell, moves to body tissues through progressively smaller arteries of the systemic circulation. It moves out of the blood and into tissues via diffusion through the thin-walled capillaries, then into cells where it is used in cellular respiration.
Do hormones travel through the blood stream?
Hormones travel In the blood because they need to travel in the body.
How does oxygen travel through our bodies?
Oxygen travels through our bodies from inhailingair which is Oxygen
Where does sound travel fast through?
Oxygen
What does not travel through matter?
Energy nitrogen and oxygen
Does oxygen travel through veins?
Yes, though attached to haemoglobin.
Through which part of the respiratory system does air generally travel first?
The respiratory tract begins with the mouth or the nose, and then the pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus, bronchioles, and then the oxygen exchange occurs in the alveoli.
Why can't earth's oxygen travel through space?
Earth's atmosphere, including the oxygen, is bound to Earth by gravity.
Where can't sound travel through?
A vacuum, there are no oxygen particles for it to make vibrate.
How does the oxygen you inhale travel into your cells?
When you breathe it in the oxygen runs around your body and passes through the walls into your blood stream
Does oxygen travel all around your body to your cells through your blood vessels?
yes
Can sound travel through oxygen?
Sound can travel through fire as it does not directly affect sound. Sound travels in waves which can pass through solid objects but this limits the distance they can go.
List the organs air will travel through as you breathe in order?
Nares, nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus, bronchioles, alveoli
